[Nurse, a profession for forging a bond]

Learning care in psychiatry is a long process which takes several years. Faced with patients with borderline personality disorder, the caregiver must build the structure to serve as a basis for the therapeutic relationship, no matter how unfathomable it is. Faced with this emotional dependency expressed by the patients, the bond remains fragile, as are the emotional boundaries which the caregiver must not cross. It is important to work on the elasticity of the relationship, a real care approach which constantly needs to be reinvented.
