The consultation process for the Chief Nursing Officer's review of mental health nursing is in full swing. Neil Brimblecombe and Alison Tingle report on progress so far

In February, Chris Beasley, the Chief Nursing Officer for England, announced that a review was to take place of mental health nursing. The review seeks to answer the general question, ‘How can mental health nurses (MHNs) make the greatest contribution to the care of people with mental health problems in the future?’ and will produce a strategy for mental health nursing in NHS funded care in England.
