Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to identify the process of support by hospital nurses for discharged schizophrenia patients. <br>Methods: Participants were 17 proficient or expert psychiatric nurses. A semi-structured interview was conducted, through which the researcher investigated the types of support provided by nurses. Data were analyzed using a qualitative approach. <br>Results: Hospital nurses provided support through the following five steps: [As a sympathizer; understanding the patient's tasks and predicting the post-discharge life of each patient], [Mediating between the patient and the family, with consideration for the happiness of both the patient and his/her family after discharge], [Establishing a relationship of trust with the patient, ensuring the patient's sense of security, and considering his/her impaired ability to establish rapport], [Supporting the patient so that he/she can accept his/her illness], and [Bridging the gap between the community and the hospital, including nursing in the hospital, as part of the process]. <br>Conclusions: Nurses made predictions regarding the patient's life after discharge and provided support. With the nurses' support, the patient acquired a lifestyle that he/she could maintain. Nurses bridging the gap between the community and hospital enabled the patient to accept support after discharge.
