In England and Wales, with the introduction of the 2007 amendments to the Mental Health Act (MHA)1983, new roles and responsibilities became available to nurses and allied health professionals (Mental Health Act, 2007; National Institute for Mental Health in England, 2008). Where previously the mental health nurse's role under the MHA had primarily been to care for detained patients and to use limited powers of detention under section 5(4), the 2007 Act enabled nurses to become both Approved Clinicians (ACs), Responsible Clinicians (RCs) and Approved Mental Health Professionals (AMHPs).

Attention Score in Context
Attention Score in Context
This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 9. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 13 February 2019.
All research outputs
#5,140,275
of 34,358,242 outputs
Outputs from Journal of Psychiatric & Mental Health Nursing
#267
of 1,536 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#76,198
of 465,454 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Journal of Psychiatric & Mental Health Nursing
#9
of 17 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 34,358,242 research outputs across all sources so far. Compared to these this one has done well and is in the 83rd percentile: it's in the top 25% of all research outputs ever tracked by Altmetric.
So far Altmetric has tracked 1,536 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a little more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 7.2. This one has done well, scoring higher than 81% of its peers.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 465,454 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one has done well, scoring higher than 82% of its contemporaries.
We're also able to compare this research output to 17 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 41st percentile – i.e., 41% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
