Just published: In this editorial, I suggest that things go wrong in MH #crisisteams when staff members are not given the space or time to reflect on anxieties arising from the work. And that we should reclaim supervision as a safe space to do this. 👀 Read for free here: doi.org/10.1111/jpm....

Kicking off #NorQual today with keynote speaker, Patrick Callaghan who is focussing upon mental health nursing through the lens of Geertz. Fascinating focus upon the nursing gaze.

What do you do when you see parallels between a musical's key messages (Wicked) and the work you do? Clearly you pull in some fellow academics to write an article about it... 😁 On the eve of the release of #WickedForGood, read our article for free here: doi.org/10.1111/jpm....

My latest article critiques the use of standardised checklists in nurse education to assess competence in practice. I suggest that esp. in the UK, they promote a form of goalodicy; 'proficiency-chasing' over those more meaningful learning opportunities better aligned to MHNursing. t.co/m3GhklCRDu

Participants needed for my research study!! I'd love to hear from those who have recently received treatment from a CRHT team. Looking specifically for people who experience challenges commonly associated with the diagnosis of 'Personality Disorder' (although diagnosis not necessary!)
