Produktbeschreibung

This is the story of a mental health system that is crumbling. This is the story of the nurses, who arrive believing they can make a difference, but get worn down by impossible workloads, apathetic governments, and huge resistance to systemic change. But above all, this is the story of the patients. People who have entered our psychiatric system in dire need of help, but who are failed every day by hastily made diagnoses, overreliance on medication, and inconsistency of care.

In The Closed Ward, we follow Bella Jackson during her time as a trainee mental health nurse, as she learns the intricacies of our NHS psychiatric system. Vividly written and full of compassion, this book takes us room by room through a mental health hospital, and uncovers the stories held within its walls.

We meet a rich cast of patients whose stories are at once unique and all too common. But we also meet those who offer a window of hope. Practitioners who are using more holistic therapies, experts challenging how we teach mental health and those who are rallying to change how we view mental illness.
