Grieving and funeral practices form an integral component of the culture of indigenous people. Although studies on specific indigenous grief support frameworks could not be found, the authors did find certain studies on the grieving and funeral practices of indigenous people. The study identified a lack of integrative literature reviews on these practices. A review was therefore needed to enable a comprehensive overview that would guide the establishment of an indigenous grief support framework.

The importance of recovery-focused practice is widely recognised. However, limited attention has been paid to how nurses continue to engage reflectively and creatively in long-term care settings.

Identifying the causes of anxiety and depression among nursing students at an early stage is crucial for enhancing their mental health. The impact of negative life events on mental health has been insufficiently studied in nursing students, and the specific connections between these events and mental health are not yet clear.

Personal recovery, a dynamic process of rebuilding identity and purpose beyond mental illness, remains underexplored within China's mental health system, which predominantly prioritizes clinical recovery.

Artificial intelligence (AI) and virtual reality (VR) technologies are increasingly integrated into psychiatric nursing education, presenting both significant opportunities for innovation and profound risks of dehumanisation.

Better mental health service engagement (MHSE) was identified to be an effective way to prevent relapse and worsening of the severe mental disorders (SMDs). There is a lack of evidence on the relationships between family function and MHSE among people with SMD.

Nursing observations are a critical component of psychiatric services, playing a key role in ensuring patient safety and maintaining high standards of care.

As global populations age, anxiety disorders in older adults are emerging as a hidden yet consequential public health challenge. Despite a sharp rise in total burden, these disorders remain under-recognized at the individual, clinical, and policy levels.

Emotional blackmail is a persistent workplace stressor that can negatively influence nurses' psychological well-being.

Mental health nurses can experience trauma in their personal and work lives; however there is no prior qualitative research describing these experiences.

This reflection uses poetry to shed light on the timeless resilience and spiritual cadence of our four seasons, using them as metaphors for the lived experiences of individuals navigating mental health challenges and the often unseen emotional labour of psychiatric and mental health professionals. Each stanza evokes a season not only as a backdrop but also as a psychological landscape-embodying phases and states of hope and perseverance, challenges and uncertainties, as well as quiet renewal and loud survival. For clinical practitioners, especially allied mental health professionals, the piece serves as both an affirmation and a gentle reminder: recovery does not always arrive with grand gestures, but may dwell in the most devilishly tiny and inconspicuously familiar everyday moments of attention and connection, agency and patience, as well as grace and care. It invites clinicians to remain attuned to the quiet, often deeply personal 'miracles' unfolding within their care-moments of resilience, clarity, or simple presence-and to recognise their role in holding space for such transformations. Grounded in recovery-oriented values, the poem aims to underline that the healing process, especially in mental health, is often iterative and nonlinear; and that sometimes, the most meaningful changes occur when they are sought and seen, found and held, embraced and treasured-even if only slowly, quietly, and privately.

Nurses caring for children with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) encounter unique challenges that can affect their psychological well-being and professional efficacy. Cognitive-Behavioural Strategies (CBS) are a promising approach to bolster the psychological resources of these nurses.
