METHOD: Narrative literature review. Content analysis. FINDINGS: The significance of the therapeutic relationship is quite similar for both nurses and patients in psychiatric hospital units. Nevertheless, several factors may separate the two positions: the time available for the relationship, the negative perceptions on the part of both parties, and the insecurity of the setting. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: Increased knowledge and understanding of the significance of the therapeutic relationship from the perspective of nurses and patients would allow the strengthening of areas of mutual interest.application/pdfeng© Elsevier http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.apnu.2016.03.001Metge i pacientPsiquiatriainfo:eu-repo/semantics/articlehttp://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.apnu.2016.03.001info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess
