WK 4

· Display your photo ID at the start of the video when you introduce yourself.

· Ensure that you do not include any information that violates the principles of HIPAA (i.e., don’t use the patient’s name or any other identifying information).

· State 3–4 objectives for the presentation that are targeted, clear, use appropriate verbs from Bloom’s taxonomy, and address what the audience will know or be able to do after viewing.

· Present the full complex case study. Include chief complaint; history of present illness; any pertinent past psychiatric, substance use, medical, social, family history; most recent mental status exam; current psychiatric diagnosis including differentials that were ruled out; and plan for treatment and management.

· Report normal diagnostic results as the name of the test and “normal” (rather than specific value). Abnormal results should be reported as a specific value. 

· Pose three questions or discussion prompts, based on your presentation, that your colleagues can respond to after viewing your video.

· Be succinct in your presentation, and do not exceed 8 minutes. Specifically address the following for the patient, using your SOAP note as a guide.

·
Subjective: What details did the patient provide regarding their chief complaint and symptomology to derive your differential diagnosis? What is the duration and severity of their symptoms? How are their symptoms impacting their functioning in life?

·
Objective: What observations did you make during the psychiatric assessment? 

·
Assessment: Discuss their mental status examination results. What were your differential diagnoses? Provide a minimum of three possible diagnoses and why you chose them. List them from highest priority to lowest priority. What was your primary diagnosis, and why? Describe how your primary diagnosis aligns with 
DSM-5
-TR diagnostic criteria and is supported by the patient’s symptoms.

·
Plan: What was your plan for psychotherapy (include one health promotion activity and patient education)? What was your plan for treatment and management, including alternative therapies? Include pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic treatments, alternative therapies, and follow-up parameters, as well as a rationale for this treatment and management plan.  Discuss an identified social determinate of health impacting this patient’s mental health status and provide your recommendation for a referral to assist this patient in meeting this identified need (students will need to conduct research on this topic both in the literature and for community resources).

·
Reflection notes: What would you do differently with this patient if you could conduct the session again? If you are able to follow up with your patient, explain whether these interventions were successful and why or why not. If you were not able to conduct a follow-up, discuss what your next intervention would be.

Respond at least 2 times each to all colleagues who presented this week (should be 2-3 presenters each week). The goal is for the discussion forum to function as robust clinical conferences on the patients. Provide a response to 1 of the 3 discussion prompts that your colleagues provided in their video presentations. You may also provide additional information, alternative points of view, research to support treatment, or patient education strategies you might use with the relevant patient.

CASE STUDY

Respond to this case study and answer the questions appropriately.

Case study: 32 yr old Arabic male with limited English language who presented to the clinic for control of depressive episodes and in a bad mood. Pt was discharged hospital. He has had two hospitalizations in recent time. Pt lives I a group home. He had 3 siblings but has not made any contact with them. The father left him at the age of 4. Pt reports history of physical abuse and attempted suicides from over dose medications. He also has a history of alcohol abuse from age 13, He had his last drink like a year ago. Pt has no support system except the group home where he lives. No report of suicidal or homicidal thoughts recently.

Diagnoses are Schizophrenia and Major Depressive Disorder.

3 differential diagnoses:

3. Bipolar Disorder.

Plan: Continue with medication management. Educate pt on hygiene, physical exercise and staying outdoors when possible, listening to music, community resources for job placement for disability people. Medication education and need for follow up appointment.

3 questions to answer:

1. Do you think that we can accurately diagnosis pt without having all pts information like hospital visits:

2. Do we except the pt to be symptom free from his diagnosis or manage his symptoms?

3. Is it ethical to treat pt based on what symptoms he reports or use information collected from others around the pt.
