My research project
Investigating therapeutic involvement in relationships between ward staff and service users in adult forensic mental health inpatient settings: evidence identification and initial scale development.Research question:
What constitutes a therapeutic relationship (TR) including over- and under- involvement, between nursing staff and forensic inpatients and how could this be measured?
The overall aim of this project is to understand what constitutes a TR between these individuals to develop an item bank which could, in future, be used to develop a scale to measure the quality of TRs. This will be achieved by conducting three separate but interrelated studies.
There are four overall objectives:
1: To understand how TRs between nursing staff and forensic patients have been conceptualised and measured across nursing settings by conducting a scoping review of published scales.
2: To understand the experiences and perspectives of service users and nursing staff nationally, in forensic settings, of TRs by conducting a review of relevant qualitative literature.
3: To understand how TRs, including over- and under-involvement, are conceptualised by nursing staff and service users in UK forensic settings by conducting a qualitative study using semi-structured interviews informed by the above reviews.
4: To use data from the above studies to develop an item bank that may be used to develop a new scale for use in adult forensic inpatient settings to measure the quality of TRs between nursing staff and service users.
