Recovery Approach And Strengths Model

This presentation is going to talk about person- centred care, confidentiality, respecting privacy and dignity and protecting from risks and harm. The common core principles are important to every Health and Social Care setting as they provide a basis for a general understanding of promoting good mental health and recognising signs of poor mental health among everyone receiving care and support. The aim of care home are to meet the identified needs of individuals who live in that home. An older person might need to live in that care home for years. It is important for staff to be aware of responsibilities in delivering care to support the individuals who live at that home. These common principles of health will help develop the workforce that respond confidently to the individuals and supporting the life they are leading.

Case managers working in the theoretical framework of the strengths model work to identify, secure and sustain resources that are both external (i.e., social relations, opportunities, resources) and

Bonney and Stickley (2008) note the theme of power is often raised by service users. If, as predicted by the DOH in 2003, services are to become increasingly individual focused, the system needs to place power with service users. There is increasing amounts of service user literature that places an emphasis on individuals defining their own journey of recovery (Unit 21, pg 66) rather than having it imposed on them by workers. Peter Beresford (Audio 4) notes that currently there are inequalities in mental health services with limited service user power but considerable professional power. Bonney and Stickley mention Martyn (2002, cited in Bonney and Stickley 2008) who proposes professionals should be present by service user invitation only. A less radical aim is that of a gradual transfer of responsibility in power from services to individuals during recovery. It is important such involvement confers genuine power to individuals, rather than being tokenistic (Jacobson 2004, cited in Bonney and Stickley 2008).

In this report I will be investigating how care services meet the needs of individuals by firstly analysing the needs of an individual using care services. Then I will go on to explain the roles of the care planning process in identifying needs, and explain the features of a positive care practise. After explaining that, I will analysis positive care environments and evaluate how they meet needs before finally explaining the role of legislation in promoting a positive care environment.

This assignment will define and analyse the need for a chosen service improvement within the pathway of mental health, as well as evaluating the suggested service. Demonstrating how this service can inform and benefit integrated practice, discussing the ways in which the agency’s statutory obligations and responsibilities impact on both individual and group decision making. The chosen service improvement for this assignment is the introduction of a mental health nurse into primary care services, for example, a GP Surgery. Focusing on service users with mental health issues in the community and therefore in the care of the local Primary Care Trust (PCT).

The aim of the essay is to demonstrate the process of a patient assessment and care plan formulation in accordance with the assignment instructions. It is based on a case study, which illustrates a patient who has a diagnosis of paranoid schizophrenia, the patient was admitted to a medium secure hospital unit, please see appendix for more details of the case study. The pseudonym Peter will be used to address the patient to maintain confidentiality as required by the Nursing and Midwifery Council(NMC,2008).Firstly the essay will explore the philosophies of CPA; Care Programme Approach and then demonstrate the assessment of a patient with an assessment tool and including the formulation of a care plan.A KGV assessment tool was utilized(Lancashire,1998).In addition,the essay will examine and analyse the strengths and limitations of principles and philosophies which underpin existing service models for instance biopsychosocial model which is applied in mental health care delivery.Subsuently the essay will demonstrate an in-depth analysis of holistic assessment principles within mental health care.Futhermore the essay will analyse collaborative working in relation to planning and

Within this essay, I will reflect and critically analyse an OSCE which has increased my awareness, or challenged my understanding, in assessing the holistic needs of a service user (John), referred by his GP, whilst incorporating a care plan using the Care Programme Approach (CPA). By utilising this programme and other sources of current literature, I hope to demonstrate my knowledge and understanding in relation to this skill as well as identifying areas with scope for learning.

To enable me to use this situation for my reflection the patient will be referred to as "Kate". This is in order that her real name is protected and that confidentially maintained in line with the NMC (2002) Code of Professional Conduct.

Individuals’ mental status or physical/ behavioral recovery or medical treatment cannot persist in a healthy phase if their social roles in relationships are unaccounted or if their family is homeless, or they are living in a toxic social environment. I believe, even with the integration, of healthcare professional, the primary focus of social work should not only encompass psychological forces, the environment, or the social structure but on the boundary or the relationship between the person and the social

The recovery model is very import to the field of marriage and family therapy in many different ways. Recovery allows for the client to change, and see unlimited possibility. This model is seen through the lens of values, seeking to help the client to live a rich and meaningful life. Recovery is strength based, and allows for the client to build from their personal skills set, and doesn’t blame a single person for the distress of the family. This allows for the client to gain a sense of self and self-worth, see their own values, and be able to create support within the family as well as their community.

The author will also discuss the principles of the Mental Capacity Act (2005) and the Mental Health Act (1983) and how it protect an adult who is vulnerable and lacks capacity. Likewise, the author will discuss ranges of nursing interventions, person-centred care, and ethical dilemmas.

Mr. Harvey Johnson is a 62 year old African American male. He has been married for 36 years, have four adult daughters, and four grandsons. Mr. Johnson has been diagnosed with Major Depressive Disorder and is 80% service connected.

Throughout my Clinical rotation this week in the community, I have had the honour of getting to know at least an individual each day who is trying to bounce back to life and move forward with their mental health condition and their stories of challenges, and I can confidently say that not one story is the same. Throughout the week I have grown to understand that the phenomena of “recovery’” requires self- awareness, drive and acceptance to operate outside the box in improving one’s quality of care through a meaningful life.

Psychosocial rehabilitation [PSR] is a key component in aiding to reintegrate an individual with a mental health disability back into society. This evidence based approach goes beyond looking at the individual’s mental limitations and symptoms, and rather put the focus on ones strengths that will contribute a better quality of life. By going beyond the diagnostic label, and encouraging recovery as an option, the healthcare team is equipping the individual with the needed tools to function as a productive member of society. With this, the purpose of this paper is to explore the roles of the individual, family, as well as community, with concepts taken from the psychosocial rehabilitation model when it comes to creating a treatment plan for those diagnosed as having a mental or emotion illness. This writer will then create an individualized care-plan based on evidence found.

Psychosocial rehabilitation has its theoretical roots in evolving a failed effort, by the mental health system, to help mentally ill patients in coping with the psychosocial devastation brought on by severe mental illness and behavioural problems (Correctional Services Canada, 2013). The traditional methods of treatment viewed recovery as a process of curing an illness, usually with medication, but recovery does not subsequently occur once their illness is “treated” (CSC, 2013). This traditional method was ineffective because their recovery was halted by limited support and skills and ‘abnormal’ behaviours learned in institutions (CSC, 2013). These deficits resulted in chronic impairments and maladaptive social functioning (CSC, 2013). These individuals were unable to fulfill normal social roles and successfully live independently in the community (CSC, 2013). The PSR approach to recovery incorporates more than just eliminating the signs and symptoms of the illness, is based on understanding the patients voice and experiences and encouraging participation and self-determination in treatment (CSC, 2013). This approach recognises the care values such as hope, empowerment, and determination are essential to recovery (CSC, 2013). The importance of skill development and community support are also highlighted (CSC, 2013).
