Abstract

Within the framework of its establishment project, a public mental health establishment located in Essonne wished to develop paramedical research. The theme of the stigmatization of nurses working in psychiatry was chosen. Using a qualitative methodology, interviews were conducted with two groups of professionals and one group of student nurses, the aim being to find out whether they felt stigmatized by their peers and/or by society in general. The results obtained are interesting.

Keywords: désengagement professionnel; engagement professionnel; identité professionnelle; infirmier; nurse; professional commitment; professional disengagement; professional identity; psychiatrie; psychiatry; stigma; stigmatisation.
