Intuition in psychiatric-mental health nursing.

ABSTRACT A descriptive study was done to explore how psychiatric-mental health nurses define and act on intuition in clinical practice with children and adolescents, and to identify supports for and barriers to taking such action. Interviews of 16 nurses were tape-recorded, transcribed, and analyzed for manifest and latent content. Findings support previous studies about intuition in nursing practice and have implications for psychiatric-mental health nurses working with high-risk populations of children and adolescents.
