Abstract:
'Outdoor activity' training was introduced into a P2000 Mental Health Branch Programme as a means of developing a range of personal and interpersonal qualities and skills. In this article, the authors outline the process of setting up this venture, identify aspects of the curriculum relevant to outdoor activities, giving examples of some of the activities and make links to nursing practice. Finally, an evaluation of this project is offered which suggests positive outcomes as a result of these teaching and learning strategies.
