SOLVED81

Good afternoon. Would you please help me to proofread my two discussion board responses? I need help with sentencing and better wording. Thank you! =)

 

 

1-   Hi Ann,

 

 What a great post and a difficult situation you were in. I think you did terrific about letting his family know his wish to stop treatments due to his pain and exhaustion, although the family was against it. I think it’s crucial to include the patient in his care, but we need to consider the entire situation before making any decisions in his treatment plan. In this case that involves a life-death situation, a mental health provider should be investigating if this is the actual wishes of the patient or if he is saying that because of that stage of his life being extremely challenging. When people are desperate or in pain, they may say or do things they do not wish. This is why it is essential to have a mental health professional assess this patient before making any decision affecting his life and treatment.

” Sometimes, a patient’s physical pain may not improve until psychological issues are addressed. For example, they may feel distressed, anxious, or isolated” (Marie Curie, 2022). 

Great topic!

 

 

 

 

2- Hi Bella, 

Your post fascinates me, and since I also work at a mental health facility, I understand what you are talking about. At my facility, it is employed a signature consent every time that a medication dose is added or changed, and the patient needs to sign he agrees and also needs to receive education about the medication’s side effects. Although they have already taken it, it is essential to re-educate them, especially in the mental health facilities, since their mind is not there, and sometimes they are not open to learning due to mental issues at the time of treatment. I agree that if the doctor doesn’t listen to them, their treatment success rate dramatically falls. Patients will feel defeated, and it may trigger symptoms that would take them to the opposite side of treatment, and the patient may isolate or develop other mental issues that would be prejudice to their treatment. If the doctor does not listen to them, bringing them to the treatment team as patient advocates is essential. Great Post! Thank you for sharing!
