The Realising Recovery learning materials have been designed to support mental health workers to develop their recovery focused practice. They build on The 10 Essential Shared Capabilities (Scotland) learning materials and are designed to provide further learning to enable mental health workers to work alongside service users as they create their own recovery journeys. The learning materials will also be useful for mental health service users and carers either in their role as trainers involved in delivering the learning or as learners exploring and developing their understanding of recovery focused practice and what they can expect from mental health workers and services. The learning materials aim to enable workers to make changes in their practice and support change by presenting key topic areas in relation to recovery and practical guidance to help workers develop new roles, relationships and ways of working with service users and wider communities. The learning materials aim to be practical and action focused and provide links to wider reading and resources. The six modules cover understanding recovery, using self to develop recovery focused practice, enabling self-direction, providing person-centred support, sharing responsibility for risk and risk-taking, and connecting with communities.

This framework pays close attention to the purpose of acute mental health care, the impact of the environment in which acute care is provided (whether this is in hospital or community), and the impact of acute care on peoples’ rights, recovery and relationships. The framework sets out a range of capabilities for all nurses working in acute care and then a further set of capabilities as nurse’s progress their careers. The framework is divided into four key areas: rights, values and recovery focused practice, supporting recovery from acute crisis, making a difference in acute care, and sharing positive risk taking. The framework can be used by nurses and service managers to guide personal development planning, by service users and their families/carers to explain the key skills, knowledge and attitudes that they should expect from nurses in acute care settings, or by education and training organisations to guide the development of training and educational activities and programmes specific to acute care.

The starting point for this framework is that recovery is possible and that service users and their families, friends and carers have a right to expect individualised mental health services that promote and foster recovery. The framework outlines the knowledge, skills and values mental health nurses require to work in a recovery focused way with people who use mental health services and their friends, family and carers. This framework should be seen as part of a process in supporting the development of rights, values and recovery focused practice. The purpose of this framework is to identify the knowledge skills and values mental health workers need to practice in a recovery focused way, identify the variety of learning that will support workers, assist mental health workers and their supervisors/managers in personal development planning, and to communicate to people who use mental health services and their friends, families and carers what they should expect from mental health workers in terms of recovery focused practice. Although written for nurses the content of the framework is equally applicable to other staff working in mental health in a variety of sectors and settings.
