This Test Bank encompasses various topics related to mental health and psychiatric nursing. It begins with an exploration of foundational theories and concepts, including mental health and illness, theories, and psychobiology. The subsequent section focuses on the practical aspects of psychiatric nursing, such as treatment settings, cultural considerations, and legal and ethical concerns. The following unit delves into psychosocial nursing tools, covering the nursing process, therapeutic relationships, communication, and stress management. The table of contents then proceeds to examine different psychobiological disorders, including childhood and neurodevelopmental disorders, schizophrenia spectrum disorders, mood disorders, anxiety disorders, trauma-related disorders, and more. Trauma interventions are discussed next, addressing topics like suicide, crisis, violence, and sexual assault. The subsequent section concentrates on interventions for special populations, including older adults, individuals with serious mental illness, and forensic nursing. Finally, other intervention modalities are explored, such as therapeutic groups, family interventions, and integrative care.
