Medical vocabulary

OVERVIEW
Medical professionals routinely use abbreviations; therefore, you need to have a general understanding of these abbreviations as well as which ones to avoid. Some abbreviations, symbols, and dose designations have been reported as being frequently misinterpreted and involved in harmful medication errors. Error prone abbreviations should not be used when communicating medical information. By using and promoting safe practices and by educating one another about hazards, we can better protect our patients.

INSTRUCTIONS
Create a list of 20 common medical abbreviations with the long form and definition of each one. Include an additional 10 abbreviations that are error prone and must be avoided. Note the error-prone abbreviation, how it is misinterpreted, the correct abbreviation, long form, and definition. Use the provided template chart to complete this assignment. You must include a reference page in current APA format, citing at least 1 scholarly source published within the last 5 years.

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

Application of the Problem-Solving Model and Theoretical Orientation to a Case Study

Final Case Assignment: Application of the Problem-Solving Model and Theoretical Orientation to a Case Study

The problem-solving model was first laid out by Helen Perlman. Her seminal 1957 book, Social Casework: A Problem-Solving Process, described the problem-solving model and the 4Ps. Since then, other scholars and practitioners have expanded the problem-solving model and problem-solving therapy. At the heart of problem-solving model and problem-solving therapy is helping clients identify the problem and the goal, generating options, evaluating the options, and then implementing the plan.

Because models are blueprints and are not necessarily theories, it is common to use a model and then identify a theory to drive the conceptualization of the client’s problem, assessment, and interventions. Take, for example, the article by Westefeld and Heckman-Stone (2003). Note how the authors use a problem-solving model as the blueprint in identifying the steps when working with clients who have experienced sexual assault. On top of the problem-solving model, the authors employed crisis theory, as this theory applies to the trauma of going through sexual assault. Observe how, starting on page 229, the authors incorporated crisis theory to their problem-solving model.

In this Final Case Assignment, using the case Studay Ella Schultz is the case study you will use the problem-solving model AND a theory from the host of different theoretical orientations you have used for the case study.

You will prepare a PowerPoint presentation consisting of 11,

• Review the problem-solving model, focusing on the five steps of the problem-solving model formulated by D’Zurilla on page 388 in the textbook.

• In addition, review this article listed in the Learning Resources: Westefeld, J. S., & Heckman-Stone, C. (2003). The integrated problem-solving model of crisis intervention: Overview and application. The Counseling Psychologist, 31(2), 221–239.

Your presentation should address the following:

• Identify the theoretical orientation you have selected to use.

• Describe how you would assess the problem orientation of the client in your selected case study (i.e., how the client perceives the problem). Remember to keep the theoretical orientation in mind in this assessment stage.

• Discuss the problem definition and formulation based on the theoretical orientation you have selected.

• Identify and describe two solutions from all the solutions possible. Remember, some of these solutions should stem from the theoretical orientation you are utilizing.

• Describe how you would implement the solution. Remember to keep the theoretical orientation in mind.

• Describe the extent to which the client is able to mobilize the solutions for change.

• Discuss how you would evaluate whether the outcome is achieved or not. Remember to keep the theoretical orientation in mind.

• Explain how well the problem-solving model can be used for short-term treatment of this client.

• Describe one merit and one limitation of using the problem-solving model for this case.
