Abstract
- This article explores the multifaceted landscape of mental health inequalities and proposes a comprehensive approach for community nurses to address these disparities. Drawing on legislative measures, healthcare delivery reforms, and community engagement initiatives, the article emphasises the pivotal role of nurses in advocating for equitable access to mental health services and promoting inclusive care practices. Key considerations include the impact of social determinants of health, the need for collaborative multidisciplinary approaches, and the importance of addressing systemic factors perpetuating inequality within the healthcare system.
