Abstract：
:The term 'advocacy' has taken on a meaning beyond its legal origins and is now of importance as a concept in health and social care. Within nursing, the role of advocate has been accepted as an important one, although there are arguments against nurses taking on such a role. The majority of papers on this topic relate to nursing generically rather than being specifically mental health oriented. Nurses need to be made aware of the legal framework within which they practice, in terms of duty of care within their role of nurse advocate, maintaining standards of advocacy acceptable to their professional body, accountability relating to action and omission of actions, guidance on guarding against stepping beyond the boundaries of their professional practice of advocacy, and to have adequate knowledge of the law. This paper offers a critique of nursing advocacy models, raising a number of mental health nursing issues and identifying some areas for further research.
