Abstract
Psychiatric nurses were given training in schema‐focused therapeutic approaches. They were then applied in a forensic setting with a focus on the needs of those patients diagnosed with a ‘personality disorder’. The paper discusses and reflects on the results of the approach and its relevance to the training of psychiatric nurses.
