Benefits Of Clinician Intervention

The role of prevention compared to treatment has been debated in the healthcare industry for years. In the United States, health providers have been known to prefer treatment over prevention. The idea of healing or treating pain is more desirable than working to simply avoid it according to (Hackett, 2013). My understanding in the role of prevention vs treatment comes down to personal accountability for patients, and changing the thinking of physicians. Treatment gets reimbursed at a higher rate from Medicare and Medicaid and private insurance coverage than prevention; there is a lower compensation for preventative medicine residency programmes and physicians; and there is relatively little funding for active prevention work (Hackett, 2013).

RtI is a great program for students mainly because of its timeliness. “Response to Intervention calls for intervention as soon as a problem is documented” (Friend 50). Prior to RtI, students with learning disabilities would not be identified until they fell far enough behind so they would show a large discrepancy between their achievement level and their potential.

Response to intervention is a researched based intervention process that involves the instruction to be based off data collected in order to increase a students rate of learning. RTI is school wide and includes a multi-level system for instruction to prevent the students from failing. After intervention are put in place students are monitored for progress. Interventions can be Tier 1 (differentiated instruction in the classroom), Tier 2 (may be in the general education classroom, but may be other places), or Tier 3 ( out side of the general education classroom).

The average development of kindergarten aged children, according to John W. Santrock (2015), occurs in every area; the physical level is characterized, biologically and physically by the growth and expansion of the brain. The brain of five years-old children is three quarters of its adult size; the gray matter increases, as well as the front lobe areas giving the child ability to better plan and organize new ideas and actions. A great growth in dendrites connections with each other and "myelination" takes place, which means thousands of cells in the brain of a child are able to efficiently respond to stimuli in a matter of seconds. Likewise, the typical weight of a child between 3 and 6 years of age increases approximately 5-7 pounds, and grows 2-3 inches per year. Other manifestations of physical growth: he now has all 20 primary teeth after three years, has 20/20 vision, and eye-hand coordination at age four; and has a night sleep of 11-13 hours, usually without a nap during the day.

Setting events, antecedents and consequences are all included in development of a hypothesis. It restates the interfering behavior while describing the behavior and determining its function. The setting events of this behavior is he home of Emilia and her family. Emilia is tired form cleaning, cooking and watching the kids all day without adult interaction. The maintaining consequences for this behavior is that once she has an outburst, the children leave her alone and Emilia is able to resume her conversation with her husband. Based on this information and the data collected, Emilia appears to be trying to avoid the interruption from her children. She yells so she can escape their interruption. The behavior is negatively reinforced because after yells the children leave her alone so she is getting what she wants by yelling. The need to escape from the interruption is the function of the behavior. There is enough evidence to develop a hypothesis statement. One could conclude this as a hypothesis statement: In an effort to maintain adult

Intervention plans can impact health care in many ways, but successful plans may provide a benefit to either patients, facilities, or both. Evaluation of an intervention plan is necessary to determine its effectiveness and the value of the intervention’s impact in healthcare. In congestive heart failure (CHF) patients engaged through a telehealth program, the effectiveness of the plan revolves around the intervention components. Identifying outcomes and tools to measure the data obtained through the intervention will assist advanced practice nurses (APN) in identifying which aspects of the intervention provide the most benefit.The purpose of this paper is to describe methods to evaluate the effectiveness, identify short-term, intermediate,

Consider the "Excluded Services" section and the "Payment/Premium" section from your own health insurance contract. Which one is easier to understand? In plain English, discuss what each one means to you as a patient.

Response to Intervention is a program that is often viewed as an alternative to special education services because of it focuses on academic, behavioral, and socioemotional problems (Dougherty, 2014, p 293). Also, it used as a “data-based process to establish, implemented, and evaluate interventions that are designed” to improve the outcomes of human services (Dougherty, 2014, p 294In hopes of helping school wide problems a multitiered program is establish that “involves universal, targeted and intensive levels of intervention, assessment and exactness” (Dougherty, 2014, p 294). Tier one is dedicate to the entire student body and has a list of objectives that must be met. Tier two is dedicated to those students who show a significant risk of

Among these three methods, parent training intervention is a better method in treating ADHD. According to Rajwan, Chacko & Moeller, 2012, Children undergo the parent training intervention not only show a change in opposing, violent, disruptive behavior, but also shown an improvement in attention skills and hyperactivity. Teacher training intervention is not preferred as it shows change in children's behavior, productivity and accuracy for a short period of time. (Barkley, 2002). Furthermore, children that has discontinued from teacher training intervention before shows no effect if they were to be exposed to similar intervention again.

As professional early child care educators, it very important for us to have a clear and precise understanding of the different children in our classrooms. Just by skimming your class you may have some children that have obvious disabilities, and others whose disability is not so noticeable just by looking at the child. These disabilities can come from serval things that occur at conception (genetic) to things long after birth (seizure) that require the child to be seen by a therapist of some sort. The most common therapist I have come in contact with that often visit the children at the center sites are an occupational therapist or a physical therapist. The children may have one or the other, or in some situations, both. I have two children

During this clinical intervention, I caught a mistake by the physician entering in the prescription. The patient was prescribed CIpro for an infection while in the ICU, however the dosage was too high based on the patient’s renal function. Over the last few days the patient’s renal function has continued to decline, as a result it is important to decrease the patient’s dose accordingly to prevent toxicity. I calculated the correct dose for the patients and recommended to the Certified Nurse Practitioner working in the unit. The nurse practitioner agreed and changed the dose of the Cipro to adjust for the decline in renal function. I think that it is important to have pharmacy involved with patient care because pharmacist are trained to monitor

. However, the effectiveness of the treatment intervention must also be considered in the context of preexisting pharmacological therapies. Despite discontinuing use of anxiolytic medication about 6 months into psychological treatment, Mark continued to evidence treatment gains at 9 months, as well as cessation of panic attacks by the end of treatment and at 2-year follow-up. This outcome advocates that the behavioral therapy component played a key role in reducing and preventing Mark’s panic attacks. Findings propose Mark’s asthma was significantly exacerbated by his anxiety and perhaps some of his reported asthma attacks were in fact panic attacks. Regardless, Mark’s physical health, as well as his psychosocial well-being, improved substantially with the use of evidence-based cognitive behavior therapy targeting stress and anxiety. Overall, these results support the implication that physical and mental health interact and that targeting psychological concerns can in turn have an important impact on physical health (Tien, Goodie, Duncan, Szabo, & Larson, 2014).

To analyze the efficiency of an intervention, several techniques can be utilized. In this study, researchers employed formal and informal control in a 2 –year quasi-experimental comparison group design to evaluate the effectiveness of an intervention aiming to prevent the use of alcohol among adolescent in a community. 1368 adolescents aged 13-18 years old were recruited, data were collected via questionnaires at baseline, year 1, and year 2. Researchers concluded that the intervention was not effective in reducing the risk of weekly alcohol intake by adolescents, however combining formal and informal approaches did decrease the rate of drunkenness. Despite the effectiveness of the intervention in reducing the level of drunkenness, the study

Furthermore, as it relates to interpretations, it is helpful if the leader generates multiple interpretations because having only one interpretation of the situation makes the options for action severely limited. The key to success in developing interpretations is to generate a diversity because adaptive work involves orchestrating multiple and passionately held points of view.

Interventions to help an individual who has been in this situation for a few years need to be carefully planned and include the patient. Some families will try to clean out the house when the individual is away but this is usually not effective (Sorell 2012). The individual may feel betrayed resulting in them feeling like they can no longer trust these family members. This approach could even end their relationships. It is also usually not affective when trying to organize the possessions due to the person being likely to re-hoard again to fill up the house. Greater success is achieved when the individual is included and helps develop personal strategies and techniques to cope with the removal of belongings.
