Intervention And Response: Case Study

This paper focuses on the Response to Intervention. As educators we are hearing RTI more frequently in the school districts than ever before. Many educators and state officials agree that all teachers should know and get to know the benefits and importance of RTI. The most crucial aspect to know is the RTI takes place into the regular childhood classroom; this is not something that just special education teachers need to know. This paper explains the purpose and a brief history of RTI. The paper offers ways that it is beneficial for school districts to implement this research based program. However, as in many systems there are always challenges, the paper briefly discusses some of the challenges that educators

In this case study, Miguel clearly shows difficulties in reading. The difficulties stated include: recognizing alphabet letters (alphabetic awareness), matching sounds to letters (letter-sound correspondence), telling sounds apart (sounding out), starting/ending sounds (sounding out), and remembering words quickly (sight word reading) (Meet Miguel, n.d.). In order to address these difficulties, the authors would approach this problem in a two pronged manner: 1) immediate bridge methods for learning, and 2) RTI approach.

In the article, “Response to Intervention in Reading for English Language Learners”, the authors Sharon Vaughn and Alba Ortiz explain, how much native language and/or ESL instruction students receive depends on the program model. Students in English as a second language programs do not receive native language instruction; they are typically educated within general education classrooms and have a support program for English as a Second Language. In planning Response to Intervention approaches, it is significant to recognize the program in which English language learners are registered, how their native language and English proficiency is measured and observed, and the core literacy program they have for development of

Response to Intervention (RTI) is an in school service program designed to guarantee that all students are getting a high quality education. Before students are referred for special education services, it is essential that they receive effective teaching designed to meet their own learning requirements. All students in public schools are required to be included in the RTI program.

The most recent data collected by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) shows that 1 in 68 children are diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) (CDC, 2014). Children diagnosed with ASD often have difficulty with functional performance in several key areas including; social participation, communication, school based activities, motor performance and play. These impairments in functional performance are not exclusive to the child alone as the caregiver often assumes a great deal of burden in managing the symptoms of a child with ASD. Furthermore, these difficulties along with the rising diagnosis rate has pushed ASD to the forefront of clinical research and has raised issues regarding which Ayres

The term integrated interventions refers to specific types of treatment strategies, or specific therapeutic techniques that address interventions of two disorders which is usually combined into one interaction, or single session, and sometimes into multiple sessions. First it must start off with an integrated screening by a substance abuse counselor, and if a co-occurring disorder is identified by a mental health counselor. This would offer the client the proper assessment and process for the best level of care needed. There is also the dual recovery, mutual aid self-help groups and meetings. This is usually an independent, twelve step, and self-help type organization. Helping those with a combined alcohol dependence and an emotional or psychiatric

I will discuss these factors with the child’s parents in order to design an intervention program with the most current, appropriate, and effective evidence-based interventions. Additionally, I plan to include caregiver education on various treatment options (behavior plans and other treatments), community support system and other resources. That will lead to modifying the child’s maladaptive behaviors through the use of positive reinforcements such as praise, and tangible rewards and decrease unwanted behavior through time out, and removal of privileges to improve occupation-based outcome

When intervening with this population, the clinician is working collectively with the client and their environment to provide a multidimensional intervention to enhance their quality of life, mobilize strengths, establish relationships, and encouragement them to engage. The clinician may adopt a variety of roles throughout the process, depending on the diverse needs of the late adults. For example, if the client is old-old cohort, their families may need assistance navigating through the medical system, information about end of life decisions, palliative care, advanced directives, living wills, durable power of attorney, pain management. The individual

The last intervention, we will use is meditation. There are many different forms of meditation such as yoga, tai-chi, walking and Autogenic training. Their cognitive development will also improve with the work of meditation. Adolescents go through a lot of stress and stress can hurt their health outcomes. With meditation as something we do in our sessions and possibly at home their stress could be reduced. The staff will communicate with the parents about stress at home and how that can have a negative impact on their child who is trying to get better. The young adult’s life and environment need to have very little stress so they may improve their health. With an intervention like meditation, they will be able to relax and calm down if anything

. 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).

The effectiveness in the intervention with Renee can best be evaluated through communication with involved parties, observation, and use of assessment tools. Since the intervention has many moving pieces, it is critical for the case manager to stay connected with the family and other services providers for regular updates and check-ins. Additionally, the use of assessment tools and home visits to observe the client can be effective. For instance, if the families counselor recommend new ways to address ineffective communication in the family, the case manager during a home visit could observe their interactions, and if necessary offer relevant feedback or support through role playing exercises.

In a world filled with the stresses of everyday life that include deadlines and demands of work, personal goals and demands in family life and now the additional stress of returning to college as an adult, it's understandable how "mindless eating" can become a habit. Combine these factors with technological advances that encourage sedentary lifestyles, and it should come as no surprise that obesity has reached epidemic proportions. Societal influences, such as those listed by Wansink, including “packages and plates, labels, colors, and smells (Wansink 2006, p. 1)" (Bahl, Ross, and Kwong, 2013) definitely are contributing factors and should be acknowledged when considering interventions. However, in my opinion, the most effective intervention

CC met with the member after her doctor appointment and health assessment. The member has been witout her medication for about three weeks. CC transported the member to her pharmacy in Hamtramck and waited until her prescription were filled. CC talked to the member the important about making sure she see the doctor before she run out of her medication. The member states she is does not have any transportation to get to the clinic every month. CC explain to the member that TWC does offer bus services. The member states that she has a problems being around a lot of people and expectly people she does not know. CC told the member that she will discuss with her therapist and we will come up with a solution to help her get back and forth

An example of a health intervention during pregnancy that would provide long-term benefits for the mother and her child is one that provides a mother education, free- screening, and counseling for 3 hypothesis mentioned that the theories regarding the risks of mother and child obesity could be thcat of: (1) genetical (2) children can grow up in environment of poor habits (3) What happens in the pregnancy & environment of fetus. Education would include counseling which would facilitate diet, exercise, nutrition knowledge for expecting mothers to prevent at a primary level initially but then would also influence the mothers diet and exercise which would in turn influence the child through environment. Aiming this program towards pregnant mothers
