A major concern for children who are being treated with medications are that they are either being overprescribed or under prescribed (Rey & Sawyer, 2003). When prescribers have not had sufficient training in use of these medications, especially practicing on youth that are in underserved areas where access to prescribers with expertise in treating youth with psychopharmacology is extremely limited, they are at risk for being under or over prescribed. Medication may be overprescribed when there is insufficient attention paid to other supports and services that may benefit the youth, as well (American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry’s Committee on Community-Based Systems of Care [AACAP], 2012). Another major concern for those who

The expression ‘complex care’ denotes the impact multifarious diagnoses and their subsequent implications have on an individual, and therefore the varying facets of care management required. This may be due to physical, developmental, behavioural or emotional conditions requiring various long-term interventions to ensure survival and positive quality of life (McPherson et al. 1998). A more recent paediatric specific definition, taking into consideration the advances in healthcare leading to both increased survival rates and progress in medical technology, suggests that children with complex care needs may rely on long term assisted

Throughout treatment the caregiver should be involved in the plan of care for the child. It is shown that children do best in a supportive, familial environment. The caregivers and the nurses have a large impact on the child’s ability to get better and reach optimal health (Everhart, Fiese, Smyth, Borschuk, & Anbar, 2014).

When children are diagnosed with chronic health issues, we need to consider the world surrounding the child and move into family centered nursing care as families are a constant in the child’s life. Immediately nurses must consider supportive measures including, but not limited to, teaching, coping mechanisms and emergency treatment plans for all caregivers in the child’s life.

Child Life Specialist are not only focusing on assisting parents help their ill children they also are now having to adapt to helping them transition out of the hospital setting (CLC, 2006, pg. 1760). An example of a service the CLC (2006) has created is doing telephone conference with the parents to give advice on how to prep and prepare their child for any outpatient services they might be receive. There is research that shows that that Child Life Services have a momentous positive outcome on pediatric in/outpatients.

What if the therapy is not be implemented? The children may be mute and try to isolated themselves from other because phobia or traumatized. Besides that, parent also feel trauma when they see their child have been abuse. Both of them will felt less trusting when they meet the new face. If the practitioners only give their physiological need, they might be feeling empty. Therefore, the agencies or parent need to transfer the problematic child to the interagency which have the therapy within. Once they get the therapy, they will finally feel like a normal child. As Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs has described, he stated that people are motivated to achieve certain needs. When one need is fulfilled a person seeks to fulfil the next one, and so on (Maslow, 1943b cited by McLeod,

It has been mentioned in the class that it can take ten years to diagnosis some chronic disorders such as bipolar disorder because there are so many overlapping components between it and other disorders. For these disorders, treatments are always a long and gradual process. To be honest, I often feel stuck in the process of the treatment for schizophrenia or some personality disorders and I self-doubt what are the impacts and benefits of what I did or what I will do during the treatment. This is the middle phase of counseling, where the hard work begins for both the counselor and client. More intensive work in the cognitive, affective and behavioral domains is required. Although the treatment plan is written by both of the client and me, it
