Manal S. Alzahrani

Abstract

Many mentally ill patients receive treatment from different psychiatric specialties, such as psychologists, psychiatrists, or mental health counselors. Nurses can also be valuable in participating in psychiatric care plans due to their close observation and contact with the patient. The psychiatric nursing role has expanded over the years. Historically, psychiatric nurses' role was limited to providing patient care and pharmacotherapy. Nowadays, psychiatric nursing roles become more effective with individuals, families, and communities through assessing, planning, implementing, and evaluating the nursing care plan designed according to individual and community needs.
