Psychopathology – Mental Health Issues

By AssignmentHelp Blog

Psychopathology – Mental Health Issues

Analyze and apply critical thinking skills in the psychopathology of mental health patients and provide treatment and health promotion while applying evidence-based research.

J.T. is a 20 year-old who reports to you that he feels depressed and is experiencing a significant amount of stress about school, noting that he’ll “probably flunk out.” He spends much of his day in his dorm room playing video games and has a hard time identifying what, if anything, is enjoyable in a typical day. He rarely attends class and has avoided reaching out to his professors to try to salvage his grades this semester. J.T. has always been a self-described shy person and has had a very small and cohesive group of friends from elementary through high school. Notably, his level of stress significantly amplified when he began college.

Psychopathology – Mental Health Issues

You learn that when meeting new people, he has a hard time concentrating on the interaction because he is busy worrying about what they will think of him – he assumes they will find him “dumb,” “boring,” or a “loser.” When he loses his concentration, he stutters, is at a loss for words, and starts to sweat, which only serves to make him feel more uneasy. After the interaction, he replays the conversation over and over again, focusing on the “stupid” things he said. Similarly, he has a long-standing history of being uncomfortable with authority figures and has had a hard time raising his hand in class and approaching teachers. Since starting college, he has been isolating more, turning down invitations from his roommate to go eat or hang out, ignoring his cell phone when it rings, and habitually skipping class.

Psychopathology – Mental Health Issues

His concerns about how others view him are what drive him to engage in these avoidance behaviors.

Remember to answer these questions from your textbooks and NP guidelines.

Generate a primary and differential diagnosis using the DSM-5 criteria.
Develop a biopsychosocial plan of care for this client.
Compare and contrast fear, worry, anxiety, and panic.

Your initial post should be at least 500 words, formatted and cited in current APA style with support from at least 2 academic sources.

Cardiovascular Case Study

By AssignmentHelp Blog

Cardiovascular Case Study

Mr. W.G. is a 53-year-old white man who began to experience chest discomfort while playing tennis with a friend. At first, he attributed his discomfort to the heat and having had a large breakfast. Gradually, however, discomfort intensified to a crushing sensation in the sternal area and the pain seemed to spread upward into his neck and lower jaw. The nature of the pain did not seem to change with deep breathing. When Mr. G. complained of feeling nauseated and began rubbing his chest, his tennis partner was concerned that his friend was having a heart attack and called 911 on his cell phone. The patient was transported to the ED of the nearest hospital and arrived within 30 minutes of the onset of chest pain. In route to the hospital, the patient was placed on nasal cannula and an IV D5W was started. Mr. G. received aspirin (325 mg po) and 2 mg/IV morphine. He is allergic to meperidine (rash). His pain has eased slightly in the last 15 minutes but is still significant; was 9/10 in severity; now7/10. In the ED, chest pain was not relieved by 3 SL NTG tablets. He denies chills.

Hematopoietic Case Study

By AssignmentHelp Blog

Hematopoietic Case Study

J.D. is a 37 years old white woman who presents to her gynecologist complaining of a 2-month history of intermenstrual bleeding, menorrhagia, increased urinary frequency, mild incontinence, extreme fatigue, and weakness. Her menstrual period occurs every 28 days and lately there have been 6 days of heavy flow and cramping. She denies abdominal distension, back-ache, and constipation. She has not had her usual energy levels since before her last pregnancy.

Past Medical History (PMH)
Upon reviewing her past medical history, the gynecologist notes that her patient is a G5P5with four pregnancies within four years, the last infant having been delivered vaginally four months ago. All five pregnancies were unremarkable and without delivery complications. All infants were born healthy. Patient history also reveals a 3-year history of osteoarthritis in the left knee, probably the result of sustaining significant trauma to her knee in an MVA when she was 9 years old.

Hematopoietic Case Study

When asked what OTC medications she is currently taking for her pain and for how long she has been taking them, she reveals that she started taking ibuprofen, three tablets each day, about 2.5 years ago for her left knee. Due to a slowly progressive increase in pain and a loss of adequate relief with three tablets, she doubled the daily dose of ibuprofen. Upon the recommendation from her nurse practitioner and because long-term ibuprofen use can cause peptic ulcers, she began taking OTC omeprazole on a regular basis to prevent gastrointestinal bleeding. Patient history also reveals a 3-year history of HTN for which she is now being treated with a diuretic and a centrally acting antihypertensive drug. She has had no previous surgeries. APA.

Hematopoietic Case Study

Case Study Questions

Name the contributing factors on J.D that might put her at risk to develop iron deficiency anemia.
Within the case study, describe the reasons why J.D. might be presenting constipation and or dehydration.
Why Vitamin B12 and folic acid are important on the erythropoiesis? What abnormalities their deficiency might cause on the red blood cells?
The gynecologist is suspecting that J.D. might be experiencing iron deficiency anemia.
In order to support the diagnosis, list and describe the clinical symptoms that J.D. might have positive for Iron deficiency anemia.
If the patient is diagnosed with iron deficiency anemia, what do you expect to find as signs of this type of anemia? List and describe.
Labs results came back for the patient. Hb 10.2 g/dL; Hct 30.8%; Ferritin 9 ng/dL; red blood cells are smaller and paler in color than normal. Research list and describe for appropriate recommendations and treatments for J.D.

Corona Virus Microbiology

By AssignmentHelp Blog

Corona Virus Microbiology

Directions

There are few individuals in the world who have not been impacted by Coronavirus (COVID-19). While some individuals may experience mild symptoms with COVID-19, such as a cough and fever, others may become severely ill and require hospitalization. While individuals over the age of 60 and those with pre-existing conditions are at an increased risk of developing serious illness, COVID-19 can affect anyone.

Initial Post

For your initial post, research the family of coronaviruses and then share what you learn about how a typical coronavirus compares to the SARS-CoV-2 that causes COVID-19. What does it mean for a virus to mutate and what could this mean to the process of developing immunity? Many people have chosen to get vaccinated while others have not. What are the benefits of getting vaccinated and are there any scientific or medical reasons (excluding personal or religious reasons) that could serve as reasonable contraindications to being vaccinated or that would justify prolonging this medical intervention?

PSYC775 Teaching Philosophy Assignment

By AssignmentHelp Blog

PSYC775 Teaching Philosophy Assignment

Overview

The purpose of the Teaching Philosophy Assignment is to generate an initial Teaching Philosophy statement. As described in your textbook, a teaching philosophy is a “description of how you see yourself as a teacher, and especially what you do and do not value in the teaching domain” (Bernstein et al., 2020, p.227). Although teaching philosophies are working documents that will change over time, it can be helpful to consider your personal philosophy of teaching before creating or planning a particular course.

Instructions

You will be writing a teaching philosophy statement focusing on the level of higher education/college teaching. Because many of you may not have prior teaching experience, your philosophy statement does not need to include details related to past teaching methods or experiences, but rather a discussion of what you value educationally and the methods you would use if you were an instructor in the future. Teaching philosophies are personal and subjective. Therefore, the specific content of your statements will vary depending on your individual experiences and values. To help you formulate your teaching philosophy, below is a list of some general questions you may wish to consider when you are composing your statement:

PSYC775 Teaching Philosophy Assignment

What are your motivations for teaching?
Why do you believe teaching is important?
What are some of the positive qualities, teaching methods, or relational skills you have seen in prior teachers you have had?
What teaching methods do you believe are the most effective and valuable?
In your opinion, what are some effective ways to assess student learning?
What are some ways you would choose to evaluate your own teaching performance?
What are your future teaching goals?
How do you hope your future students would describe you as a teacher?
What specific skills would you hope your students would gain from your class?
What is your vision of an ideal classroom climate?

PSYC775 Teaching Philosophy Assignment

Keep in mind these questions are provided as a guide and you do not need to answer them all in your assignment. If you need further ideas or help with your statement, please see the additional guides/websites for constructing a teaching philosophy statement, which can be found on the Teaching Philosophy Assignment page under Teaching Philosophy Resources. Because these statements are so personal, there is no one “right” way to construct a philosophy statement. Your focus should be on thinking through your educational beliefs and experiences and trying to get these thoughts and ideas on paper in a cohesive and organized way.

Assignment requirements include:

Your statement must be 1–2 pages (double-spaced). Brevity is important in a teaching statement. An APA-style title page is required and is not included in this length requirement. You do not need to include an abstract.
Your statement must include a specific discussion of your personal beliefs about teaching. It should not simply be a general literature review on teaching practices. It also should not simply be a list of prior teaching experience (e.g., a resume or CV).
Your statement is not required to contain citations, but if it does, you must include an APA style reference page for any sources used.
First person is allowed for this assignment.
Your paper must be submitted as a Word document.

Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.
