New psychoactive substances (NPS) are increasingly being used in secure mental health settings. Within these settings, NPS use presents a range of challenges and staff currently lack adequate training to manage these challenges. The purpose of this paper is to explore nursing staffs’ perception of the challenges of working with patients who use NPS and to explore nursing staffs’ perception of their training needs in relation to NPS.,A cross-sectional qualitative design was employed. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with eight nursing staff from a medium secure unit (MSU).,A thematic analysis identified three overarching themes: “There Will Always Be Something”, “We Are Doing Our Best” and “If We Know More, We Can Do More”. The findings describe how nursing staff manage NPS use at present, and their perceptions of how training could improve their management of NPS use in the future.,The findings suggest that MSUs require a local policy for managing NPS use. The research implies that staff training programmes should recognise the existing methods staff use to manage NPS use. The findings also suggest that NPS interventions should target the whole peer group and not just the individual using NPS.,This paper contributes to the limited literature on NPS. The findings demonstrate the importance of developing evidence-based mechanisms for managing NPS use. Changes to practice are suggested, with the view of developing ways in which staff currently manage NPS use by complementing this with specific training on NPS.

与使用新的精神活性物质的患者合作时所面临的挑战:在中等安全性病房中进行的定性研究

新的精神活性物质(NPS)越来越多地用于安全的精神健康环境中。在这些情况下,使用NPS会带来一系列挑战,并且员工目前缺乏足够的培训来应对这些挑战。本文的目的是探讨护理人员对与使用NPS的患者进行合作的挑战的认识,并探讨护理人员对与NPS相关的培训需求的看法。采用横断面定性设计。对来自中等安全部门(MSU)的八名护理人员进行了半结构化访谈。主题分析确定了三个总体主题:“总会有什么”,“我们正在尽力而为”和“如果我们知道更多,我们可以做更多”。调查结果描述了护理人员目前如何管理NPS的使用,以及他们对培训如何在未来改善他们对NPS使用的管理的看法。研究结果表明,MSU需要管理NPS使用的本地政策。研究表明,员工培训计划应认识到员工用于管理NPS的现有方法。研究结果还表明,NPS干预应该针对整个同龄人群,而不只是针对使用NPS的个体。研究结果证明了开发基于证据的机制来管理NPS使用的重要性。建议对实践进行更改,以期通过对NPS进行专门培训来补充目前员工使用NPS的方法。研究表明,员工培训计划应认识到员工用于管理NPS的现有方法。研究结果还表明,NPS干预应针对整个同龄人群,而不仅仅是使用NPS的个体。研究结果证明了开发基于证据的机制来管理NPS使用的重要性。建议对实践进行更改,以期通过对NPS进行专门培训来补充目前员工使用NPS的方法。研究表明,员工培训计划应认识到员工用于管理NPS的现有方法。研究结果还表明,NPS干预应该针对整个同龄人群,而不只是针对使用NPS的个体。研究结果证明了开发基于证据的机制来管理NPS使用的重要性。建议对实践进行更改,以期通过对NPS进行专门培训来补充目前员工使用NPS的方法。研究结果证明了开发基于证据的机制来管理NPS使用的重要性。建议对实践进行更改,以期通过对NPS进行专门培训来补充目前员工使用NPS的方法。研究结果证明了开发基于证据的机制来管理NPS使用的重要性。建议对实践进行更改,以期通过对NPS进行专门培训来补充目前员工使用NPS的方法。
