| dc.description.abstract | This integrative literature review examines the nursing literature around the suitability of forensic psychiatry as a clinical placement for undergraduate nursing students with no previous clinical experience in psychiatric/mental health nursing. A search of the nursing literature using various databases, CINAHL, ERIC and Web of Science, that addressed the researcher’s area of interest finds there to be a paucity of literature. Four of the five retrieved articles address the clinical placement of undergraduate BScN students in forensic psychiatry. The fifth article describes a collaborative partnership between a School of Nursing and a forensic Psychiatric Unit. Further research is suggested to evaluate the suitability of forensic psychiatry as a suitable place of learning about mental health/illness for undergraduate BScN students. | en_US |
