Reference no: EM133229236

Introduction:

Wellbeing is a key part of recovery (Te Pou, 2018). Wellbeing encompasses all dimensions of health: tinana (physical), hinegnaro (mental and emotional), whanau (social) and wairua (spiritual) (Durie, 1994).

There is ample evidence that people with mental distress, addiction and loss of wellbeing often experience inequitable responses from services as well as poor life and health outcomes (O'Hagan, 2018). The mental health nursing role involves health promotion, working collaboratively with consumers, being hopeful, understanding individual perspectives, and appreciating the social determinants of mental health (Wand, et al., 2022).

Let's get real supports working in a trauma informed way (Te Pou, 2021). Trauma informed care provides a robust framework from which to review nursing practice (Isobel & Edwards, 2017), and is an essential approach for working with Maori (McClintock, et al., 2018).

Method:

Drawing on nursing and other relevant literature and the use of brief examples from your clinical practice:

- Use either a Maori, Pasifika, or other understanding of wellbeing to critically discuss the social determinants of health and the impact on wellbeing for individuals and communities.

- Critically discuss how mental health and addiction nurses contribute to the recovery journeys of service users.

- With reference to recovery principles, critically discuss how mental health and addiction nurses can promote least coercive practices and environments and reduce re-traumatisation.
