Losing a Mother Battling Cancer: Perspectives of an Academic Psychiatric Nurse.
Purpose: This paper aimed to share the subjective experiences of an academic psychiatric nurse who lost her mother to terminal cancer and to reveal the impact of this loss on her professional identity and nursing practices.
Background: The terminal cancer process affects not only patients but also their family members emotionally. Especially caregiving family members may experience emotional stages similar to the grieving process. Although psychiatric nurses develop emotional resilience through their professional knowledge and skills, they may struggle to balance their professional and personal identities when caring for their relatives. These overlapping roles can deepen the grieving process and directly influence coping mechanisms.
Methods: This study is a first-person narrative based on my personal experiences as a psychiatric nurse caring for a terminally ill parent.
Keypoint: This narrative offers a unique and profound perspective on the personal grief experience shaped by the intersection of caregiving roles.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Psychiatric and Mental Health Nursing is an international journal which publishes research and scholarly papers that advance the development of policy, practice, research and education in all aspects of mental health nursing. We publish rigorously conducted research, literature reviews, essays and debates, and consumer practitioner narratives; all of which add new knowledge and advance practice globally.
All papers must have clear implications for mental health nursing either solely or part of multidisciplinary practice. Papers are welcomed which draw on single or multiple research and academic disciplines. We give space to practitioner and consumer perspectives and ensure research published in the journal can be understood by a wide audience. We encourage critical debate and exchange of ideas and therefore welcome letters to the editor and essays and debates in mental health.
