Abstract

In the light of rapidly changing mental health care provision, education programmes need to adequately prepare practitioners for the future. Legislative and policy initiatives, the professional and research literature, and local mental health priorities are reviewed to guide educational developments. The reliance on skill development associated primarily with problem removal and short term care is questioned. Current and future trends in mental health nursing education challenge educationalists to place greater emphasis on the development of skills to empower clients with severe and persistent mental health problems in diverse care settings.
