“…In the acute stage, psychiatric nurses can make it easier for patients by facilitating meaningful daily occupation. This has been shown to be important even for patients detained for compulsory treatment, and it supports patients towards better managing their daily lives after they are discharged (Lilja & Hellzén 2007).…”

“…The importance to patients of being motivated and invited to participate in their care even though they were not receiving treatment voluntarily is supported by earlier research (Johansson & Lundman 2002, Kuosmanen et al . 2007, Lilja & Hellzén 2007). Being persuaded to accept compulsory admission is not associated with humiliation in the same way (Svindseth et al .…”

The purpose of the study was to describe patients' conceptions and experiences of care in compulsory treatment for acute onset of psychosis. Twelve patients with experience of compulsory treatment were interviewed in 2008-2009, and phenomenographic analysis was used to analyse the data. Two descriptive categories emerged in the results: receiving needed support and perceiving respectful care. Patients perceived that coercive interventions were positive if they were given good care, if they were given the shelter they needed, if they got help with understanding and if the setting was healing. Patients felt respected if they were treated like human beings, if they were allowed to retain as much of their autonomy as possible and if they were invited to participate even though they were under compulsory treatment. The results show that it is important to prevent patients from being traumatized during compulsory treatment and to take advantage of patients' inner resources. Patients' experiences of compulsory treatment can form the basis for preparing an individual action plan for future compulsory treatment. Individual action plans could empower patients during compulsory treatment and improve their experience of care.

“…For example, patients diagnosed with borderline personality disorder diagnosis are stereotyped as ''difficult'' and ''demanding'' by staff (Gallop, 1988) and long-term schizophrenics can still be seen as ''empty shells'' without any ability to think, feel, or act (Davidson & Stayner, 1997), and are therefore judged by staff as being stupid, incompetent, or ignorant (Lilja, Ö rdell, Dahl & Hellzén, 2004). Nurses also tend to overrate their own importance when it comes to psychiatric patient's well-being (Lilja & Hellzén, 2007). However, psychiatric patients have stressed their opinions that the care providers should be 'genuine' humans in their meeting with the patient (Peilert, Asplund & Norberg, 1995), based on an individual relationship.…”

“Being good or evil”: Applying a common staff approach when caring for patients with psychiatric disease

This study was performed to gain a deeper understanding of how psychiatric staff, when caring for patients with psychiatric disease, experience situations that include a common staff approach directed toward an individual client. Nine nurses were interviewed. The interviews were analyzed with a phenomenological-hermeneutic method in order to illuminate the lived experience of applying a common staff approach. The results revealed several meanings: shedding light on carers' mutual relationships; being deserted by nurse colleagues; being aware of one's own basis of evaluation, and that of others; being judged by the patient as good or evil; and becoming sensitive to the patient's suffering. The comprehensive understanding was that the nurse has a difficult choice*to focus on relations with one's colleagues or to focus on the situation of the patient, who seems to suffer when a common staff approach is used.
