Abstract
As defined by the World Health Organization (WHO), health includes mental wellbeing
(World Health Organization, 2004) and therefore is an important part of nurse
training. Like all placement environments, the mental health placement environment
provides learning opportunities where student nurses can put theory into practice
and develop clinical confidence, but the uniqueness of the environment could leave a
student uncomfortable and with a poor learning experience (Gaberson, Oermann, &
Shellenbarger., 2014).
