Abstract
Nursing students must increasingly deliver quality care to the psychiatric mental health population during their educational experiences and as graduate nurses. This review examines experiences and adds practical knowledge on the development of teaching strategies for nursing programs, supporting nurse educators, future new nurses, and nurse leaders in psychiatric mental health nursing. Fourteen studies from the CINAHL, PsycInfo, Medline, PubMed, and Web of Science databases were included. Two themes emerged: mental health nursing modality experiences and student perspectives. Rigorous scientific studies are needed highlighting the influence and effectiveness of psychiatric-behavioral and mental health nursing clinical education.
