2	Towards understanding nursing within multidisciplinary mental health teams that serve vulnerable youth Slater, Suzanne 31 August 2012 (has links) Registered nurses and registered psychiatric nurses are members of multidisciplinary mental health teams that address the assessment and treatment of vulnerable youth. The phenomenon of interest for this study is nursing's distinct contribution to a multidisciplinary team in this clinical domain. An interpretive description drawing on the perspectives of seven nurses and seven clinicians from the professions of psychiatry, psychology, social work, child and youth care, and registered clinical counselling provides insight into understanding nursing's distinct contribution (NDC) to multidisciplinary mental health teams that serve vulnerable youth (MMHTSVY). Six major themes and multiple subthemes were inductively derived. The findings make explicit nursing’s contribution to MMHTSVY in ways that are meaningful to the clinical practice. / Graduate mental health nursing psychiatric nursing psychosocial nursing addictions nursing vulnerable youth at risk youth youth at risk multidisciplinary team interdisciplinary team multidisciplinary mental health team psychiatric mental health nurse nursing's distinct contribution interpretive description constructivist health management special adolescent population incarcerated youth
