Abstract

Positive perceptions and attitudes need to be instilled in the nurse's mind to be more caring and responsible when dealing with psychiatric patients. The differences of working environment will affect perceptions in which nurses in the mental health environment are able to have more negative perceptions and attitudes than other nurses. This study aims to determine the description of perceptions and attitudes of psychiatric-mental health nurses to patients with mental disorders in the inpatient unit. The simple descriptive design with a survey method was used as the research design. This study was conducted to 66 nurses who served in the inpatient unit at Tampan Mental Institution of Riau Province and taken through the total sampling by considering the inclusion criteria. A set of questionnaire that has been tested for its validity and reliability was used as the measuring tool. The analysis used was the univariate analysis of distribution. The results showed that 34 nurses (51.5%) had negative perception to psychiatric patients and 32 nurses (48.5%) showed positive perception to psychiatric patients. In addition, 36 nurses (54.5%) showed a positive attitude to psychiatric patients and 30 nurses (45.5%) showed negative attitudes toward psychiatric patients. The results of this study recommend that the hospital institutions should improve motivation programs for the psychiatric-mental health nurses such as a continuous education program that is linear, seminars with different nurses to improve the same perception and positive attitude of the nurses.Keywords : attitude, mental disorder, perception,
