Psychiatric

As a psychiatric nurse, we can help rugby boys by providing education on the health effects of inhalants, introducing community programs, and using non-pharmacological treatments like counseling and therapy. Treatment should address both medical and mental health issues, and involve the family and recreational activities.

In your capacity of nursing student enrolled in Psychiatric Nursing what can you do to help these

brothers and sisters who succumbed to substances ?

Rugby Boys is a general term for street children's gangs found in the Philippines. They are by far the
most well-known poverty-stricken people in the slums of the Philippines. And within minutes of
prolonged inhalation, called Sudden Sniffing Death Syndrome, it can cause heart failure and death for
others. Just from a single sniffing session, a once-healthy individual will die. As a psychiatric nurse, we
can help them by providing information and resources to patient about what rugby does to your body.
Such effects may be a slight discomfort to the user after inhalation, but permanent inhalation damage is
irreversible. Nausea, blurred vision, memory lapses, and loss of muscle control area also caused by
inhalants. Nurses could also introduce community educational services; serve on treatment and
rehabilitation programs teams. Because there may be fatal damage to organs such as the liver, kidneys,
brain and heart. We could also help them by non-pharmacological treatment, such as behavioral
therapy and counselling. There are many options that have been successful in treating patient who’s
addicted to rugby. Such as assessment and treatment for co-occurring mental health issues such as
anxiety and depression. Treatment should include, as required, both medical and mental health
services. As an alternative to pharmacotherapy and psychoeducation services to reduce residual
symptoms, supportive psychosocial interventions could also use. We could also implement motivational
approaches, by helping them to build a therapeutic partnership to strengthen the therapeutic bond,
develop insight and coping strategies to overcome ambivalence and improve actions related to health.
Family support which is the most important treatment you could provide that may enhance individual
and group treatment; supportive group therapy could reveal positive outcomes. It can be also
particularly helpful to do recreational activities that involve physical action and multisensory stimuli.
Lastly, the best treatment for rugby addiction is the talk therapy; it may take the form of cognitive
behavioral therapy, which allows you to think about circumstances differently (such as knowing why you
are turning to inhalants or other medicines), so that your thoughts about certain situations and habits
will improve.
