INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO USE EXEMPLAR AND TEMPLATE—READ CAREFULLY
If you are struggling with the format or remembering what to include, follow the Comprehensive Psychiatric Evaluation Template AND the Rubric as your guide. It is also helpful to review the rubric in detail in order not to lose points unnecessarily because you missed something required. Below highlights by category are taken directly from the grading rubric for the assignments. After reviewing full details of the rubric, you can use it as a guide.
In the Subjective section, provide:
· Chief complaint
· History of present illness (HPI)
· Past psychiatric history
· Medication trials and current medications
· Psychotherapy or previous psychiatric diagnosis
· Pertinent substance use, family psychiatric/substance use, social, and medical history
· Allergies
· ROS
· Read rating descriptions to see the grading standards!
In the Objective section, provide:
· Physical exam documentation of systems pertinent to the chief complaint, HPI, and history
· Diagnostic results, including any labs, imaging, or other assessments needed to develop the differential diagnoses.
· Read rating descriptions to see the grading standards!
In the Assessment section, provide:
· Results of the mental status examination, presented in paragraph form.
· At least three differentials with supporting evidence. List them from top priority to least priority. Compare the DSM-5 diagnostic criteria for each differential diagnosis and explain what DSM-5 criteria rules out the differential diagnosis to find an accurate diagnosis. Explain the critical-thinking process that led you to the primary diagnosis you selected. Include pertinent positives and pertinent negatives for the specific patient case .
· Read rating descriptions to see the grading standards!
Reflect on this case. Include what you learned and what you might do differently. Also include in your reflection a discussion related to legal/ethical considerations ( demonstrate critical thinking beyond confidentiality and consent for treatment !), health promotion and disease prevention taking into consideration patient factors (such as age, ethnic group, etc.), PMH, and other risk factors (e.g., socioeconomic, cultural background, etc.).
(The comprehensive evaluation is typically the initial new patient evaluation. You will practice writing this type of note in this course. You will be ruling out other mental illnesses so often you will write up what symptoms are present and what symptoms are not present from illnesses to demonstrate you have indeed assessed for all illnesses which could be impacting your patient. For example, anxiety symptoms, depressive symptoms, bipolar symptoms, psychosis symptoms, substance use, etc.)
EXEMPLAR BEGINS HERE
CC (chief complaint): A brief statement identifying why the patient is here. This statement is verbatim of the patient’s own words about why they are presenting for assessment. For a patient with dementia or other cognitive deficits, this statement can be obtained from a family member.
HPI: Begin this section with patient’s initials, age, race, gender, purpose of evaluation, current medication, and referral reason. For example:
N.M. is a 34-year-old Asian male who presents for psychotherapeutic evaluation for anxiety. He is currently prescribed sertraline by (?) which he finds ineffective. His PCP referred him for evaluation and treatment.
Or
P.H. is a 16-year-old Hispanic female who presents for psychotherapeutic evaluation for concentration difficulty. She is not currently prescribed psychotropic medications. She is referred by her mental health provider for evaluation and treatment.
Then, this section continues with the symptom analysis for your note. Thorough documentation in this section is essential for patient care, coding, and billing analysis.
Paint a picture of what is wrong with the patient. This section contains the symptoms that is bringing the patient into your office. The symptoms onset, the duration, the frequency, the severity, and the impact. Your description here will guide your differential diagnoses. You are seeking symptoms that may align with many DSM-5 diagnoses, narrowing to what aligns with diagnostic criteria for mental health and substance use disorders. You will complete a psychiatric ROS to rule out other psychiatric illnesses.
Past Psychiatric History: This section documents the patient’s past treatments. Use the mnemonic Go Cha MP.
General Statement: Typically, this is a statement of the patients first treatment experience. For example: The patient entered treatment at the age of 10 with counseling for depression during her parents’ divorce. OR The patient entered treatment for detox at age 26 after abusing alcohol since age 13.
Caregivers are listed if applicable.
Hospitalizations: How many hospitalizations? When and where was last hospitalization? How many detox? How many residential treatments? When and where was last detox/residential treatment? Any history of suicidal or homicidal behaviors? Any history of self-harm behaviors?
Medication trials: What are the previous psychotropic medications the patient has tried and what was their reaction? Effective, Not Effective, Adverse Reaction? Some examples: Haloperidol (dystonic reaction), risperidone (hyperprolactinemia), olanzapine (effective, insurance wouldn’t pay for it)
Psychotherapy or Previous Psychiatric Diagnosis: This section can be completed one of two ways depending on what you want to capture to support the evaluation. First, does the patient know what type? Did they find psychotherapy helpful or not? Why? Second, what are the previous diagnosis for the client noted from previous treatments and other providers. (Or, you could document both.) NRNP/PRAC 6645 Comprehensive Psychiatric
Substance Use History : This section contains any history or current use of caffeine, nicotine, illicit substance (including marijuana), and alcohol. Include the daily amount of use and last known use. Include type of use such as inhales, snorts, IV, etc. Include any histories of withdrawal complications from tremors, Delirium Tremens, or seizures.
Family Psychiatric/Substance Use History: This section contains any family history of psychiatric illness, substance use illnesses, and family suicides. You may choose to use a genogram to depict this information (be sure to include a reader’s key to your genogram) or write up in narrative form.
Psychosocial History: This section may be lengthy if completing an evaluation for psychotherapy or shorter if completing an evaluation for psychopharmacology. However, at a minimum, please include:
· Where patient was born, who raised the patient
· Number of brothers/sisters (what order is the patient within siblings)
· Who the patient currently lives with in a home? Are they single, married, divorced, widowed? How many children?
· Educational Level
· Hobbies

Medical History: This section contains any illnesses, surgeries, include any hx of seizures, head injuries.
Current Medications: Include dosage, frequency, length of time used, and reason for use. Also include OTC or homeopathic products.
Allergies: Include medication, food, and environmental allergies separately. Provide a description of what the allergy is (e.g., angioedema, anaphylaxis). This will help determine a true reaction vs. intolerance.
Reproductive Hx: Menstrual history (date of LMP), Pregnant (yes or no), Nursing/lactating (yes or no), contraceptive use (method used), types of intercourse: oral, anal, vaginal, other, any sexual concerns
Diagnostic results: Include any labs, X-rays, or other diagnostics that are needed to develop the differential diagnoses (support with evidenced and guidelines).
A ssessment
Mental Status Examination: For the purposes of your courses, this section must be presented in paragraph form and not use of a checklist! This section you will describe the patient’s appearance, attitude, behavior, mood and affect, speech, thought processes, thought content, perceptions (hallucinations, pseudo hallucinations, illusions, etc.), cognition, insight, judgment, and SI/HI. See an example below. You will modify to include the specifics for your patient on the above elements—DO NOT just copy the example. You may use a preceptor’s way of organizing the information if the MSE is in paragraph form.
He is an 8 yo African American male who looks his stated age. He is cooperative with examiner. He is neatly groomed and clean, dressed appropriately. There is no evidence of any abnormal motor activity. His speech is clear, coherent, normal in volume and tone. His thought process is goal directed and logical.

Also included in this section is the reflection. Reflect on this case and discuss whether or not you agree with your preceptor’s assessment and diagnostic impression of the patient and why or why not. What did you learn from this case? What would you do differently?
Also include in your reflection a discussion related to legal/ethical considerations ( demonstrating critical thinking beyond confidentiality and consent for treatment!), social determinates of health, health promotion and disease prevention taking into consideration patient factors (such as age, ethnic group, etc.), PMH, and other risk factors (e.g., socioeconomic, cultural background, etc.). NRNP/PRAC 6645 Comprehensive Psychiatric
Case Formulation and Treatment Plan.
Includes documentation of diagnostic studies that will be obtained, referrals to other health care providers, therapeutic interventions with psychotherapy, education, disposition of the patient, and any planned follow-up visits. Each diagnosis or condition documented in the assessment should be addressed in the plan. The details of the plan should follow an orderly manner. *see an example below—you will modify to your practice so there may be information excluded/included—what does your preceptor document?
Example:
Initiation of (what form/type) of individual, group, or family psychotherapy and frequency.
Documentation of any resources you provide for patient education or coping/relaxation skills, homework for next appointment.

Assessment
Mental Status Examination: Patti is a 40 year old Iranian female who is present for a family psychotherapy session and evaluation. She has a sad and annoyed tone, she reports feeling hopeless and lonely. She has recently been in individual therapy to reconcile her emotions about her disability and children support level in her life. She is alert and oriented to person, place, time, and situation, she has an appropriate thought process with clear and coherent speech. She is appropriately dressed and appears neatly groomed. Her speech is clear and coherent; no signs of tangent speech. She denies visual or auditory hallucinations, denies suicidal or homicidal ideations. During the interview, Patti identifies the problems that she has with her children, and relates her sadness to her children’s inability to support her in her time of need. Patti continuously becomes enraged by her children’s various inabilities to be cultural and attentive to her needs.
Differential Diagnoses:
1. Adjustment Disorder: Adjustment disorder begins three months within onset of a
stressor and lasts no longer than six months after the stressor as long as the stressor has
ceased. Criteria for a diagnosis of adjustment disorder is having the presence of
emotional or behavioral symptoms in response to an identifiable stressor; the stressor
may be a single event. multiple stressors, or recurrent or continuous stressors. The

https://www.coursehero.com/file/107191608/WK2Assign1docx/
stressor may affect a single individual or entire family (American Psychiatric
Association, 2013). Patti was raised with Iranian values and based on traditional cultural
values attempts to project those expectations on her children. In a study, challenges
associated with sociocultural adjustment in a new country resulting from dissonance
between one’s culture of origin and the host culture (acculturative stress) are of poor
mental health. Family conflict was associated with poorer mental health and
psychological distress for immigrants. (Sangalang et al., 2019). Adjustment disorder is
the primary diagnosis for Patti, Patti consistently expresses her wish to have her children
be in her presence majority of the time, along with a wish for active involvement in her
children’s lives. Patti’s recent disability leaves her unable to engage in personal hobbies
and reliant on her children for companionship. This persistent stressor of having children
grow up and wanting independence causes an adjustment disorder for Patti, her
engagement in therapy with Sandi allows her to realize the cultural shifts occurring in her
family and her need to release control and adjust to the changing times.
2. Major Depressive Disorder: According to the DSM 5, MDD is present when five or
more of the selected symptoms are present during the same two week period. Symptoms
such as : depressed mood (signs of hopelessness, emptiness or sadness), loss of interest or
pleasure, insomnia or hypersomnia, psychomotor agitation or retardation , daily fatigue or
loss of energy the patient experiences, feelings of worthlessness or excessive or
inappropriate guilt, recurrent thoughts of death or suicidal ideations with or without a
plan (American Psychiatric Association, 2013). Patti displays primarily hopelessness, and
helplessness. Although she displays these symptoms, it is evident that she still expresses
interest in different tasks of pleasure, however, the primary issue is her physical disability

and lack of support from her children. Patients who displays five of the diagnostic
symptoms of MDD, expressing signs of hopelessness, insomnia, fatigue, guilt and
worthlessness, suicidal ideations. This differential diagnosis is ruled out for Patti because
of her resolved underlying depression with individual therapy. Patients that met criteria of
MDD have distinguished levels of severity of MDD such as cognitive dysfunction, age,
psychosis, employment, and suicide ideation. (Tolentino and Schmnidt, 2018).
3. Generalized Anxiety Disorder: The DSM 5 defines GAD as anxiety or worrying about
having difficulty controlling worrying, excessive anxiety and worrying that occurs more
days than not for at least six months, symptoms such as restlessness, fatigue, irritability,
muscle tension, and muscle tension (American Psychological association, 2013). The
patient does not express fatigue, restlessness, or does not have excessive worrying about
her life or children; although she complains, she does not have excessive debilitating
uncontrolled anxiety or worrying over the actual current circumstance. The results of a
study utilizing the GAD-7 as a diagnostic tool referenced points that increased a patients
rating on the scale such as: the inability to sit still, or worrying about too many different
things (Jordan et al., 2017). Patti does not signify excessive worrying, inability to sit still,
or inability to stop worrying; therefore GAD would not be an appropriate primary
diagnosis for the patient.
Reflections: Ethical considerations for this patient is awareness of personal cultural
biases as well as clarification and identification of the client’s cultural biases and
hesitancies. The patient’s perceptions about the effectiveness of mental health services
and potential barriers to achievement of treatment goals should also be identified.
Cultural stereotypes might hinder the utilization of mental health services, due to fear of

discrimination and devaluation (Bracke et al., 2019). If I were conducting this interview, I
would have had Patti expand on her childhood and explore dependence on other people.
Understanding Patti’s background will give me as the practitioner more insight into
Patti’s understanding of what a family is and how to tailor her individual and therapy
goals.
Case Formulation and Treatment Plan
Initiation of individual therapy for Patti once considering her disability and access to
transportation.
Time was allotted for questions and answers were provided. Provided supportive
listening. Client appeared to understand discussion and reflective team, but remains
hesitant to change. Client agrees to follow treatment regimen as discussed.
Follow up with psychiatrist as needed for medication adjustment, and weekly sessions.
Attend weight watchers sessions as discussed in the interview.
Recommendation for a competition of emotional intelligence testing. Rationale: Patti is
seemingly unaware of how her emotions impact her children. This test will give the client
insight into how to perceive, identify, understand, and manage her emotions.
Return to clinic in two weeks
