It fosters role clarity, care coordination, and team cohesion. However, unclear hierarchies, heavy workloads, and interpersonal conflicts can disrupt collaboration, affecting professional relationships and patient outcomes. This study explores experiences of and reflections on prerequisites for and barriers to interprofessional communication in psychiatric outpatient settings. While previous research has described barriers, few studies have examined how communication itself constitutes professional roles, boundaries, and collaborative practices. To address this gap, the study applies the Four Flows framework-membership negotiation, self-structuring, activity coordination, and institutional positioning-as an interpretive lens. Using vignettes and semi-structured interviews with 11 clinicians in psychiatric outpatient units, the study analyzed how communication shapes and is shaped by interprofessional collaboration. Analysis identified four key categories: systemic barriers and organizational challenges; social dynamics and interprofessional relationships; supportive leadership and team culture; and patient focus and involvement. These categories intersect across the Four Flows, illustrating how communication acts as a structuring process rather than a neutral tool. The overarching theme,\" From Separate Paths to Shared Care,\" highlights how clinicians enact person-centered collaboration through communicative practice in psychiatric outpatient settings.</p>","PeriodicalId":14664,"journal":{"name":"Issues in Mental Health Nursing","volume":" ","pages":"891-901"},"PeriodicalIF":1.4,"publicationDate":"2025-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145000646","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on qualitative interviews with the nurse, four service users, and four family caregivers, as well as non-participant observations, the study highlights how the nurse enacted four interrelated roles: wounded healer, educator, coordinator, and advocate. Through shared narratives and empathetic engagement, the nurse fostered emotional resonance and challenged internalized stigma among participants. Her integration of family caregivers and mobilization of external resources further strengthened the recovery environment. The study applies the \"wounded healer\" framework to examine three stages of role transformation-trauma recognition, pain transformation, and transcendence-within a culturally collectivist setting. Findings suggest that even a single nurse with lived experience can play a transformative role in recovery-oriented care, promoting both individual healing and broader social inclusion. By highlighting the therapeutic potential of integrating experiential knowledge into nursing practice, this study offers practical insights for expanding peer support models in under-resourced mental health systems.

This study aimed to expand provider assessment in Family Medicine and specialty settings in Appalachian Upstate South Carolina (AUSC) to include sexting and depression screening. AUSC depression rates are among the highest in the nation, highlighting disparities in the region. This nurse-led mixed-method, exploratory descriptive study included adolescents 11 to 18 years old and providers from an AUSC healthcare system, including nurse researchers, nurse practitioners, and physicians. Following education on sexting, depression, and screening, providers in Family Medicine and specialty settings administered the Intimate Images Diffusion Scale and PHQ-2 to adolescents at episodic visits. Concurrently, providers completed a survey on the barriers and facilitators to talking with parents/guardians (P/G) and adolescents about sexting with each participant, including provider comments. Providers also gave P/G a sexting education notebook to take with them. Surveys were analysed using SPSSv24 statistical software, and comments were analysed using thematic analysis. Over 50% screened positive for sexting, and over 40% of those who sexted screened positive for depression. Providers reported few barriers, with P/G (71.9%) and adolescents (81.3%) talking about sexting. The themes were P/G openness to conversations about sexting, P/G awareness of sexting risks, P/G concerns about sexting, adolescent openness to conversations about sexting, and provider facilitators and barriers to discussing sexting.
