Natalie’s PhD study explored the meaning of safety from the perspective of people who had experienced admission to an acute mental health inpatient setting. Natalie has interviewed consumers from NSW, Australia about what safety means to them. She has published several papers and presented at international conferences about her findings, which pertain to the influence that Nurses, the environment and consumers’ personhood have on consumers’ perception and experience of safety in an acute mental health unit.
