ComprehensivePsychiatricEvaluationNote and PatientCasePresentation
Psychiatric notes are a way to reflect on your practicum experiences and connect them to the didactic learning you gain from your NRNP courses. Comprehensive psychiatric evaluation notes, such as the ones required in this practicum course, are often used in clinical settings to document patient care.
For this Assignment, you will document information about a patient that you examined in a group setting during the last 4 weeks, using the Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation Note Template provided. You will then use this note to develop and record a case presentation for this patient.
To Prepare
Review this week’s Learning Resources and consider the insights they provide about clinical practice guidelines.
Select a group patient for whom you conducted psychotherapy for a mood disorder during the last 4 weeks. Create a Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation Note on this patient using the template provided in the Learning Resources. There is also a completed template provided as an exemplar and guide. All psychiatric evaluation notes must be signed, and each page must be initialed by your Preceptor. When you submit your note, you should include the complete comprehensive psychiatric evaluation note as a Word document and pdf/images of each page that is initialed and signed by your Preceptor. You must submit your note using SafeAssign.
CASE STUDY: SY is a 16 years old Asian American female, seen along with her parents via telehealth for psychotherapy session. Patient presenting with history of depression, anxiety, and history of self harm. SY reports having a hard time since age 12 with SI first reported at age 14. Patient mother reports declining grades in school. SY reports depressive symptoms of sadness, hopelessness, feeling of excessive guilt, and thought of death. Patient also reports anxiety symptoms of irritability, uncontrollably worry. Patient also reports symptoms consistent with a trauma and stressor-related disorder due to nightmares, flashbacks, and intrusive thought related to past physical abuse by father. Therapist stated to SY parents that recent anger outbursts seem best explained by mood and traumatic stress rather than ODD since no prior history of oppositional behavior was reported. SY would benefit from outpatient treatment to reduce and manage her symptoms. A psychiatric evaluation is also recommended. SY and family will be followed up weekly for 8 weeks
Requirements: 4 pages
Please, follow the posted instructions carefully. This assignment will come with an introduction and conclusion page, with 5 most recent APA 7 edition references from 2017.
Please, pay attention to these, to be included in the paper:
Subjective: What details did the patient provide regarding their chief complaint and symptomology to derive your differential diagnosis? What was the duration and severity of their symptoms? How are their symptoms impacting their functioning in life?
Objective: What observations did you make during the psychiatric assessment?
Assessment: Discuss the patient’s mental status examination results. What were your differential diagnoses? Provide a minimum of three possible diagnoses in order of highest to lowest priority and explain why you chose them. What was your primary diagnosis and why? Describe how your primary diagnosis aligns with DSM-5 diagnostic criteria and is supported by the patient’s symptoms.
Plan: What was your plan for psychotherapy (including one health promotion activity and one patient education strategy)? What was your plan for treatment and management, including alternative therapies? Include nonpharmacologic treatments, alternative therapies, and follow-up parameters, as well as a rationale for this treatment and management plan.
Reflection notes: What would you do differently with this patient if you could conduct the session again?
Hi, I previously submitted the attached document as my answer to the question below. The topic I chose is “Gender identity,” but when I submitted my answer, it showed a high plagiarism percentage; therefore, I need help with this assignment. I believe it will be better if we keep the same topic. Let me know if you have any questions about the assignment.
Regards.
Assignment:
Identify a sociologically relevant topic or problem of your choosing. For your final project, you must link that topic/problem to the wide range of tools of sociological thought you have learned this semester in a presentation (e.g., PowerPoint) or written review. Your project must substantially fulfill the following requirements:
Give a background of the topic or problem you have chosen and discuss why it would benefit from being understood through a sociological lens. What assumptions do people make about it that sociology can inform (or change)? What does sociology bring to the table that differs from people’s everyday social and cultural assumptions?
Discuss how two sociological theories can be applied. In doing so, you should make clear that you understand how the core perspectives of the theory can connect to and offer insight into the real-world example you have chosen. In other words, how would this theory interpret your topic?
It may be easiest to choose from the major theories (Structural-Functionalism, Symbolic Interactionism, and Conflict Theory*), but recall that there are some other theories presented in your readings.
Discuss how two sociological concepts can be applied. In doing so, you should show how these concepts can be seen at work inside the topic/problem you’ve identified. Use them to zero in on aspects of your example and interpret them. You may choose from the following list of concepts:
(*Important: note that if you choose Conflict Theory as one of your theories, you may not choose social inequality as one of your concepts.)
If you do a presentation, remember that you will not actually have the opportunity to present it to your instructor in person. This means that you cannot explain what’s on your slides. Therefore, you should not use them as rough, illustrative guides. While they do not have to read like a paper, they must contain all the content required for the project. A few brief sentences will not adequately meet each requirement; you will be evaluated on how thoroughly and how well you meet these requirements. Accordingly, use as many slides as it takes to fully present your work and your thought. If necessary, err on the side of “too much”!
If you choose to do a written paper instead of a presentation, it must be 5 pages in length (Times New Roman, 12-pt font, double spaced, 1″ margins).
Whichever option you choose, please provide a list of references at the end and be sure to disclose in the body of your presentation or paper where you have used words, figures, ideas, or any other material from your sources. You are not required to use any references other than your textbook, but you are required to identify this and any other source that you use.
For Section 2 of the Final Project you will create a guide for these areas that nonprofit boards and executive directors can use to maximize their chances for success.
1.Identify at least three areas of knowledge, skills, and experience that you might require for individual members of the board and explain why these areas may be important for the organization and the board’s operations.
2. Include a specific plan for the recruitment, orientation, ongoing training, and retention of board members.
3. Explain the relationship of the board and the executive director and outline a process that the board should use for the recruitment, selection, oversight, and succession planning for the executive director.
The draft should be 4–5 pages, contain a minimum of 5–6 specific, evidence-based best practices, and utilize proper APA formatting.
