[Thinking about family carers in terms of their experiential knowledge].

Despite well-established recommendations and psycho-education programmes, the health of family carers is most often impaired, which means that the support they provide is seen only in terms of burden. A phenomenological approach based on strength-based care shows that they develop skills and strategies for the well-being of their loved one, and are nurtured by a sense of hope that enables them to acquire experiential knowledge.

[Thinking about care to enhance its meaning].

Advanced nursing practice is one of the avenues proposed by politicians to meet the new needs of people being cared for in a rapidly changing healthcare system. It is therefore interesting to conceptualize the theoretical foundations of these new practices, in order to reveal their meaning.

[Advanced practice nursing in psychiatry and mental health].

With more than 500 advanced practice nurses in psychiatry and mental health (APN-PMH) graduating by 2023, this new profession is shaking up the codes of interprofessional functioning and the care of people suffering from mental disorders. It seems important to shed some light on the issues involved in the implementation of the APN, but also to present the training, roles and certain theoretical inspirations that make the APN-PMH a multicultural actor in care.

[Nursing clinical judgement in situations of restraint].

Coercive measures such as seclusion and restraint, which are sometimes used in psychiatry, remain current practices.

In situations of seclusion and restraint, these professionals focus in particular on the nurse-patient relationship, the patient's safety and the respect of their humanity.
