For example, if a patient does not speak the same language as me it would be difficult for the patient and I to convey meaning to one another and therefore during the interview I may not get the proper information I need to properly care for the patient.

Some of the important details are what is there primary language, do they have difficulty hearing, developmental competence, cultural background. All these factors play a key role in

What disorder(s) do you think Sonya is likely experiencing? Provide support for the diagnosis/diagnoses you make, walking me through your reasons. Specifically, you might outline what is needed to meet diagnostic criteria and explain how the patient fits these criteria. (10pts)

A recent high school graduate, Susanna Kaysen began to enter her next chapter of life when her symptoms of abnormal behavior started to take a great effect on her as she struggled to function in her everyday

For over a century there has been observations and research that schizophrenia is a syndrome with a set of core symptoms. In defining what is and what is not schizophrenia it is important in the diagnostic process but also essential to determining the treatment plan and projected outcomes. Diagnosing schizophrenia is about identifying the core symptoms of the illness, while at the same time eliminating numerous other psychiatric or medical conditions that can be present in similar ways. Therefore, the proper recognition of symptoms and their relation to each other is of utmost importance. The most common signals of schizophrenia can be divided into three major categories (terms used by mental health

A comprehensive diagnostic evaluation is initially necessary to identify presenting behaviors to obtain a diagnosis (Dziegielewski, 2015).

Based on the information provided by the patient’s sister, and aligning the symptoms, the behavior, and the patient’s history to the diagnostic criteria of the DSM-5, the patient meets all diagnostic criteria for schizophreniform disorder. According to criterion A, the patient should experience the same characteristic symptoms of schizophrenia. In other words, the individual should experience two or more symptoms of delusions, hallucinations, or disorganized speech. In addition to possible events of disorganized behavior, and negative

Simon is suffering from a mental illness called 295.90 (F20.9) schizophrenia, continuous. Research states that” Schizophrenia occurs in people from all cultures and from all walks of life” (Butcher et al., 2013, p.444). Simon reported experiencing symptoms from criteria A: delusions (unorganized thinking), catatonic behavior (psychotic behavior), negative symptoms (negative emotions associated with his illness), hallucinations (he thinking becomes strange), and disorganized speech (American Psychiatric Association, 2013, p. 99). He also met criteria B: “For a significant portion of the time since the onset of the disturbance, level of functioning in one or more major areas, such as work, interpersonal relationship, or self-care, is markedly below the level achieved prior to the onset (or when the onset is in childhood or adolescence, there is a failure to achieve

According to the Diagnostical Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-V), Criteria A for Schizophrenia is met when “two or more of the following are present for 1 month time (or less when successfully treated): delusions, hallucinations, disorganized speech, grossly disorganized behavior, negative symptoms,” (APA, 2013, p. 99). Simon refers to his episodes as psychotic, which would indicate the presence of multiple symptoms listed above, as well as meet Criteria B for disturbances in levels of functioning (APA, 2013; Mason, 2002). Simon meets Criteria C, as his symptoms have been ongoing since the age of 17. Criteria D is met as it is established that any difficulties with mood or depressive symptomology is resulting from Schizophrenic symptoms. There is no indication of substance use or autism, meeting Criteria E and F for a diagnosis of Schizophrenia (APA, 2013; Mason, 2002).

Situational Interview Questions: These inquiries will gauge how a man would respond to genuine circumstances and give their conclusions. This sort of addressing is endeavoring to make the hopeful feel similar feelings that the meeting is attempting to introduce.

Schizophrenia is globally the most common psychotic disorder (Holder & Wayhs, 2014, p.1). There is no discreet definition of schizophrenia as a disease with a single underlying cause rather it is a set of symptoms diagnosed by clinical observations and the experiences of the patient (Gaebel, 2011). One has to exhibit a number of symptoms for not less than a month to get a Schizophrenia diagnosis. Angelo’s behavior, appearance and conversation suggest that he suffers from the disorder. It is important to manage schizophrenia suffers in a sensitive and appropriate manner to reduce the risk of an episode and improve outcomes for the patient.

Symptoms must not be underwritten to a general medical condition or activated by the use of mind-altering substances; the mental health professional working with Ms. A has previously ruled these out (Belmaker & Galila, 2008). Ms. A’s symptoms included depressed mood most of the day, evidently reduced interest or desire in all, or almost all, actions, considerable weight loss without fasting, sleeplessness, feelings of restiveness, fatigue or loss of energy, and/or reduced competence to think or

The purpose of the report is to establish the importance of the three skills interpersonal communication skills; listening, feedback, and questioning. Benefits of each of these interpersonal skills within the field of engineering were also stated. This report collected information from a range of peer reviewed sources and credible sources related to the field of engineering. This report has outlined a variety of benefits and explanations regarding the three interpersonal communication skills of listening, feedback and questioning and how the relate to the field of engineering. Both the limitations and recommendations for incorporating the skills into the field engineering were discussed. when the depth of the subject was explored it was found that there was a strong like between these three interpersonal skills, listening involves a great depth of understanding and clarifying what is said not just listening to what some has to say. This has a link to questioning as when adequate questions were asked it was found that listening, attentiveness and depth of understanding increased, this intern relates to feedback as it is a type of questioning and that when constructive feedback was given significant improvements in the quality of work completed. Therefore the interpersonal communication skill set is vital to the engineering workplace and it should be implemented to receive desired and improved results. This report recommends that regular meetings should be
