I have been asked by the President to open a discussion on out-patient clinics for mental disorders. Although these have existed for many years in some places, it is believed that they ought to be more general, and that one or more should be connected with every mental hospital. Their establishment has now become an urgent duty in view of the passing of the Mental Treatment Act.

The nurse's perception of competence in caring for patients with mental disorders are implementing nursing care, Standard Procedures Operational (SPO) and nursing modality therapy. While nurses encounter obstacles when applying competence in the implementation of nursing documentation, limited facilities, the lack of effectiveness management system, limited human resource and the condition of the patient. The findings of this study can be used by nurses as a material to develop documentation formats more effectively and hospital management are expected to pay more attention to aspects of the guidance and supervision of the implementation of competence. Research suggested based on the findings is to analyze the relationship between supervision and nurse’s performance and satisfaction Keyword: Nurse, Competencies, Mental Disorder

Care And Treatment

On 31 January 1938, Sir James Crichton-Browne died a few months after his 97th birthday. In him the Royal Society lost its oldest Fellow, both in age and in membership, for he was elected Fellow in 1883, Charles Darwin being one of his proposers. His father, Dr W. A. F. Browne, who was the first Medical Superintendent of the Crichton Royal Mental Hospital at Dumfries, was largely responsible for the high standard of care and treatment of the insane for which this institution has since been famous ; later he became Commissioner in Lunacy in Scotland. It was therefore not surprising that after qualifying in medicine in Edinburgh University at the age of 22, his son decided to devote himself to the study of mental disorders. After serving in junior posts in various county Mental Hospitals he was appointed in 1866 Medical Superintendent of the West Riding Asylum, at Wakefield, a post he held until 1875. It was here his most valuable researches and pioneering work was done.

Theory Of Discourse

The matters pertaining to mental disorders are complex as they are not only related to the medical professionalism, patients, their families and society but they are also related to the stigma they have and the protection of their dignity and status. Stigma is like a prison in the social relation constructed by the apparatuses that contribute to development, the regime of knowledge, and modernism on behalf of normalization. By applying the point of view of cultural studies, namely siding with those who are suppressed, this present study is intended to identify the form of the stigma which the psychiatric patients have resulting from the practice of power of the medical authority implemented by the Mental Hospital. Observation and in-depth interview methods were employed in the present study. The data were collected through life story and library research. The collected data were analyzed descriptively, qualitatively and interpretatively using the relevant critical theories such as the theory of discourse, the theory of deconstruction, and the theory of hegemony. The result of the study shows that there are two forms of the stigma which the psychiatric patients suffer from; they are the public stigma (the stigma brought about by society) and the self-stigma (the stigma brought about the patients and their families). The factors which contribute to the stigma of mental disorders can be classified into two; they are the external and internal factors as the translation of the hegemony of power and the domination of the authority of social and medical apparatus over the psychiatric patients leading to the social and identity gap. This shows the form of the struggle involving power in order to strengthen the domination of the apparatus in different aspects of life. The psychiatric patients cannot speak and are so marginalized that they have almost never been heard. The society’s social control through the saving mission of the Mental Hospital is implemented through the nursing practice and the controlling mechanism it performs in which the authority of the medical doctors is dominant enough to show that they have power in the Mental Hospital.

The following paper is the result of experience gained during two and a half years' work at The Retreat, York.It was prepared at the time that public attention was being focused upon the Mental Treatment Act, 1930. One of the most striking features of that Act was the provision that any person—pauper or otherwise—could be received into any mental hospital by applying for admission voluntarily. The removal of the bar of certification was widely welcomed; this welcome was believed by the writer to be partly a sentimental one. So little was known of any of the legal and medical difficulties which the voluntary boarder system had produced during the forty years it had been in fairly constant use in the registered mental hospitals, that these problems were seldom referred to when the Mental Treatment Act was under consideration.

Potential Use

Since the passing of the Mental Treatment Act of 1930 the use made of Section 5, dealing with temporary treatment without certification, has varied considerably in different areas, and has, in general, been much less than had been hoped for. In a discussion of this section of the Act held at a quarterly meeting of the Royal Medico-Psychological Association on November 20, 1934, Sir Hubert Bond stated that, while in the opinion of the Board of Control temporary patients should form 15% of the admissions to a mental hospital, in 1933 the proportion of such patients to total admissions was 6·5% in registered hospitals and licensed houses, and only 1·8% in the public mental hospitals.

Heterogeneous Class

The Mental Treatment Act of 1930 has brought within the purview of the mental hospital that large class of psychoneurotic and “early psychotic” patients who formerly drifted despairingly in the wilderness between orthodox medicine and the quack. The purpose of this paper is to show how an attempt is being made in this hospital to deal with this heterogeneous class of patients by means of psychotherapy, carried out by the ordinary medical staff of the hospital, without interference with their routine duties.
