Abstract The general expectation that patients should be willing to trust nurses is rarely explored or challenged despite claims of diminishing public trust in social and professional institutions. Everyday meanings of trust take account of circumstance and suggest that our understanding of what it means to trust is contextually bound. However, in the context of health care, to trust implies a particular understanding which becomes apparent when abuses of this trust are reported and acknowledged as scandals. The predominant assumption in the literature that trust is something that occurs between equally competent adults cannot explain trust in nursing precisely because of the unequal power relationships between patients on the one hand and healthcare professionals on the other. Moreover, the tendency to conflate terms such as trust, reliance, confidence and so on suggests that confusion permeates discussions of trust in nursing. In this paper, I argue in support of Annette Baier's requirement of good will (or lack of ill will) as the essential feature of trust, and outline how this account (i) enables us to make the necessary distinctions between trust on the one hand and 'trust pretenders' on the other; and (ii) lays the foundations for understanding trust in relationships, such as those between patients and nurses, where power differentials exist. 相似文献

Several quality of life instruments were considered for use in a Greek mental health environment. Subjective Quality of Life Profile was chosen as it was easy to complete and covered the issues raised by patients with schizophrenia through interviews. Confirmatory factor analysis gave credence to the four-dimensional structure identified by the original authors. Patients with schizophrenia were generally satisfied with their quality of life, found the items in the instrument important and were optimistic about expectations for change. Age, gender, education, marital status and years of sickness were not statistically significant in a general linear model with quality of life as the outcome for the 27 core questions. There were some statistically significant results for the three disease-specific questions; positive expectation was correlated positively with education and negatively with years of sickness. 相似文献

Accurate evaluation of patients' psychotic state is essential to decrease psychotic symptoms and protect the patient and others. The aim of this paper is to conduct a literature review in order to access the utility, reliability and validity of current rating scales that are purported to measure psychotic acuity of inpatient population. A search of a number of electronic databases was undertaken to retrieve potential articles that focus on the measurement of acute psychosis. We identified some conceptual and theoretical problems when using a scale that is monitoring the progress of discharge and assesses the outcome of treatments. The findings revealed a difficulty in finding a commonly agreed definition of acute psychosis and a problem of obtaining frequent measures, and the frequency of measurement and fluctuation in psychosis. The most dominant scales in assessing psychosis were reviewed: the Global Assessment of Functioning Scale, the Brief Psychiatric Rating Scale and the Positive and Negative Symptom Scale. Several issues related to the scales' inter-rater reliability and construct validity remain unexplored. None of these scales addressed the conceptual and theoretical problems that we identified. A new scale that will measure acuity of symptoms in inpatient settings needs to be created. 相似文献

In recent years there has been a growing interest in the use of football as a vehicle for mental health interventions. This paper outlines some of the ways that mental health service providers have begun to develop strategies with football clubs, the Football Association and government departments that involve playing or watching football and placing mental health services in football clubs. The paper also looks at how some attempts are being made at regional and national levels to develop and bring together services that use football as a vehicle for mental health service delivery. 相似文献
