title: [Training for speciality nurses in psychiatry].
abstract: Nurses in psychiatry are confronted with particular issues. To ensure quality care, these nurses need specific training. This must include a theoretical grounding, but above all a transfer of knowledge from more experienced nurses to novices. The training plan implemented at Thuir general hospital in France aims to fulfil these requirements.
