- A newly licensed nurse asks a nursing recruiter for a description of nursing practice in the psychiatric setting.
What is the nurse recruiter‘s best response?
a. The nurse primarily serves in a supportive role to members of the health care delivery team.
b. The multidisciplinary approach eliminates the need to clearly define the responsibilities of nursing in such a
setting.
c. Nursing actions are identified by the institution that distinguishes nursing from other mental health
professions.
d. Nursing offers unique contributions to the psychotherapeutic management of psychiatric patients.
CORRECT ANSWER: D
Professional role overlap cannot be denied; however, nursing is unique in its focus on and application of
psychotherapeutic management. Neither the facility nor the multidisciplinary team define the professional
responsibilities of its members but rather utilizes their unique skills to provide holistic care. Ideally, all team
members support each other and have functions within the team.
