Most mental health services acknowledge there is some way to go before this becomes a reality. Achieving recovery-focused services is dependent on genuine partnership with people with lived experience of significant mental health challenges. This is easier said than done. Challenging the traditional ‘clinician knows best’ attitude is imperative.

Achieving this requires a conceptually different approach to the education of nursing students.
