    Abstract Objective: Psychological distress may relate to higher health services use. However, data on psychological distress and health services use among rural older adults are limited. This study investigates psychological distress in older adults (aged ≥60) and evaluates the relationship between psychological distress, multimorbidity and health services utilization.
    Design: A cross-sectional design was adopted using data on older adults (≥60) (n = 5920) from the South Australia's 2013-2017 population health survey. The Modified Monash Model MM2-7 was used to designate rural areas. The dataset provides information on reported physical health conditions, psychological distress, and patterns of health services use. The Kessler Psychological Distress Scale (K10) was used to compute scores for reported mental health disorders in this population.
    Results: The mean (SD) age of the study participants was 72.1 (8.1) years. Women constituted 58.8% of the sample. The mean (SD) score for psychological distress was 12.5 (3.6). One-fourth (33.7%) report one-chronic condition, 20.4% reported 2 chronic conditions and 13% had more than 3 chronic conditions. High psychological distress was associated with female gender (χ
    Conclusion/implication: Psychological distress and multimorbidity were independently associated with health services use. Thus, psychological distress, particularly in the presence of multimorbidity, presents an opportunity for intervention by clinicians that may reduce the demand on rural health services.

    Abstract Recovery-oriented mental health practice guidelines recommend regular consumer involvement in care plans, yet in many acute settings, these are not routinely created thereby compromising accountability. This study explored the impact of workplace culture on the capacity of mental health nurses to involve consumers in care planning and consequently to work accountably. A focused ethnography was undertaken in one Australian inpatient unit involving mental health nurses and other health professionals. Data were derived from in-depth semistructured interviews with 12 nurses and 6 months of nonparticipant observation of multidisciplinary meetings and clinical handovers. Workplace culture had an impact on mental health nurses' accountability practices. A culture that prioritized reduction in length of stay resulted in less recovery-oriented care. Health professionals who paid more attention to crisis and risk management resulted in fewer opportunities for consumer-involved care planning.

    Abstract It is mental health consumer's human right to lead a fulfilling life as they are empowered to actively manage their recovery. This can be facilitated through care planning, yet research suggests that the care plan is not routinely created, discussed, or updated in acute mental health settings. Research on care planning and the role of the mental health nurse highlights the importance of therapeutic communication in care plan development. This paper argues that the lack of meaningful care plan discussions between consumers and mental health nurses in an acute setting is a limitation to the practice of fully accountable mental health nursing care. We explore this limitation in quality care provision by examining literature on accountability and conclude that in mental health nursing, accountability is frequently enacted through an overarching focus on the organizational need to manage risks, rather than on therapeutic engagement.
