Mental Status Exam Assignment

PNSG 1524 Mental Health

Use the interactive MSE form and interview another person. This could be a family member, roommate, classmate, etc. Keep in mind that many of the items on the form deal with observation of your “patient”; it is not just about asking questions. Look at the person you are interviewing and really think about what you are seeing. Also use your other senses, such as sound, smell, etc. All those things are important when assessing an individual’s mental status. Write 1-2 paragraphs describing how the interview went. Please answer each of the following questions:

1. What observations did you make regarding your “patient”; how did they appear and react to your questions?

1. Were there any areas you felt uncomfortable asking about?

1. Could you think of different ways to make the person you interviewed feel more comfortable?

1. What type of therapeutic communication techniques did you use?

1. How might you incorporate what you learned here when caring for patients in the future?

This form is a helpful tool that you can use when you assess any patient, it is not only for use in a mental health setting (although you can use it when you go for your mental health observation). Remember, people with mental health diagnoses are found in every clinical (and non-clinical) setting you can think of. It is just as important to assess a patient’s mental status as it is to assess their physical status.

This is for practice only; I do not need (or want) to see the results of the exam! Also, you can skip some of the areas of the MSE for this assignment that might seem too personal, such as the demographic section, but you would not want to skip any area if you were assessing a “real” patient.

TOPIC : NURSING SHORTAGE

Decision-Making Process 

Instructions

In this assignment, you will be writing a 6-pages identifying, comparing and contrasting at least 3 DIFFERENT DECISION MAKING APPROACHES SOF CARE from a multidisciplinary perspective using a pertinent and significant topic ( NURSING SHORTAGE).

You are required to use APA 7th edition format and the page count does not include title page or reference page. Reflect on your own decision-making practices and the implications this will have regarding differing approaches taken of nursing leaders and staff nurses/clinical practitioners in decision making within to issues in practice. To complete this assignment, do the following:

1. Select and describe an issue in nursing that impacts nurses at all levels from bedside to advanced practice. Make sure to provide an adequate background and its significance to all levels of nursing using a strong review of the literature. Additionally, this should include a thorough literature review that provides a good understanding of what the cause of this problem is; what is suggested to address this problem. Essentially, this review must support your choices of the decision-making models and this needs to include how all levels of nursing practice (the bedside nurse to the APN are impacted by the problem).
2. Identify how you would expect a nurse leader/manager, a bedside/staff nurse and an Advanced practice nurse (CNO or NP) to address your selected issue using at least 3different decision-making approaches which are clearly supported by the literature review. This must first include aa detailed analysis/overview of the selected decision making models and how they are used in practice. Then a detailed analysis of how these decision-making approaches/models would address the problem/along with a detailed analysis of how each of the three selected models would be applied to address the selected issue/problem making sure to incorporate this at all levels of practice. One of the decision-making models may be more applicable to the bedside nurse; whereas the other more applicable to the APN; however, all levels of nursing practice need to be addressed with at least one of the chosen 3 decision-making models. However, this does not mean that each decision-making model will apply to all levels of practice only that in this discussion needs to include how each level of nursing practice would utilize the decision-making model to address the problem. For instance,one decision making model may apply to the bedside nurse; the second decision making model may be more applicable at the level of APN (CNO, NP, etc) and the other decision-making model may be best applied to the nurse manager. This section should be detailed; meaning specific, well thought out, realistic solutions of how the nurse (at the level identified; this may include more than one level for the same decision-making model or not) would address the problem using the decision-making model is provided and well supported by the literature. of the benefits and limitations of various decision-making approaches that are applied appropriately to the level of nursing practice to address the selected issue/problem. This is informed from course readings,literature, clinical scenarios and other evidence-based and scholarly sources.
3. Prioritize the best decision-making approach/model to address the selected problem that is grounded in best practice. This should provide a well-supported rationale for this choice that includes a good comparison and contrasting of the 3 chosen decision-making models that clearly illustrates why the choice was made, that is consistent with the decision making model and how it would address the chosen topic or problem.
4. Identify a possible funding source that would addresses your approach to solving the problem. For instance, if the best approach to solving the nurse-to-patient ratio problem is through the use of SDM and shared governance, perhaps you may seek a local funding source to provide you with funding to implement a small EBP or research project that would be funded by a local nursing organization such as Sigma Theta Tau or perhaps if it was geared more towards assessing the value of this model towards NP in practice than seeking a local organization that supports funding for projects being implemented by practicing NP? If seeking money for research this would need to be overseen by a nurse with a DNP or a PhD or someone with the credentials to do so that are part of their scope of practice. Consider looking at federal, state,or local organizations. For example: There are many grants available through the CDC,HRSA, etc. Again, this need to be specifically applied with sufficient details
5. Use at least 10 references other than your main text.Uses APA 7th edition formatting. At least 5 of these need to be within the past five years.

PLEASE REFER TO THE TOPIC NURSING SHORTAGE, FOCUS ON THAT TOPIC, NO OTHER TOPIC. 

    Scenario 1
    You are working in risk management and need to track medication administration errors and adverse events for patients over a 6-month period. You are receiving information from the inpatient areas, outpatient clinics, and home health. 

Using the scenario, create a diagram of WK 3 proposed database using Microsoft Word.

• Include the additions made in Week 4.
• Complete the diagram first, but place it as the final page or pages of your submission. The diagram is separate from the required page count.

In the narrative portion of the assignment: 2 to 3 pages. Provide current references to support narrative.

• Explain how your diagram articulates your planned design.
• Explain the principles behind selecting key fields and defining relationships. Be specific and support your response with evidence.
• Write a sample PICOT question (i.e., a query) you might ask based on the information in the database created during Weeks 3 and 4 to demonstrate your understanding of the connection between data and research.
• List the tables in the database that you would need to include when answering your question.
