Diagnoses Specific to Crisis and Trauma

Discussion: Diagnoses Specific to Crisis and Trauma

Responses to crises and other trauma-causing events often are normal responses to abnormal situations. When these responses result in difficulty functioning in daily life, helping professionals need to consider if the client needs specialized conceptualization within a diagnostic framework. Some diagnoses that require clinical conceptualization and treatment include posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), complex posttraumatic stress disorder (C-PTSD), acute stress disorder, and dissociation. Each of these diagnoses is distinct in terms of how the individual experiences the traumatic event and the idiosyncratic nature of the individual experiencing it. It is important to fully assess a client’s situation before determining a diagnostic category so as to better ensure the most appropriate treatment intervention.

For this Discussion, select one of the following diagnostic categories: C-PTSD, acute stress disorder, or dissociation. Think about the similarities and differences between PTSD and the other diagnostic category you selected. Consider how you would determine the accuracy of a diagnosis of PTSD, C-PTSD, acute stress disorder, and dissociation.

By Day 4

Post two similarities and two differences between PTSD and the other diagnostic category you selected. Explain how you might determine the accuracy of PTSD, C-PTSD, acute stress disorder, and dissociation diagnoses.

Be sure to support your postings and responses with specific references to the resources.

SEXUAL SAFETY

For this assignment, you will design a public health outreach program/informational sheet on the topic of SEXUAL SAFETY. You must focus on educating the public, providing resources, and even prevention efforts. Write a paper stating what you would do.  This is your chance to be creative.  You must identify a target audience for your campaign and provide sources for the information you provide.

Assignments will be graded on the following criteria

  • Clear target audience (e.g. Students, teens, women, etc.): 5 points
  • Accuracy of information: 15 points
  • Quality of paper (writing is free of errors/audio is clear): 15 points:
  • Feasibility of your campaign and identification of resources needed to carry out your program)10 point
  • Sources are identified: 5 points
  • creativeness: 10 points

effective public health communication

Final Report:

Students should produce a four- page report based on their awareness/prevention campaign about a health policy/ disease affecting women’s health locally, nationally, or internationally. It can be a health policy brief or a public health campaign. The intention of generating this report should be well-organized and informative. For both options, think about what one would prepare for a letter to teach and stimulate conversation with stakeholders.

This is a chance for the student to practice effective public health communication through investigating their selected topic of interest more deeply and organizing materials in a way that would facilitate educating stakeholders and peers in class. The report should have a small bibliography with relevant articles and websites. Grade will be based on the quality of the report in terms of accuracy, references to peer-reviewed literature, comprehensiveness, objectivity, creativity/ visual aid and grammar/spelling. Report must be double-spaced, font size 12, properly referenced using APA style (where applicable), proofread, and page numbered. Use Times New Roman font style.

You need to think of this final report as a public health report / brief. Your main purpose is to provide a briefing on a women’s health issue among an immigrant/ refugee group in the United States or another country. You need to consider your audience as stakeholders who you need to convince to take action. Action entails funding for intervention, prevention, or research project for a policy change.

process recording

SOCW 6520 Assignment 2 wk 10 : process recording

A process recording is a written tool used by field education experience students, field instructors, and faculty to examine the dynamics of social work interactions in time. Process recordings can help in developing and refining interviewing and intervention skills. By conceptualizing and organizing ongoing activities with social work clients, you are able to clarify the purpose of interviews and interventions, identify personal and professional strengths and weaknesses, and improve self-awareness. The process recording is also a useful tool in exploring the interpersonal dynamics and values operating between you and the client system through an analysis of filtering the process used in recording a session.

For this Assignment, you will submit a process recording of your field education experiences specific to this week.

Note: You are submitting a written transcript, not an audio or video recording.

The Assignment (2–4 pages):

  • Provide      a transcript of what happened during your field education experience,      including a dialogue of interaction with a client.
  • Explain      your interpretation of what occurred in the dialogue, including social      work practice theories, and explain how it might relate to diversity or      cultural competence covered this week.
  • Describe      your reactions and/or any issues related to your interaction with a client      during your field education experience.
  • Explain      how you applied social work practice skills when performing the activities      during your process recording.

  • Compare any feedback discussed or the revision strategy you mapped out for future success.
  • Point out a connection to your own post by referencing similar experiences or program of study and career choice.

Your response should be about 100 words.

PEERS RESPONSE:

I hope all is well the two feedbacks that I receive were editing and revising. They both are good writing essentials they have slight differences. When revising, you want to make sure that your paper is focus and well- structed  an well organized.  The may reason for revising is to make sure you have everything you need in your paper and removed everything you don’t need. For example a writer might read there paper out loud to make sure everything flows. And to make sure they have the right information to support their ideas. Editing consist of reviewing the small elements such has spelling, grammar, punctuation, and sentence structure. Also editing begins when your paper is close to finish.

The biggest issue I would like to address regarding my writing is learning how to outline  my ideas together to develop a topic. I would like to address on keeping my audience attention which is important when it comes to writing. The smallest issues that can wait in my opinion is editing that can take place at the final stage of writing. My area of strength when it comes to writing is having the right confidence in myself and also learning to how to outline my ideas. When it comes to my revision strategy would have someone to look over my writing to make sure my grammar, and punctuation, spelling  is correct.

What should be the relationship between schools and society?

What should be the relationship between schools and society? The  author and activist James Baldwin once said, in a talk given to a group  of teachers, that “one of the paradoxes of education [is] that  precisely at that point when you begin to develop a conscience, you must  find yourself at war with your society. It is your responsibility to  change society if you think of yourself as an educated person.” Do you  agree with Baldwin? Is it the primary responsibility of teachers and  schools to transmit cultural values to students or to encourage students  to question those values in an effort to improve society? Should  teachers be prepared to teach in the schools we have or the schools we wish we  had? You may wish to answer this from several perspectives: as a  potential teacher, as a future parent, or simply as an informed member  of a local community. 700-1000 words
