Context:

Hope is an essential feeling in life and is a driving element in the recovery-oriented psychosocial rehabilitation process. It is therefore important to synthesize and integrate existing knowledge about specialized and autonomous nursing interventions that promote hope in the population living this process.

Aim:

To identify specialized and autonomous nursing interventions that promote hope in population in a recovery-oriented psychosocial rehabilitation process.

Method:

Integrative review according to Joanna Briggs Institute criteria. Research was carried out on the platforms Ebscohost, Google Academic and BMC Nursing, between October and December 2021 using the descriptors “Hope” AND “Mental Health and Psychiatric Nursing” AND “(Recovery in mental health” OR “Psychosocial rehabilitation”).

Results:

We included seven studies, referring to different care settings (community, hospital, outpatient). We present a way to identify the need for attention to the “Hope” nursing focus, the various diagnostic assessment instruments and hope-promoting interventions that present positive results.

Conclusion:

The included studies identify the therapeutic relationship as an essential context to convey nursing interventions that promote hope and the fact that nurses are themselves a source of hope. It is essential to identify the attributes of hope, the associated emotions and experiences and be competent to formulate realistic goals.
