Outline of Final Research Achievements	We developed a training program for psychiatric nurses to protect the "rights of patients". This research is divided into three stages. Stage 1: An interview survey of psychiatric nurses' awareness and practice of "rights of patients" was conducted and analyzed qualitatively. Stage 2: Based on the interview survey, we created a self-reported questionnaire and surveyed 1,500 psychiatric nurses nationwide about their awareness of "patient's rights" and trends in practice. Stage 3: Based on the nationwide survey using questionnaires, a three-time training program was developed. Furthermore, the effectiveness of the training contents was verified by conducting questionnaires and interviews. The training was 90 minutes long and focused on group work. The contents of the training were summarized in a CD-R together with the operation manual and sent to about 180 facilities.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements	「患者の権利」を中心にした精神科看護師への研修プログラムは今まで開発されたことはなく、患者の権利が阻害されやすい精神科看護領域において、最初の研修プログラムである。現在、精神科病院における不祥事が多く顕在化している状況を踏まえると、患者の権利を守り患者を尊重した看護を実践する上で、意義のある研修プログラムである。また、研修で知識を身につけることだけでなく、いかに実践に反映させるかが主眼に置かれた研修内容であるため、実践に反映されやすいと言える。医療者中心の医療・看護から患者中心の医療・看護を推進する原動力となると考えられる。
