discussion topics for all practicum students

Discussion Topics for All Practicum Students: (CHOOSE ONE)

Find two articles (one from a refereed journal and one from the web) related to Prochaska and Diclemente’s Stages of Change Model. Offer your personal reflections on this model and its usefulness or potential usefulness in your practice.

Working with clients can be like unlocking a combination lock. We may have to turn one way and then another trying to discover what combination of strategies and interventions finally “opens the door” and allows the client to make progress. Building a connection or trust with a client is often the first “intervention”. Describe the “sequence” you use, citing the empirical or other resources that have helped you build a useful strategy? How do you work? Some people start with “What’s up?” and others start more formally, loosening up later. How about you?

Children seldom refer themselves to counseling or other mental health services. If they do not refer themselves for treatment, then who is the client? What are the challenges of working with these non-voluntary participants? What strategies might you use to engage a reluctant child or adolescent? How and to whom do you report progress? If you are sharing information about the child with others, what is the impact on the relationship with the child?

OR

Please share any professional issue that came up at your practicum site this week that has implications for your professional development (this might be a challenge, a success, something new you learned, an ethical issue, etc.)

FOR FULL POINTS, RESPECT THE WEEKLY DEADLINES. Discussion Topic #1: Post your initial message on the topic by Day 3 of this week. Post two thoughtful comments in response to at least two colleagues’ postings by Day 5, selecting, when applicable, postings that have not yet received feedback. Please respond thoughtfully, and challenge others’ logic, assumptions, clarity, etc. as appropriate. Students are encouraged to post additional responses during the week in order to enrich the discussion.

creating a digital poem

Please attach your .html file here; please submit your actual poem as well.

Description: Project1: Variation1 (HTML)
Please use HTML syntax and the new technical elements you have learned in class to implement your poem into a visual expression. This variation is a study of Concrete Poetry, a genre that utilizes the semantic, visual, and phonetic elements of language as raw materials to arrange words in space.

Please keep in mind that the emphasize is the visual expression of the poem.

Purpose:
Creating a digital poem, Aesthetic exploration of meaning, HTML syntax, content creation, repurposing formatting

Format:
Only HTML; Create a file with a .html extension that can be viewed in a browser

Resources:
Look up terms such as “concrete poetry,” “visual poetry,” “language poetry,” “typography poetry,” “erasure,” “visual metaphor,” “semantics vs. syntax” and let your experiments go wild!

Please review Chapter 1-4 of your book.

Please also look up tutorials online and/or find HTML tricks to treat your text.

response paper race the social construct

Response papers should be roughly 2 pages in length (about 1000 words), typed (double spaced), and should explicitly address the given theme, utilizing the readings and discussions from the course. The response papers give you an opportunity to reflect on the readings and the various topics of discussion, and to clarify your own thinking on the issues of race and ethnicity, as well as to provide me with feedback on the effectiveness of some of our course materials at helping to understand and digest these complicated ideas.

Discussion: Ethical and Legal Foundations of PMHNP Care

Discussion: Ethical and Legal Foundations of PMHNP Care
Advanced practice nursing in all specialties is guided by codes of ethics that put the care, rights, duty, health, and safety of the patient first and foremost. PMHNP practice is also guided by ethical codes specifically for psychiatry. These ethical codes are frameworks to guide clinical decision making; they are generally not prescriptive. They also represent the aspirational ideals for the profession. Laws, on the other hand, dictate the requirements that must be followed. In this way, legal codes may be thought to represent the minimum standards of care, and ethics represent the highest goals for care.

For this Discussion, you select a topic that has both legal and ethical implications for PMHNP practice and then perform a literature review on the topic. Your goal will be to identify the most salient legal and ethical facets of the issue for PMHNP practice, and also how these facets differ in the care of adult patients versus children. Keep in mind as you research your issue, that laws differ by state and your clinical practice will be dictated by the laws that govern your state.
To Prepare
• Select one of the following ethical/legal topics:
 Autonomy
 Beneficence
 Justice
 Fidelity
 Veracity
 Involuntary hospitalization and due process of civil commitment
 Informed assent/consent and capacity
 Duty to warn
 Restraints
 HIPPA
 Child and elder abuse reporting
 Tort law
 Negligence/malpractice

• In the Walden library, locate a total of four scholarly, professional, or legal resources related to this topic. One should address ethical considerations related to this topic for adults, one should be on ethical considerations related to this topic for children/adolescents, one should be on legal considerations related to this topic for adults, and one should be on legal considerations related to this topic for children/adolescents.
•
By Day 3 of Week 2

Briefly identify the topic you selected. Then, summarize the articles you selected, explaining the most salient ethical and legal issues related to the topic as they concern psychiatric-mental health practice for children/adolescents and for adults. Explain how this information could apply to your clinical practice, including specific implications for practice within your state. Attach the PDFs of your articles.

Read a selection of your colleagues’ responses.

Discussion: Comprehensive Integrated Psychiatric Assessment

Some children/adolescents may be more difficult to assess than adults, as they can be less psychologically minded. That is, they have less insights into themselves and their motivations than adults (although this is not universally true). The PMHNP must also take into consideration the child’s culture and environmental context. Additionally, with children/adolescents, there are lower rates of neurocognitive disorders superimposed on other clinical conditions, such as depression or anxiety, which create additional diagnostic challenges.

In this Discussion, you review and critique the techniques and methods of a mental health professional as the practitioner completes a comprehensive, integrated psychiatric assessment of an adolescent. You also identify rating scales and treatment options that are specifically appropriate for children/adolescents.

To Prepare

  • Review the Learning Resources and consider the insights they provide on comprehensive, integrated psychiatric assessment. Watch the Mental Status Examination B-6 and Simulation Scenario-Adolescent Risk Assessment videos.
  • Watch the YMH Boston Vignette 5 video and take notes; you will use this video as the basis for your Discussion post.

By Day 3 of Week 1

Based on the YMH Boston Vignette 5 video, post answers to the following questions:

  • What did the practitioner do well? In what areas can the practitioner improve?
  • At this point in the clinical interview, do you have any compelling concerns? If so, what are they?
  • What would be your next question, and why?

Then, address the following. Your answers to these prompts do not have to be tailored to the patient in the YMH Boston video.

  • Explain why a thorough psychiatric assessment of a child/adolescent is important.
  • Describe two different symptom rating scales that would be appropriate to use during the psychiatric assessment of a child/adolescent.
  • Describe two psychiatric treatment options for children and adolescents that may not be used when treating adults.
  • Explain the role parents/guardians play in assessment.

Support your response with at least three peer-reviewed, evidence-based sources and explain why each of your supporting sources is considered scholarly. Attach the PDFs of your sources
