| Abstract | Introduction: Consumers can often be found bored, with limited activities on mental health inpatient units. Some of the barriers to consumer engagement in leisure activity on mental health inpatient units can include a lack of motivation and consequently encouragement by staff to participate, limited activity offered beyond business hours, a lack of activities provided, belief staff ‘do not have the time’, limited scope under the MHA and limited individuals to participate in activity with. Objectives: This study aimed to develop practice principles, which is a list of key values and learnings to support the implementation of leisure activity in mental health inpatient units. The development of the practice principles aims to generate discussion among policymakers and change in governing policy and legislation to improve consumer care. Approach: The study’s approach is a review of the current evidence, the Australian National Mental Health Standards and the recovery model supported the development of practice principles. The practice principles were shared with a group of stakeholders to ascertain feedback on whether the recommendations were practical, realistic and meaningful to the context. Practice Implications: Ten principles have been formed more broadly so mental health inpatient units can interpret, adapt and implement meaningful leisure activities for their consumers. The practice principles suggest that an increase in meaningful leisure activity may assist with the recovery of acutely unwell consumers. Conclusions: There must be a cultural shift in the way mental health inpatient units are run to make meaningful change. Engagement in meaningful activity can assist in reducing incidences of aggression, seclusion and restraint. |
