This paper explores themes relevant to mental health nursing using the example of one educational module of a nursing degree. The authors argue that the educational preparation of mental health nursing students in higher education must address certain contested philosophical, conceptual, social and ethical dimensions of contemporary mental health care practice. These themes are discussed within the context of a third-year mental health nursing module within a Scottish nursing degree programme. By interlinking epistemology and ontology, the notion of student as 'critical practitioner', involving the encouragement of 'critical thinking', is developed. This is shown via engagement with parallel perspectives of the sciences and the humanities in mental health. Narratives of student nurse engagement with selected literary texts demonstrate the extent to which issues of knowledge, self-awareness and personal development are central to a student's professional journey as they progress through an academic course. The paper concludes by suggesting that these 'critical perspectives' have important wider implications for curriculum design in nursing education. Insights from critical theory can equip nurse educators to challenge consumerist tendencies within contemporary higher education by encouraging them to remain knowledgeable, critical and ethically sensitive towards the needs of their students.

Building on historical precedents, both ancient and contemporary, the concept of Person Centered Medicine as a theoretical proposal and a practical approach has been explored since the earliest Geneva Conferences on Person Centered Medicine. At the same time, it can be said from personal and group reflection and insights that Person Centered Medicine is also an experience, an attitude, and a process.Experience is a crucial aspect of everybody’s life. Experience and trajectory is also a fundamental domain of any institution’s identity and life. This denotes the value of appraising, recognizing, and delineating institutional journeys such as that underlying the development of Person Centered Medicine.The meaning of such institutional journey may be illuminated by the consideration of Odysseus’ journey to Ithaca in Homer’s Iliad. The delineation of the itinerary and vicissitudes in the process of constructing Person Centered Medicine might contribute to the clarification and understanding of what is Person Centered Medicine as much as a philosophical analysis of its principles and arguments.

Person Centered Medicine is fundamentally aimed at promoting the health and well-being of the totality of the person. Here the person is the key concept as the center and goal of health care. An important implication is that the focus of contemporary medicine should be shifted from disease to patient to person. In the clinical arena, Iona Heath has spoken critically of “promotion of disease and distortion of medicine” and concerning public health, WHO’s definition of health as “a state of complete physical, emotional and social wellbeing and not merely the absence of disease” is compelling
