Mental Health Practicum

Client Termination Summary

Although termination is an inevitable part of the therapeutic process, it is often difficult for clients. However, by discussing termination throughout therapy, you can better prepare your clients for life without you. Once a client has achieved his or her therapeutic goals, termination sessions should be held and documented in a client termination summary.

For this Assignment, you have the opportunity to practice writing a termination summary for a client with whom you have worked during your practicum experience.

                                          Learning Objectives

Students will:

· Develop client termination summaries

To prepare:

· For guidance on writing a client termination summary, review pages 693–712 of

Wheeler (2014) in this week’s Learning Resources.

· Identify a client who may be ready to terminate therapy.

                                                               The Assignment

· Identifying information of client (e.g., hypothetical name and age)

· Date the client initially contacted therapist, date therapy began, duration of

therapy, and date therapy will end

· Total number of sessions, including number of missed sessions

· Whether termination was planned or unplanned

· Presenting problem

· Major psychosocial issues

· Types of services rendered (e.g., individual, couple/family therapy, group therapy)

· Overview of treatment process

· Goal status (goals met, partially met, unmet)

· Treatment limitations (if any)

· Remaining difficulties and/or concerns

· Recommendations

· Follow-up plan (if indicated)

· Instructions for future contact

· Signatures

With the client you selected in mind, address in a client termination summary (without violating HIPAA regulations) the following:

How staff training is linked to any update in healthcare technology for Best Hospital staff

Read the following case study:

Best Hospital is a 325-bed suburban community hospital that has just merged with a local major academic medical center, the University of Excellence Medical Center (UEMC). There are 15 hospitals in the UEMC system, ranging from small rural hospitals with 50 or fewer beds to large multiple-specialty tertiary referral hospitals. Two hospitals in the system have achieved magnet status and several hospitals are working to achieve this status. Within the UEMC system, a high value is placed on collaboration with the schools of the health professions at the University of Excellence (UE). 

Best Hospital has a long history of association with local universities, functioning mainly as a site for student clinical experiences. For example, undergraduate students enrolled at the UE College of Health Professions often complete a portion of their clinical work at the hospital. Each year the hospital hires a number of graduates from this program. Several nurses in first-level management positions at the hospital are enrolled in the master’s program.

The vice-president for clinical practice at Best Hospital is a PhD-prepared nurse who has been appointed to the faculty at the UE School of Nursing. Your current position is director of staff development at Best Hospital. You are responsible for the educational programming of all clinical staff. Over the past 2 years, Best Hospital has been fully involved in meeting Meaningful Use criteria. As director of staff development, you have played the major leadership role in developing and implementing all related educational programs. 

The health professional schools at UE are working together to revise their curricula to integrate informatics throughout. The goal is to develop an interprofessional approach that incorporates informatics across and throughout the different educational programs within these schools. The schools have requested a meeting with clinical leaders from the hospital to gain a practical perspective on what information should be included in the curricula. The vice-president for clinical practice has included you on the list of leaders to attend the meeting. She asked that each person attending the meeting prepare a short presentation on how they engage their staff in the continuous education process with respect to ever-changing healthcare technology.

How does staff training of key personnel and reinforcement of central line catheter hub hygiene reduce the incidence of CLABSIs (Central Line Associated Blood-stream Infections)

Week 5 Assignment Instructions

Sources need to be less than five years old and journal/scholarly articles. 

Use only articles that are published between 2013-2018 (except for your theory articles which will be older as you must cite primary sources).

No textbook or direct quotes

There need to be a Thesis 

Rubric Requirements must be met 

The Institute of Medicine set a goal that 90% of health care decisions should be evidence-based by 2020. At best guess, less than 10% of decisions use best evidence. Bridging the gap between research, findings, and practice implementation is one strategy to meet this important goal. This assignment will help you to find gaps that may be used for your project.

Diseases, Illnesses And Dagnosis

An anxious patient is having rapid and shallow breathing. After a few moments, he complains of a tingling sensation.

What could be the causes of this tingling sensation?

What are the various patterns of respiration and their significance?

Ethnicity and culture influence risk factors for heart disease. Do you agree? Why or why not?

What is the technique of percussion and palpation of the chest wall for tenderness, symmetry, bulges, fremitus, and thoracic expansion? Explain.

Would you anticipate hearing hyper-resonance on a patient with a history of tobacco use? Why or why not?

What are the mechanics of breathing with reference to lung borders and the anatomical structure of the lungs and diaphragm?

The patient is having rapid and shallow breathing because of a decrease in Co2 in the blood to the extremities. The patient is experiencing hyperventilation. This could be a result of a panic attack or cardiac related.

Norml respirations between 12-20 breaths/min. The chest expands and falls with a normal and even rate and rhythm Tachypnea: Respiratory rate that is above 20 breath/min. Some things that can cause this change is fever, pain, anxiety, respiratory issues. Bradypnea: Respiratory rate below 12 breaths per/min. Some causes of this could be certain medications such as narcotics or sedatives. Cheyene Stokes: Deep shallow breathing with periods of apnea. This could be in relation to renal faluire or drug overdose. African Americans are at a higher risk for devoloping heart disease due to genetics. Yes, I do agree because African Americans consume alot of sodium in their diet, and are geneticly sensitive to salt consumption which causes an increase in blood volume and raises blood pressure.

Palpitation: Stand behind the patient and place your thumbs at the 10 th rib. Your hands will be out with thumbs touching. You can ask your patient to take a deep breath and you would watch for symmetry movement on your thumbs. During this point in the examination you will ask the patient to say ninety-nine as you bring your hands down along the sides of chest. You should have the same type of vibration throughout as you make your way down. To feel for bulges you would assess both posteriorly and anteriorly. You would use the tips of your fingers and gently palpate the area below the breast tissue. Percussion: You can perform the anterior assessment this way with your patient lying down. Then, strike the finger placed on the patient’s skin with the end of the middle finger of your dominant hand. You are listening and feeling for differences.

For someone that has a history of tobacco use, I would anticipate hyper resonance because tobacco use can cause emphysema or COPD. The action of breathing in and out is due to changes of pressure within the thorax, in comparison with the outside. This action is also known as external respiration . When we inhale the intercostal muscles (between the ribs) and diaphragm contract to expand the chest cavity. The diaphragm flattens and moves downwards and the intercostal muscles move the rib cage upwards and out. This increase in size decreases the internal air pressure and air from the outside (at a now higher pressure that inside the thorax) rushes into the lungs to equalise the pressures. When we exhale the diaphragm and intercostal muscles relax and return to their resting positions. This reduces the size of the thoracic cavity, thereby increasing the pressure and forcing air out of the lungs
