Mainstream mental health practitioners view psychosis as enduring, and recovery tends to be limited to symptoms' alleviation. We conducted an earlier study on perspectives of mental health professionals (including nurses) on mental health recovery; results revealed that the concept of functional recovery predominated nurses' insights. The current study aims at reaching a consensus among nurses on the key factors contributing to mental health recovery of individuals experiencing psychosis using the Delphi approach. A purposive sample of 21 mental health nurses with different skills mix was recruited. To gauge consensus, three iterative online Delphi rounds were conducted, and the average percentage of majority opinions was followed to determine consensus. Questions with a consensus rate below 69.7% were included in the next round. Consensus among nurse experts has increased across rounds for the following items: Provision of Person-Centred Care Approach, Therapeutic and Empowering Mental Health Nursing Care, Consumer Related Factors, Promoting Social Inclusion and Advocacy and Enhancing family involvement in Service User's Recovery Journey. The identified attributes have the potential to optimise resource allocation and prioritisation, steering efforts toward recovery-oriented mental health care with an emphasis on psychosocial interventions and community support.
