rapport, through the proper utilization of therapeutic communication techniques
and maintenance of non-judgemental attitude by allowing the patient to have
ample time to process and express his thoughts you will be able to help him
identify his strengths and weaknesses that will be vital upon the course of
treatment. The patient’s thought process and actions must always be monitored
in order to provide a tailor-fitted therapy and management of the mental health
disorder.Triggering factors should be identified and appropriate management
should be presented. Furthermore, there is a need to monitor the psychological
state, as service users are at an increased risk for self-violence toward self or to
others, which may lead to suicidal attempts if not attended immediately. Assisting
the patient to be aware of or deal with the disorder diagnosed is highly essential
in order to ensure an improved judgement and insight regarding his status.
Health teaching is extremely important for the patient. The student nurse must
help educate and demonstrate to the patient the essence of compliance and
adherence to the management established to avoid relapse of the condition.
