Person centred care means basing the care and support of a person around them. Looking at things from their perspective, promoting their beliefs, preference, likes and dislikes. They are involved in the development of their support plans, risk assessments and what they want to achieve. They determine what they want and how they want things doing. It promotes their individual needs and what is important to them. We listen to the individual and find out about their wishes and look at ways of carrying this out as safely as possible. We work with the individual, their families and others to empower the individual and to promote independence in their lives and ensure that the individual is supported to maintain their lives as they
I would have terminated early when signs of high stress levels on the participants were visible. Such as them forgetting the concept that they can leave at the time and showing signs that they felt institutionalized. A follow up study should have occurred to understand the mind set of all the individuals involved.
My internship, Friends of Youth, is closely connected with Lakeside Milam Recovery Centers and I therefore decided that would be a great place to learn more about incase I needed to refer any of my clients to them. In order to gain more information about Lakeside Milam I spoke with the administrator, Dan Labuda and the director of the inpatient facility in Burien, Mary Fredrickson. Dan provided me information about Lakeside Milam as a whole, while Mary gave me an intake look at inpatient treatment and gave me a tour of Lakeside Milam.
There’s a high rate of homelessness among the children who was been in the foster care but age out. Many children are going to the foster care because of many tragedies they already had before they even understand what is life all about. Fortunately, for them, there are some people who try to help them out and give them a second shot at life. And having a child of my own gives me a full understanding how much a parent 's guidance and love mean to their lives and I am trying to introduce adoptuskids.org to help raise awareness of homelessness and adoption to all the people and hoping that the children in the foster care system will get a lot of help, support, and love.

D1: I have decided to look at a 6 year old going through bereavement. Bereavement means to lose an individual very close to you. When children go through bereavement they are most likely to feel sad and upset about the person’s death. Children at a young age may not understand when a family member dies. Children may not understand bereavement. For example a 6 year old’s father been in a car crash and has died from that incident. Death is unpredictable and children can’t be prepared for a death of a family member as no one knows when someone is going to die or not. Unfortunately every child can experience bereavement even when a pet dies. It is important that we are aware that effects on the child so we can support them in the aftermath.
Anticipating high recidivism rates of psychiatric patients and factoring the short-length of stay on the Inpatient Psychiatry Unit, I took this a step further by planning for ongoing support. Typically, a brief solution-focused therapy and crisis intervention model were utilized. I organized a weekly group focused on crisis management. During that time, I had Veterans evaluate their most recent crisis; identify triggers, warning signs, positive forms of coping, and sources of support. They were then given a list of recommendations which encouraged them to ask for help, evaluate the information being provided by others, maintain medication compliance, attend appointments, and remove or limit access to any identified means of harm. Veterans were encouraged to share this with those in their identified support system (if any). I also presented this information to the multidisciplinary team and advocated for consideration of these factors during the Veteran’s treatment and discharge planning. In essence, each Veteran was given the opportunity to create a safety plan and prepare for a

In this phase you want to pay close attention to the shift in thinking and behaviors. You want to see progress in handling stress and individual triggers. Working with case managers, you will identify areas of high risk and appropriately source those areas out, so the participant is getting the necessary support to decrease and reverse those areas. Shifts in thinking and subsequent behavior will dictate if a person is ready to move forward from this phase. Again you are looking for consistency in actions and follow through from thoughts and actions. You want
Treatment for co-occurring disorders can be addressed in both individual therapy, group, and family counseling. Through group and family counseling, the client will be able to establish a support system that can be utilized post-treatment. The Veterans Health Administration (VHA) handbook states that the continuum of care makes it possible for the unique needs of the patient be matched with the intensity and setting of care initially, as well as for the patient to move to more or less intense level of care as needed (United States Department of Veterans Affairs, 2012). This provides veterans with options for out-patient care, continued residential care, and support groups to aid in the transition of treatment to a recovery based process of change. Support groups are encouraged methods of working a program of recovery post-treatment through peer support and can address specific needs such as PTSD with fellow survivors that share common traumatic experiences. Veterans will also find support in more anonymous groups tailored toward their addictive behaviors and in many cases a community of veteran survivors’ network can be established within these larger groups. The responsibility of change remains with the individual’s continued care, yet services are still provided to allow the client to return for further treatment whenever it is deemed

There is also a need to ensure that Aboriginal community environments are also culturally safe and promote the strengthening of culture.

What is a social work? “Social work is a profession which promotes social change and problem solving in human relationships and the empowerment and liberation of people to enhance wellbeing. Utilizing theories of human behaviour and social systems, social work intervenes at the point where people interact with their environments. Principles of human rights and social justice are fundamental to social work”. (Understanding Social work, Neil Thompson, 2005, page 13, 2nd Edition). Social workers convey their enthusiasm and sense of duty regarding fill in as they help construct more grounded groups, families, and people. Amid the meeting procedure, I was set up to talk about contextual investigations in which extreme choices need to be made and
To take it a step further, when a follow-up is conducted, the social worker will know if the client needs to be reassessed or if contact is no longer needed. The main objective is to help the client obtain the help he or she needs.
