ptsd

Allison is a 35-year-old Caucasian female who is a disabled veteran that recently lost her job due to a declining state of mental health. Allison has suffered from PTSD for over 10 years. Allison was originally diagnosed with PTSD after returning from combat overseas from the Middle East by the VA and was given an honorable discharge. Allison had incurred a vast amount of trauma throughout her years as a military member including sexual assault by an older service member. Allison has attended mental health treatment at the VA on and off over the last 10 years. Allison has not disclosed the sexual assault with the VA due to shame and fear of retaliation from the military.

Describe how a human service professional would use the biopsychosocial model to assess Allisons needs.
Discuss two types of crises that may have led to Allisons diagnosis of PTSD. Define PTSD and identify three symptoms that Allison may be experiencing because of it.

February 17th, 2021 APA (edition "APA 6"), Humanities Comments Off on Working with Complex Populations

Working with Complex Populations

select a case management manual, which serves one of the populations described in chapter 8 and report on how they work with the population in your initial post. Suggested populations include health care including hospice or chronic illness, mental health, addictions, child welfare, geriatrics, criminal justice, HIV/AIDS, military and veterans, rural communities or the homeless population.

In your post, provide a link to the case management manual you have chosen and state which model of case management is being used. Then, answer one of the following questions:

What are some of the evidence-based interventions and community resources they utilize?
How do they deal with problematic situations (such as some of those discussed in chapter 8)?
Does the agency run into any ethical or legal issues? If so, how they dealt with them?

February 17th, 2021 APA (edition "APA 6"), Humanities Comments Off on Ethics in Evaluations

Ethics in Evaluations

Imagine this scenario: your agency is being evaluated by a governing body. “Client success” is one key element being evaluated by the governing body. In your agency, out of 200 clients seen in the last two years, 85 (or 42.5%) dropped out within the first five weeks of participation. Of the remaining 115 clients, only 35% (40 clients) completed all of their goals, and 65% (75 clients) only completed some of their goals.

In your initial post, address the following questions: What is the most accurate and ethical representation of “success” over the past two years for this agency to report to the governing body? Support your reasoning with references.

February 17th, 2021 Humanities, Undergraduate Comments Off on Explain the concept of aret

Explain the concept of aret

Read the excerpts from Homers Iliad (Links to an external site.) Book 16 and Odyssey (Links to an external site.) Book 9, pp. 138-143 [Follow the links it you want to explore more of the text]. Explain the concept of aret with specific examples from the text and discuss what details you can determine about life in archaic Greece, include clothing and weapons, social interactions, and religion. Your paper must be at least 775 original words in length and in MLA format.

Formatting Guidelines:

This essay must be well-written, and free of spelling and grammatical errors. The essay will be judged on the quality of your understanding of your chosen topic and discussion of the historiography. You should be able to organize a large body of material and facts (and too few facts that are reliable) in order to produce a coherent argument about your topic that is well organized and supported by primary and secondary sources.

Style: Times New Roman 12 point

Sources: Use academic sources only. Avoid the internet as a secondary source (it can be useful for preliminary research but look up the references and use them instead). The library has a small collection of books and journals but does has access to many more online. Use JSTOR to find scholarly articles. Primary sources can be harder to find and you may need to use an online version. This is fine but be careful that it is from a reliable source.

Referencing: you should use MLA Style (parenthetical) referencing

February 17th, 2021 Humanities, MLA Comments Off on Confucianism and Daoism.

Confucianism and Daoism.

Think about what you have learned so far about Confucianism and Daoism.

Which philosophy would create a better society? Why do you think so?

Back your argument up with at least one quote from a primary source (see links below).
The quote you choose should provide evidence for the statements you are making about why you have chosen Confucianism or Daoism.

Your quotes must come from the primary text. The primary text comes below the short introductory explanation; look for the sections with numbered verses. Do not quote from the italicized explanation at the beginning of each reading; they will not count! The goal of this assignment is to get you to work through the poetic language of the primary texts, looking for examples of the concepts we’ve talked about in class. These texts are not simple to understand! You many have to read them more than once.

You must cite your quotes. Use the name of the text (Analects or Daodejing) and the line number in parentheses. For example: “The Master said, ‘Is it not a pleasure, having learned something, to try it out at due intervals?’ (Analects I.1). Any phrases you take from the text must be in quotation marks and cited. You do not need to include the full references (which professors often ask for in a “works cited” section) for this assignment because I already know which texts you’re using.

You may not use any outside sources (beyond the texts I have linked to above) for this assignment. The purpose of this assignment is for you to interact with the primary text.
