Abstract
As more patients seek help for acute mental health conditions in all sectors of health care, the demand for nurses trained to care for this population is outpacing the supply. Nursing schools have not been successful in educating students with the knowledge, skills, and attitudes needed to provide care. The purpose of this study was to integrate mental health concepts throughout the entire curriculum in a two-year associate degree nursing program and examine its effects on developing mental health literacy in prelicensure students.
