A Comprehensive Psychological Assessment At Bradfield Hospital Mental Health

Over the weekend I was working in Evolv on a client Biopsychosocial Assessment , and I accidentally used Biopsychosocial Assessment RTF. After realizing my error I corrected it and used the Biopsychosocial Assessment RTF V.2, however there are now two assessments in Evolv for the same client. Can you please assist me with deleting the incorrect assessment.

Mental health is a complex phenomenon that consists of a range of diagnoses, treatments and outcomes. Recovery from such experiences has historically meant to completely remove all symptoms of illness, but is now currently thought of as regaining a sense of control over and development of a new meaning and purpose in one’s life, rather than feeling defined by the illness. Each individual understands it in their own personal way, likened to a journey towards self-determination, choice, and empowerment.

The mental health professional I interviewed was Carol McClelland of Freedom House Recovery Center in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. Carol has worked with Freedom House for a year as the directory of outpatient services and is licensed as a LPC, LPCS, LCAS, CCS, and MA. Carol’s job requires her to be responsible for the direct oversight of all clinical operations and clinical integrity for outpatient services at Freedom House. The hours of operation are Monday through Friday from 8am to 5pm, along with a crisis and detox center that is available for contact 24/7. Carol has plenty of experience in the mental health field, such as working as a dual diagnosis/substance abuse outpatient therapist, working with the severely mentally ill, working as a criminal justice outpatient therapist, and also working in a methadone clinic. She chose this career after her experiences in working with mental health, and her extensive education in psychology and counseling. Carol stated that outpatient services was the most interesting out of her job experiences, so when she was offered the job at Freedom House, she accepted.

Psychological research has had a fundamental impact on mental health in the UK, for instance, it has ignited new treatments and made the practices of organisations like the NHS more efficient. However, some may critique the impact research has actually had, for example, the change that has actually occurred because of research. Looking at the impact of research is vital because surely one of the main aims of research is to positively benefit patient’s lives. It means changes in the practices of health organisations are well-informed resulting in effective changes, improving efficiency of health organisations. There has been much research carried out into the stigma of mental health disorders, biological causes e.g. role of dopamine in schizophrenia and new therapies that have emerged- which will all be assessed.

Firstly, the analysis will address the standard of mental health care across each category of prison individually, discussing good examples of mental health support, but also, where there are failures. With this, there is a visual map of how the data was categorised. The analysis will then thematically explore the range of recommendations from every prison category to create an overarching conclusion of standards in reference to general failures across the prison system, the impact this has on current prisoners, and could have for the future of the prison institutional structure of mental health care. The standards that are assessed throughout this analysis are from the Standards for Prison Mental Health Services document (RCPSYCH, 2016),

Another main concern will be if she is being or has been abused either verbally, physically or maybe a combination of both. Sally suffers from low self esteem, depression, anxiety and suicidal ideations, so I should keep in mind the possibility of referrals to medical professionals or even recommending consulting with her family doctor for depression medication.

1) Mental health treatment has seen substantial improvements within the developed world. However, mental health patients continue to experience difficulties receiving mental health care as opposed to physical health care. There are many barriers to receiving mental health services in the developed world even with the advances in technology and treatment seen in medical treatment. When compared with physical health care services, mental health services delivery continue to face issues (Andrade et al., 2014). The barriers to mental health services can be linked to issues of structure and issues related to the patients themselves. Many people do not seek treatment as they may not think they require treatment or believe that they are healthy. Others may seek assistance from a mental health professional and drop out after treatment had already been initiated. This may be due to lack of satisfaction with the quality of service provided. This increases the likelihood of dropping out of treatment (Andrade et al., 2014). Some people do not seek treatment for fears of social stigma and discrimination in the work place. They may become worried about being labeled mentally ill and be denied job opportunities (Andrade et al., 2014). For such reason, many people retrain from disclosing mental illness or treatment. Structural barriers speak to the person’s ability to pay for services and the availability of services. In some developed countries like the United States, a large proportion

It should be noted however that little background information was provided along with the referral request and thus in order to carry out a comprehensive assessment of Ms. Coldwell 's psychological health additional information will need to be gathered pertaining to her current symptoms, pertinent medical history (including psychiatric), family histories (both medical and psychological), work and educational history, and any other relational or social histories which may

Jill reported increased capacity in managing stressful situations and emotions. This was evident in her ability to follow through on coping skills discussed and when using a subjective scale to assess moods she reported improved moods. Jill reported mood changes to be related to interventions in our sessions and being consistent with her anti-depressant prescription. Jill also reported a reduction in her anxiety attacks. Due to Jill addressing underlying issues related to her drinking and feeling heard, she was able to pursue employment counselling and had started a job placement with Leads Employment Services which further increased her confidence. Jill’s self-care improved and that was she presented in clean clothing and had started to wear make-up to appointments. She reported practicing self-care often and had treated herself to a haircut.

With the most common mental health issues over a lifetime being anxiety, substance use disorder and mood disorders. Noting that most people with mental health problems can and do recover with the appropriate treatment and ongoing support. Having a longstanding therapeutic relationship with patients means that I can have inclusive awareness into changes in behaviour and conditions that may suggest a mental health problem. I am continually reminded through the course (Module 2: Is this a problem) that health is more than just physical guaranteeing there is ample time to check in with patients about how they are travelling in terms of their emotional

She feels like her career has come to a standstill, feeling that an everyday task is a burden, not an achievement. There is no appreciation or acknowledgement for her work. Management has not given her the bonus that she deserved and her thoughts and contributions are not valued. Her individual mechanism which was stress reflected psychologically by the demands of the job. This mechanism is critical to job performance and the organizational commitment. Her personality and cultural values also affected the way she behaved at work. I believe her motivation to the job has diminished. The trust, justice, and the ethics of the job have reflected in what she feels in the

Lauren is currently in year 11, however, during year 10 she was involved in a car collision. Whilst, Lauren herself was not greatly injured, she now seems to express multiple changes in behaviour, she appears withdrawn and uncharacteristically moody, according to her family. Additionally, Lauren sees a general practitioner, Rob, as she believes she has an underlying physical illness causing her to feel unwell, however, her clinician can’t find anything to suggest this in her test results. Rob believes her lack of adherence to a consistent exercise regimen and preventative asthma medication, as well as her excessive drinking is responsible for her feelings of malaise. During their sessions, Lauren has appeared distressed, sad and disinterested. Here, we will attempt to further investigate health-risk behaviours Lauren is engaged
