Up to 80% of persons with schizophrenia experience sleep problems (Anderson & Bradley, 2013). On most adult inpatient psychiatric units, the evening routine is dedicated to getting patients to sleep. During this time, many nurses engage in what Geach (1987) described as “patient-staff ritual” (p. 100), that typically includes administration of medications with sedative effects that may persist into daytime. Exploring naturally occurring bedtime rituals geared toward sleep preparation may provide meaningful insight into patient's needs (Geach, 1987). | | Link for e-copy: | http://www.psychiatricnursing.org/ | | Record link: | http://libsearch.siu.ac.th/siu/opac_css/index.php?lvl=notice_display&id=27291 |
