Foundations of Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing for GNM Students | Nursing Process-Based Management, Case Correlation and Model Question Paper for Diploma and BSc Nursing

Foundations of Psychiatric Mental Health Nursing is a comprehensive, easy-to-understand textbook created specifically for General Nursing and Midwifery (GNM) students, filling a genuine gap for a dedicated diploma-nursing psychiatric nursing text. Organized strictly as per the INC syllabus, every disorder is structured around the nursing process approach so students move logically from assessment through nursing management. Ample clinical correlation and illustrations run through all 17 chapters, making complex psychiatric concepts genuinely simple to grasp for first-time learners of the subject. Each of the 17 chapters breaks down a psychiatric nursing topic - from the history of psychiatry and the therapeutic nurse-patient relationship to psychopharmacology, organic mental disorders, substance use disorders, schizophrenia, mood disorders, personality disorders, child and adolescent psychiatric disorders, community mental health, psychiatric emergencies, and forensic psychiatry - into clinically-correlated, nursing-process-based explanations that prepare students for both theory exams and ward postings. Who This Book Is For: GNM Students: studying Mental Health and Psychiatric Nursing as part of the INC-mandated diploma-nursing curriculum. BSc Nursing Students: covering the same psychiatric nursing subject at the graduate level. Nursing Tutors and Educators: teaching the course with a text structured specifically for the diploma-nursing level. Practicing Nurses: working in psychiatric and mental health clinical settings who need a clinically-correlated reference. Why This Book Helps: Fills a genuine gap in diploma-nursing material: solves the classroom problem of psychiatric nursing content scattered across bulky reference texts never written for the diploma-nursing level. Simplifies complex psychology concepts: breaks down every disorder into plain-language, nursing-process-based explanations rather than dense psychiatric theory. Builds exam and ward readiness together: nursing-process-structured chapters prepare students for both theory exams and clinical postings, not one or the other. Covers the full revised INC syllabus in one book: every chapter is mapped exactly to the syllabus, from foundational concepts through forensic psychiatry.
