Abstract
BACKGROUND When implementing new interventions into clinical practice, it is of great importance to investigate the implementation process to better understand factors promoting and impeding the implementation to stimulate engagement and sustainability of the intervention. It is essential to consider perspectives both from the health professionals delivering the intervention and those receiving the intervention to be open to their suggestions for enhancing the dissemination and implementation of the intervention. The aim of the study was to evaluate adoption, acceptability and appropriateness of a person-centred group intervention (PCGI) from the perspectives of facilitators and participants with mental illness in mental health outpatient services right after delivery. METHODS A qualitative interview study design was used. Interview data from three individual interviews, one group interview with facilitators and 16 individual interviews with participants were analyzed through content analysis. RESULTS As described in the following three categories, the facilitators and participants found the PCGI overall useful and meaningful to deliver and receive: (1) application of a PCGI in clinical practice, (2) balancing the facilitator role and (3) establishing and maintaining a safe relationship. CONCLUSION Facilitators and participants found the form and structure of the PCGI useful and meaningful. Some participants dropped out as they did not feel comfortable in a group setting. The components in the sessions, questions on cards and reflection sheets together with peer-to-peer interactions provided a safe environment. However, facilitation from facilitators requires appropriate skills and qualifications, which must be provided by the hospital together with supervision and the possibility for peer feedback and exchange of experiences.

Abstract
This study explored the impact of an innovative approach to clinical supervision for mental health nurses which integrates Safewards, named Group Reflective integrated Practice with Safewards - GRiP-S. Qualitative data was collected through 10 individual semi-structured interviews with nursing staff who had participated within the clinical supervision approach. Interviews provided insights into the nursing staff's perception and experience of the clinical supervision approach. Through interpretive phenomenological analysis six themes emerged (i) illuminating embodied practice of Safewards, (ii) building confidence through empowering connections, (iii) creating a culture of positive change, (iv) identifying internal motivation for and external barriers to supervision engagement, (v) navigating a global pandemic, and (vi) the transformative role of reflection. Findings demonstrated that the GRiP-S approach assisted mental health nurses' adoption of Safewards interventions in practice, while supporting the development of a cohesive staff team. The impact of COVID-19 within the study setting was addressed and nurses identified how the Safewards model assisted in navigating challenges during this time. Findings further supported prior research on the role of the supervisor and supervisee relationship. This study supports the integration of Safewards within reflective clinical supervision for mental health nursing staff to assist in Safewards fidelity and nursing staff personal and professional development.

Abstract
The Safewards model is used across various mental health settings to reduce incidents of conflict and containment and its efficacy in reducing the use of seclusion and restraint, improving patients' experiences of care, and enhancing safety within clinical settings is well documented (Bowers, Journal of Psychiatric & Mental Health Nursing, 21, 2014, 499). However, there are barriers to successful implementation, including level of staff buy-in (Baumgardt et al., Frontiers in Psychiatry, 10, 2019, 340; Price et al., Mental Health Practice, 19, 2016, 14). This mixed-method study assessed the impact of adopting a Safewards model within a clinical supervision framework in an approach, named Group Reflective integrated Practice with Safewards (GRiP-S), which integrates Safewards theory within the clinical supervision framework. Both quantitative and qualitative data were collected using the questions derived from the Manchester Clinical Supervision Scale -26© (Winstanley & White, The Wiley International Handbook of Clinical Supervision. John Wiley & Sons Ltd, 2014). A total of 67 surveys and eight interviews were completed by nursing staff. Overall, the results showed that the GRiP-S approach improves the implementation of Safewards and nurses' clinical practice. Nursing staff satisfaction with clinical supervision and Safewards improved post GRiP-S pre-GRIP-S- 69.54 (SD 16.059); post-GRIP-S 71.47 (SD 13.978). The survey also identified nursing staff's perception of GRiP-S in the restorative and formative domains of clinical supervision improved. The restorative mean score pre-GRiP-S was 28.43 (SD 5.988) and post-GRiP-S 29.29 (SD 3.951). The formative mean score pre-GRiP-S was 20.10 (SD 5.617) and post-GRiP-S 20.63 (SD 13.978). The qualitative results further explained the satisfaction levels and the changes seen in perception domains. The GRiP-S approach reported (i) improved therapeutic relationships and patient centred care, (ii) improved staff communication and teamwork, (iii) barriers to GRiP-S engagement, and (iv) assistance with the change process. The results indicate that the GRiP-S approach had a positive impact on Safewards delivery and supports ongoing change of practice.

Abstract
AIM The aim of the study was to investigate nurses' skill acquisition in Guided Self-Determination according to the Dreyfus model of skill acquisition and Patricia Benner's studies based on the same model. BACKGROUND Globally, person-centred care is acknowledged as an essential aspect of quality in health care. To succeed with person-centred care methods and skills are necessary. Guided Self-Determination is a person-centred method developed in the field of nursing. The method represents a new way of skill acquisition requiring knowledge of how skills are acquired, unfolded and best supported in Guided Self-Determination. DESIGN Qualitative interview study. METHOD From January 2019 to August 2019, 16 nurses were interviewed about their experiences of learning and using Guided Self-Determination in three different gynaecological settings: cancer, endometriosis and sexual abuse. The study was registered with the Danish Data Protection Agency (file no.: VD-2018-445, I-Suite no.: 6700). RESULTS The spectrum in Guided Self-Determination acquisition skills ranged from following schematical procedures in a rigorous way to an extended understanding of exploring and supporting the person-centred concept. Two main themes were identified: Elements in the transition of knowledge from theory to practice and Aspects associated with Guided Self-Determination skill acquisition. CONCLUSIONS Nurses practised Guided Self-Determination at different levels. Quantity of practising Guided Self-Determination was not the only aspect determining rapid progression. The Dreyfus model lacked several explanatory components of skill acquisition, such as personal dispositions, preferences, motivation, personal values and context.

Abstract
Mental health care professionals are at risk of experiencing burnout. This cross-sectional study aims to investigate burnout in two settings: open and closed psychiatric wards, and two professions: registered nurses and social healthcare assistants in eight psychiatric wards in Denmark. A total of 114 professionals completed the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory and a demographic questionnaire. No statistically differences in burnout in professionals working in closed and open wards were found. However, we found professionals to score highest on personal and work-related burnout and lowest on client-related burnout. This indicates that patients may only play a minor role in burnout in health professionals.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES Health care has seen a shift towards person-centred care to encompass the entirety of a person's needs and preferences, but research is sparse on healthcare professionals learning and using person-centred care. AIM To investigate nurses' experiences of learning and using the person-centred method guided self-determination (GSD) in three different gynaecological settings and to determine whether, and potentially, how new tasks introduced by the GSD method influence their professional identity. DESIGN A qualitative interview study conducted between January 2019 and January 2020. METHOD We conducted 16 semi-structured interviews with nurses educated in using GSD. Applying inductive and deductive reasoning, we analysed the interviews using thematic analysis. The study was registered with the Danish Data Protection Agency (file no.: VD-2018-445, I-Suite no.: 6700). RESULTS The analysis generated three main themes with two subthemes each: (a) prerequisites and barriers to learning and using GSD in terms of personal factors and organisational and method-related factors; (b) new knowledge and understanding of illness with the subthemes expanded understanding of illness and a different relationship; and (c) nursing undergoing change with the subthemes, a new role and a professional self shaped through interaction with other professions. CONCLUSIONS Although other professionals may have either supported or challenged the use of GSD, most nurses indicated that it supplemented their professional role and identity as they gained new knowledge about person-centred challenges and felt more confident. When introducing GSD in nursing, the organisation must not only consider individual characteristics, multidisciplinary collaboration and communication but also plan individual education and supervision. This is necessary because all these factors affect how a new professional role is constructed and adopted, not to mention how it influences the nurses' perception of their professional identity and use of GSD. Establishing a helpful person-centred environment must also be considered.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The culture of acute mental health wards is often dominated by medical models of care despite some patient dissatisfaction with care in these settings and a demand for increased access to psychosocial interventions. Research has found that psychosocial interventions can improve a number of patient and staff outcomes, however, implementation within these settings is often challenging. OBJECTIVES The aim of this review was to provide a comprehensive synthesis of the barriers and facilitators to implementing psychosocial interventions on acute wards, in order to develop a list of recommendations for embedding psychosocial interventions within the ward culture in acute settings. METHODS Databases were systematically searched using search terms related to acute mental health wards and psychosocial intervention implementation from inception to December 2019. Thirty-nine studies (forty-three papers) that explored the implementation of psychosocial interventions on adult acute mental health wards using qualitative methods met inclusion criteria. Data relating to barriers and facilitators to implementing psychosocial interventions extracted from the results sections of the papers were synthesised using the COM-B model. RESULTS AND CONCLUSIONS We conclude that to address barriers to the implementation of psychosocial interventions, services should provide clear information to patients regarding the benefits of engagement, and additional training for staff. A shift in ward culture is required and can be achieved through the recruitment of empathic implementers, together with providing staff with protected time for delivery of psychosocial interventions with clear accountability for intervention delivery through the provision of clearly defined roles.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION Endometriosis is a chronic disease affecting 5-10% of women in the reproductive age. Despite surgical and medical treatment, many women struggle with pain, infertility, sexual dysfunction, depression, distress and reduced workability, affecting their overall quality of life. The usual follow-up procedures may not support the women's self-management of this condition. Therefore, person-centred empowerment-based approaches are needed. AIM To assess if the implementation of the Guided Self-Determination method targeted women with complex endometriosis appeared feasible and supported self-management. METHODS Guided Self-Determination was offered to 10 out-patients with complex endometriosis. Each of the women had five conversations based on prefilled disease-specific reflection sheets. A qualitative evaluation was conducted in 2016-2017 covering semi-structured, telephone interviews and focus group interviews, which were analysed using thematic analysis. Additionally, we assessed if the women changed the self-reported questionnaires, Endometriosis Health Profile 30 and the Patient Activation Measure from before and after the conversations. RESULTS We identified four themes: feeling alone with the disease; establishing a meaningful relationship with healthcare professionals in a traditional hospital setting; person-specific knowledge facilitated new behaviours and; accepting a chronic condition - the beginning of a process. All dimensions of the Endometriosis Health Profile 30 and the Patient Activation Measure appeared to improve at two weeks and so did almost all the dimensions of Endometriosis Health Profile 30 after 1 year. CONCLUSIONS The implementation of the Guided Self-Determination method appeared feasible and the women developed self-management skills in relation to endometriosis and its symptoms. This was achieved by increasing insight into their needs and behaviours and gaining new knowledge about the disease itself. The before-and-after assessment suggested benefit of the intervention, but this should be further tested in a randomised trial.
