The lived experience of psychiatric-mental health nurses working with dissociative disorder inpatients: A phenomenological inquiry

This study sought to address this scarcity of literature by shedding light on the lived experiences of nurses who directly care or have cared for this population. Participants were individually interviewed along the lines of training, education, and personal experiences, and responses were analyzed to uncover themes found in multiple interviews. The result was a clear emphasis on improving education about the unique needs of individuals with dissociative disorders in order to improve the nursing care of this population.
