Frances Monet Carter Evans examines nursing's contribution to community mental health in this professional text published in 1968. The discussion considers prevention, health counselling, recognition of difficulties and referral, placing the nurse within a wider network of community services and helping relationships. Attention to therapeutic interaction and patients' experiences connects the practical work of nursing with questions about emotional support, social relationships and participation in everyday life. The book also explores how knowledge and skills associated with hospital care can inform work beyond institutional settings. Reflecting the language, research and professional concerns of its period, this volume offers students of nursing history and mental health services a view of an evolving role at a significant stage in community-oriented care.
