Accountability in mental health nursing.
Accountability for nursing practice is implicit and the clients' interests are paramount. Nurses are in the best position to offer information to the client, therefore their approach will have a significant effect. A research-based nursing approach offers informed choice and empowerment and ethically, this is in the interests of everyone, particularly the client.
