Background:

  • Forensic psychiatric nursing is claimed to be a specialist nursing area.
  • This paper challenges the assertion that forensic psychiatric nursing has achieved specialty status.

  • To refute the claims of forensic psychiatric nursing's specialty status.
  • To identify necessary requirements for forensic psychiatric nurses to achieve specialty status.

Main Methods:

  • Literature examination to assess documented specialist knowledge and skills.
  • Analysis of the current role and practice of forensic psychiatric nurses.

Main Results:

  • Evidence supporting specialist knowledge and skills in forensic psychiatric nursing is not documented in the literature.

  • The current practice does not meet the criteria for a recognized nursing specialty.

    • Conclusions:

    • Forensic psychiatric nursing has not yet achieved specialty status.
    • Three key requirements are proposed: consolidating patient containment and care roles, re-establishing the nurse-patient relationship as foundational, and expanding practice to address offense issues within this relationship.
