Introduction
The report is going to discuss about the collaborative mental health nursing practice
with healthcare (Reeves et al. 2013). The Collaborative Mental Health Initiative aims to
enhance the ability of the primary healthcare providers ' to meet consumers ' mental health
needs through the collaboration between health care partners, including the primary and
the mental healthcare professionals, families, consumers, and the caregivers. The key terms
are the nurse consumer relation that reflects the relationship between the nurse and the patient
suffering from mental disorder (Baker & Durham 2013, pp.713-718). The other important
term in this report is living with the effects of a mental disorder which means that the
patient’s and the professionals learn from the lived experiences. Therefore the purpose of this
report is to develop the understanding of the need of the lived experience of a patient
suffering from mental disorders in order to develop a collaborative and person-centred mental
health nursing practice (Bee et al. 2015, pp.1834-1845).
Discussion
Collaborative mental healthcare defines a variety of the practice models in which
customers, their families, and caregivers, along with health care suppliers from a variety of
main health care and mental health settings each with distinct knowledge, experience,
training, and expertise (Fox & Reeves 2015, pp.113-118). Collaborative mental healthcare
defines a variety of practice models in which customers, their families, and caregivers, along
with health care suppliers from a variety of main health care and mental health settings each
with distinct knowledge, experience, training, and expertise. These, as well as the extra
difficulties of stigma and disempowerment of clients, are confronted by mental health
services within a hierarchical and medically dominated structure (Supper et al. 2015, pp.716-
727).

In addition, underdeveloped cross-sectoral and coordinated reactions can hinder the
delivery of mental health services (Davy et al. 2014). The resulting tensions lead to the safety
of the patient, which was connected to preventable. Collaborative mental healthcare in
the primary healthcare environments reduces the burden of mental illness by standardizing
care and increasing access to the mental health services, mental health promotion and
wellbeing (Pfaff et al. 2014, pp.4-20). The World Health Organization
(WHO) defines collaborative practice as "the clinical or the non-clinical
healthcare practice which occurs when various employees from distinct professional fields
provide extensive services by dealing with patients, their relatives, caregivers and
communities to produce the greatest quality of care across environments". Collaborative care
includes sharing viewpoint, not merely a perspective of an agreement (Baker & Durham
2013, pp.713-718). Counsellors, therapy case managers, nurses, psychiatrists, and other
mental wellbeing clinicians serve individuals best when they are sharing the same view and
accountability in meeting the requirements of individuals and ensuring therapeutic progress
towards the defined objectives of therapy (Pfaff et al. 2014, pp.4-20).
Clinical staffing is intended to assist in service planning, consult on safety and risk
problems, discuss behavioral concerns, cooperate on behavioral and mental health
assessments, address the family and the social dynamics, considering referral alternatives,
and sharing updates for critical case (Supper et al. 2015, pp.716-727). In latest years,
interprofessional health care cooperation has been high on the political agenda. Nevertheless,
progress has been comparatively slow despite several public reports. In addition to
developing valid studies in this area, several structural and organizational difficulties need to
be resolved in order to accelerate the pace of change (Pfaff et al. 2014, pp.4-20). Healthcare
includes patient involvement, family involvement, and a varied team of often extremely
skilled health care professionals. To provide outstanding care, the engagement of all these
