DataSheet1_Exploring the Needs of Stakeholders For Successful Patient Involvement in Mental Health Education.pdf

ObjectiveThis scoping review aims to comprehensively map the existing literature on Patient Involvement (PI) in mental health education (MHE), identify the needs of mental health (MH) educators, students, and patients with lived experiences of MH challenges and develop a checklist for successful implementation of PI in MHE.
MethodsConducted between November 2023–January 2024, this review followed PRISMA-ScR guidelines in databases PubMed, Scopus, ProQuest Dissertations and Theses, and WHO. Eligibility criteria adhered to PICOS guidelines, and screening was done via Covidence. Content analysis was carried out to develop a checklist.
ResultsEleven qualitative articles were found, revealing two superordinate stakeholder needs categories: Interpersonal and Course Needs. Interpersonal Needs included Self-determination, Communication and Collaboration, Recognition and Support, and Holistic approach. Course Needs comprised Content, Organisational, and Teaching. A checklist was developed to support PI in MHE.
ConclusionGuidelines for successful PI in MHE should prioritize patient autonomy, foster collaboration, provide support, ensure inclusive course content, and promote patient involvement in educational processes. Study limitations, such as potential bias, underscore the need for future research to enhance evidence-based practices in MHE.
