How to use research to talk about mental health
Carley Moore Lead practice nurse and advanced nurse practitioner, General practice in Oxfordshire, Oxford Brookes University
Nurses can lack the confidence to start conversations about mental health with patients, but taking part in research can be a help as a practice nurse explains
I have been a general practice nurse for 16 years and an advanced nurse practitioner for the past four. One of my major concerns has always been seeing patients with mental health issues– I felt I wasn’t the right person to help so would refer the patient to their GP.
