Question on Discussion Post

/in /by

 

An individual is referred to your office by his parole officer.  This 19-year-old male, named Sam, was recently arrested for a “psychotic break” that caused him to throw a chair through the neighborhood drug store window.   Sam’s parents arrive and Sam agrees to have his parents present during the interview.

His parents state Sam recently withdrew from college after experiencing a “resounding moment” in which he changed his major from engineering to philosophy and increasingly had reduced his sleep, spending long hours engaging individuals in the commons in conversations about the nature of reality and how he is gaining an appreciation “for all life”. He had been convinced about the importance of his ideas, stating frequently that he was more learned and advanced than all his professors. He told many that “I should be the one teaching these courses, after all, I understand it much better than my professors”. Sam has also increased the number of high-risk behaviors – drinking and engaging in sexual relations in a way that was unlike his previous history.  He also has spent a considerable sum of money on “projects to help the world” – unfortunately, he has never completed a project.

Sam’s parents also state that Sam was diagnosed previously by his PCP with MDD and GAD.  “These new behaviors are just that – new – since he went to college”.

Further discussions with Sam and his parents reveal that he has never experienced hallucinations and you believe that he currently is not experiencing any delusions.  Sam states “I am what I am”.

  1. What diagnosis do you believe may apply to this individual?
  2. What classifications of medications can be used to treat this disorder?  Which medication do you recommend and why?

This discussion forum will focus on the first step in program planning: assembling the change team.

1,Review the Process of Program Planning document posted in the Week 1 module. The objective of step 1 in the program planning process is to assemble a team of leaders, staff members and possibly healthcare consumers with the authority, expertise, credibility and motivation necessary to drive a successful change program.

2.Consider your workplace, or the workplace where you will complete your capstone project. Answer the following questions in your initial post:

a. Provide a brief description of the workplace, at the level where change will be instituted (ie. unit versus hospital)

b. Which individuals would you want on a team to investigate the need for change? It is not necessary to name individuals, but rather to list their job titles. What is your rationale for selecting these individuals? Do they fulfill any of the following team roles?

–Executive Sponsor –a senior leader with enough clout to implement new approaches

–Clinical or Technical Support-has expert knowledge of the relevant clinical subject matter or of the technology used

–Champion– Staff who are supportive of a change, and willing to mentor others to make change happen

–Front-line leader– Understands the impacts of making changes on processes used in the delivery of nursing and healthcare

c. Discuss the use of interdisciplinary change teams. Are they more or less impactful than those of one discipline? Please provide a rationale explaining your answer.

In addition to your original post, be sure to provide a meaningful response to at least two of your peer’s posts. The discussion closure for each week’s discussion topic is Sunday night at 11:59pm Mountain Time. (It is the expectation of this course that each student respond to any questions asked of them in the discussion forum by Sunday at 11:59pm Mountain Time.). cite all resources per APA
