  7. Introduction Two major purposes: • To introduce the concepts of mental health and mental illness • To describe the historical development of the role of the psychiatric nurse.

  8. Perspectives of Mental Health Nursing • The concept of caring for the sick, ‘nurturing’, or ‘nursing’ existed since times immemorial, the mentally ill were tortured, persecuted, ridiculed, neglected and shunned.

  9. Before 1860, the emphasis in psychiatric institutions was on custodial care. • Untrained people controlled (not cared) the mentally ill. • Psychiatric care as such was non-existent. • But psychiatry evolved through ages and attained the stage that is today.

  10. Concept of mental health • Mental health is a positive state in which one is responsible, displays self-awareness, is self-directive, is reasonably worry free, and can cope with usual daily tensions. • Such individuals function well in society, are accepted within a group, and are generally satisfied with their lives.

  11. MENTAL HEALTH- Definition • Mental health is defined as a state of well-being in which every individual realizes his or her own potential, can cope with the normal stresses of life, can work productively and fruitfully, and is able to make a contribution to her or his community. WHO,2014.

  12. Cultural beliefs influence how mental health and mental illness are determined. • For instance, acceptable behavior in one cultural group may or may not be tolerated in another group.

  13. Factors Influencing Mental Health • Inherited characteristics • Nurturing during childhood • Life circumstances

  14. INDICATORS OF MENTAL HEALTH • In the health care and public health arena, more emphasis and resources have been devoted to screening, diagnosis, and treatment of mental illness than mental health. • Little has been done to protect the mental health of those free of mental illness.
