Enhancing Safety
and Outcomes
Making meaningful connections
between nurses and psychiatric
patients is the core of the patient
care model and treatment while
hospitalized. The WakeBrook
Hospital inpatient nursing team
began implementing the
Recovery Model in 2018. The
Recovery Model is a holistic,

person-centered approach to
mental health care that provides
a framework for nurses to partner
with patients to create hope
and treatment plans through
shared control. To date, this
approach has yielded a 68%
decrease in the numbers of
seclusions and restraints used
on the unit. This decreases the
risk of injury to patients and
staff, thereby creating a safer
environment of care for everyone.

The model speaks to building
relationships with the patient where
their idea of a meaningful life is central
to how care is individualized.
