Published: October 2024

Objective: To examine the specific scope of practice of community mental health nurses (CMHNs) across CMHN roles and care contexts.

Methods: Systematic literature searches in CINAHL, PubMed/Medline, Google and Google Scholar, supplemented by a search of various publishers' databases. Data were analyzed and synthesized using the framework analysis method.

Results: This paper identifies two role profiles in CMHN practice that describe distinct functions in the outpatient care of people with mental illness: (A) Primary Care CMHN and (B) Specialized Care CMHN. For each role profile, contextual factors and specific role content are described and analyzed for similarities and differences.

Conclusions: The described role profiles can serve as a template for the development of curricula in the field of CMHN. It is important to consider the national context as well as the current and future need for psychosocial care.

Plasma phosphorylated tau biomarkers open unprecedented opportunities for identifying carriers of Alzheimer's disease pathophysiology in early disease stages using minimally invasive techniques. Plasma p-tau biomarkers are believed to reflect tau phosphorylation and secretion. However, it remains unclear to what extent the magnitude of plasma p-tau abnormalities reflects neuronal network disturbance in the form of cognitive impairment.

Background: The rapid evolution of large language models (LLMs), such as Bidirectional Encoder Representations from Transformers (BERT; Google) and GPT (OpenAI), has introduced significant advancements in natural language processing. These models are increasingly integrated into various applications, including mental health support. However, the credibility of LLMs in providing reliable and explainable mental health information and support remains underexplored.

Background: Mental health concerns have become increasingly prevalent; however, care remains inaccessible to many. While digital mental health interventions offer a promising solution, self-help and even coached apps have not fully addressed the challenge. There is now a growing interest in hybrid, or blended, care approaches that use apps as tools to augment, rather than to entirely guide, care.

Background: Psychologists have developed frameworks to understand many constructs, which have subsequently informed the design of digital mental health interventions (DMHIs) aimed at improving mental health outcomes. The science of happiness is one such domain that holds significant applied importance due to its links to well-being and evidence that happiness can be cultivated through interventions. However, as with many constructs, the unique ways in which individuals experience happiness present major challenges for designing personalized DMHIs.
