A mental health nurse is a specialist with particular skills and knowledge who is competent, on the basis of a mental health disorder, to assess one’s state of health and analyse health risks, advise a patient and their loved ones, and develop everyday means of coping. A mental health nurse works closely with the treating doctor (incl. psychiatrists), psychologists and other specialists, where the most suitable and effective solution is found for a person’s health problems by applying different knowledge. We suggest turning to a mental health nurse for an initial consultation in order to specify one’s state of health and receive suggestions for where to turn next.
