Explanation: "Careful nursing" was a 19th-century model of nursing care developed in Ireland by Catherine McCauley. This model provided an early contribution to holistic psychiatric mental health nursing. Matilda Coskery, a Sisters of Charity nurse, wrote about the "curative point" in the care of clients. The Sisters of Charity also promoted the idea of a healing environment. Dr. Phil Barker, a British psychiatric nurse, is known internationally for creating the Tidal Model of Care, a philosophical approach to mental health.
