Whose structure is it anyway?
While "structure" is a term that is widely used in psychiatric nursing practice, few nurse authors have clearly defined the concept. This article offers an operational definition of structure, and proposes a theoretical basis to the client's need for structure. A case presentation, as well as characteristics of an effective structure, are also described.
