Skills and Resources of Psychiatric Mental Health Nurses to Support a Long and Uncertain Recovery Journey: A Grounded Theory Approach.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
introductionThe 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.
aimThis study explored how nurses provided recovery-oriented care for people with mental illness in long-term, complex, and uncertain care settings.
methodA grounded theory approach was used to analyse data from 14 interviews. Reporting followed the Consolidated Criteria for Reporting Qualitative Research.
resultsThe core category identified was 'redefinition of care', describing a dynamic process in which nurses revised their understanding, adjusted their perspectives, and created new meanings in practice. Key strategies included burden management, exploring new contexts and openness towards uncertainty. DISCUSSION: The findings suggest that high-quality care provision extends beyond technical skills, to emotional resilience, interpretive openness and relational flexibility. LIMITATIONS: This study used nurses' retrospective narratives of past cases where recovery progressed. Ongoing cases were not explored. IMPLICATIONS: Nurses could remain present and responsive even with no immediate solutions, a trait described as 'negative capability'. Supporting this reflective stance may be key to providing quality care. RECOMMENDATIONS: Educational approaches potentially strengthening recovery-oriented care include participatory workshop opportunities that foster pluralistic thinking, dialogue and openness towards uncertainty.
