Logotherapy

(Viktor Frankl): life with meaning; therapy as search for that meaning (logos). People that know their life has more meaning were able to cope better.

Reality therapy

(William Glasser) Focus on person's behavior and how that behavior keeps a person from achieving life goals. Those who are unsuccessful, often blamed their problems on other people, the system, or society. Challenges people to examine ways their own behavior impedes their ability to achieve goals.

Hospital (inpatient) treatment

(often last mode of treatment) Indications: severe depression/suicidal; severe psychosis; alcohol or drug withdrawal; behaviors requiring close supervision in a safe, supportive environment

Transference (Freud)

(patient transferring to therapist) Occurs when the client unconsciously displaces onto the therapist attitudes & feelings the client originally experienced in other relationships (i.e. a female client working with a nurse the same age as her mother might react to the nurse like she reacts to her mother).

Supportive interventions: deal with person's need for empathetic understanding, encourage discussion of feelings, affirm person's self-worth.

Abraham Maslow Hierarchy of needs

Shorter impatient stays...

Can be as effective as longer hospitalizations, just as likely to attend follow-up programs, more likely to be employed, & show improved social functioning than those with longer stays.

How to Phrase Questions

Clarification to confirm nurse's understanding of what client is conveying. Identification of client's avoidance of anxiety-producing topic. Client may begin discussing topic of minimal importance because it is less threatening than issue that is increasing anxiety. Ask client which issue is most important at this time. Guidance in problem-solving, empowerment to change. Involve client as he/she is more likely to follow through on the solutions

Ivan Pavlov

Classical Conditioning - behavior can be changed through conditioning with environmental stimuli. Dog experiment - smell food (stimulus) = salivate (response) Ring bell (new stimulus) + food = dogs salivate After pairing, ring bell = dogs salivate

Jean Piaget's Theory of Cognitive Development

Cognitive, intellectual development progresses through a series of stages based on age, with demonstration of a higher level of functioning with each successive stage. Sensorimotor (birth-2 yrs) - self as separate, object permanence. Preoperational (2-6 yrs) - uses language to express self, symbolic gestures. Concrete operations (6-12 yrs) - applies rules, spatiality/reversibility; more social. Formal operations (12-15 yrs & beyond) - thinks/reasons in abstract terms. (critical thinking)

Conditions of touch

Comforting and supportive; also possible invasion of intimate & personal space. Evaluate client for cues that show whether touch is indicated. The nurse must evaluate use of touch based on the client's preferences, history, and needs. For example, clients with a history of abuse, hospital/unit policies.

Factors in cultural assessment

Communication Physical space or distance Social organization Time orientation Environmental control Biologic variations

Basic-level functions (of practice)

Hildegard Peplau

Described the therapeutic nurse-client relationship with its phases and tasks Interpersonal dimension crucial to her beliefs is foundation for current practice.

Response to drugs - (individual factors)

Differences in ethnic groups related to metabolism, efficacy. Slower metabolism = need for lower doses Non-whites have higher serum levels + suffer more A.E.s

Mental health

Difficult to define No single, universal definition Many components influenced by factors Dynamic, ever-changing state A continuum a state of emotional, psychological, and social wellness evidenced by satisfying relationships, effective behavior and coping, positive self-concept, and emotional stability

Teach client, family necessary self-care skills. Recognize client's needs; implement interventions to address client's needs. Guide client toward more positive coping strategies & solutions.

The nurse uses therapeutic communication skills to achieve the following goals

Establish rapport by being empathetic, genuine, caring, unconditionally accepting of the person. Identify issues of concern. Gain an in-depth understanding of the client's perception. Explore client's thoughts, feelings. Guide client in developing problem-solving skills. Promote client's evaluation of solutions.

Self-Awareness Issues

Everyone has unique or different values, ideas, and beliefs. Possible conflict between personal values/beliefs & those of client. Need to accept differences; view each client as worthwhile regardless of opinions or lifestyle. Self-awareness through reflection. Keep diary, journal about experiences & related feelings. Seek alternative viewpoints - put yourself in the client's shoes. No one theory or treatment approach is effective for all patients. Using a variety of psychosocial approaches increases a nurse's effectiveness. Client's feelings & perceptions about his/her situation are the most influential factors in determining his or her response to therapeutic interventions - NOT what the nurses believes the client should do

3 prevention types

Examples include: Primary prevention: stress management education. Secondary prevention: early identification of mental health problems. Tertiary prevention: monitoring, coordinating psychiatric rehabilitation services.

Assertive Communication

Expression of positive and negative feelings/ideas in open, honest, direct way. Calm, specific factual statements. Focus on "I" statements.

Mental health is evidenced in people by satisfying interpersonal relationships, effective behavior and coping, positive self-concept, and emotional stability.

Physical health, health practices (exercise) - (individual factors)

Healthier = better coping with stress or illness. Poor nutrition, lack of sleep,& chronic illness impair one's ability to cope - modifiable factors.

Genetics, biologic factors (individual factors)

Heredity & biologic factors are not under voluntary control - cannot change these factors. Studies show many mental disorders appear more frequently in families. Biologic make up influences person's response to illness & treatment

DSM Axis

I - Clinical Disorders (Schizophrenia, Depression, etc.) II - Personality Disorders; Intellectual Disability III - Physical Disorders; Medical Conditions IV - Psychosocial/Environmental Factors (unemployment; homeless; divorce) V - GAF (global assessment of functioning - clients overall ability to function; 1-100 scoring; score of 50 is significantly impaired)

Dorothea Dix

Provides basis for individual assessment in order to be culturally competent and implement care that meets client's need. Client is the best source of information.

Nurse's Role in Working with Patients from Various Cultures

Knowledge seeking about patient's cultural values, beliefs, health practices. Patient as best source of information. General cultural knowledge to guide nurse in initial meetings, decisions about what questions to ask. Preferences, health practices, beliefs.

Psychosocial and environmental problems (i.e. problems with primary support group, the social environment, education, occupation, housing, access to health care, and the legal system).

Categories of crises

Maturational (developmental) - predictable events in normal course of life, i.e. leaving home for 1st time, getting married, having baby. Situational - unanticipated/sudden events that threaten person's integrity, i.e. death of loved one, loss of job, physical illness. Adventitious (social) - natural disasters, war, violent crimes.

Understanding Meaning & Spirituality of Communication

Meaning: usually more meaning than just spoken word Need to accurately identify the meaning of the message (i.e. "I am going to kill you!" takes on two different messages depending on the context). Validation with client of verbal, nonverbal information Assessment of the context focuses on: Who was there. What happened. When it occurred. How event progressed. Why client believes it happened as it did.

Projects for Assistance in Transition from Homelessness (PATH program) - funds community-based outreach, mental health services ACCESS Demonstration Project - sites evidenced improved outcomes using outreach & intensive case management.

Overall assessment data

Not isolated bits of information Patterns or themes in data → nursing diagnoses Psychological tests - IQ & personality tests Psychiatric diagnoses - DSM-5 Mental status exam (MSE) - focuses on cognitive abilities

Unknowing (5th pattern of knowing)

Nurse admits lack of knowledge of client or understanding of client's subjective world. Authentic encounter devoid of any preconceptions. Nurse is open to hearing client's views without imposing his/her own values.

Psychosocial Interventions

Nursing activities that enhance patient's social & psychological functioning. They promote social skills, interpersonal relationships, & communication. Psychosocial interventions used by nurses to help meet client's needs & achieve outcomes in all practice settings - not just in mental health.

Assertive Community Treatment (ACT)

One of the most effective approaches Belief that skills training, support, & teaching should be done in the community where it is needed rather than hospital. Problem-solving orientation. No problem is too small. Direct provision of service rather than referral. Implement services in clients' homes or communities - not offices. Services intense - 3 or more face-to-face contacts to meet client's needs; no time constraints; team approach allows all staff to be familiar with all clients - no waiting for assigned contact.

Body language (non verbal) - open, closed

Open body position - sit facing client, legs uncrossed, hands at side. Demonstrates unconditional positive regard, trust, care, & acceptance. Nonthreatening eye contact, leaning forward indicates acceptance. Closed body position -crossed legs, folded arms, might threaten listener. Sitting behind desk creates barrier & decrease client's willingness to open up.

Interview Questions

B. F. Skinner

Operant Conditioning All behavior learned. Consequences result from behavior (reward or punishment). Recurrence of rewarded behavior.

Establishing a Therapeutic Relationship (peplau's model)

Orientation Working Termination Overlapping, interlocking of phases

Sensorium/intellectual Processes

Orientation/confusion - person, place, time, situation. Memory - recent/remote. Abnormal sensory experiences or misperceptions. Concentration - ask client to do tasks - spell word backwards. Abstract thinking abilities - interpret a common proverb - literal interpretations are evidence of concrete thinking.

Factors Influencing Assessment

Patient participation/feedback. Client's health status. Client's previous experiences/misconceptions about health care. Client's ability to understand. Nurse's attitude, approach.

Mentally ill

People who fail to fulfill roles and carry out responsibilities OR whose behavior is inappropriate viewed as ill.

therapeutic nurse-patient relationship: four phases

Peplau Orientation (directed by nurse, engage client in treatment, answer questions). Identification (client works interdependently with nurse, feels stronger). Exploitation (client makes full use of services offered). Resolution (no longer needs professional services; gives up dependent behavior (see Table 3.5)

Social networks, social support

Perception of support system (must feel support bolsters confidence, providing assistance with problem solving). Responsiveness of support system (actions consistent with client's desires). Family support, friends, coworkers, etc. Promotes health & wellbeing.

Self-concept

Personal view of self. Description of physical self. Personal qualities or attributes. Ask person to describe themselves

Psychosocial Assessment Purpose

Picture of patient's current emotional state, mental capacity, behavioral function. Basis for developing plan of care. Clinical baseline to evaluate effectiveness of treatment or measure patient's progress.

B.F. Skinner and Reinforcement

Positive reinforcement after behavior increases the frequency of the behavior. Removal of negative reinforcers after behavior increases the frequency of the behavior. Continuous reinforcement is the fastest way to increase behavior, but once reward ceases, the behavior stops. Random intermittent reinforcement increases behavior more slowly but with a longer-lasting effect. (randomly giving a reward)

Barriers to successful community reintegration

Poverty Homelessness Substance use Violence Victimization, rape, trauma Self-harm Persons with mental illness are more likely to be victims of violence, both in prisons & the community.

Stages of group development

Pregroup stage - members selected, purpose identified, group structure addressed (how often & where group will meet, leader selected, rules discussed). Beginning or initial stage - introductions, purpose, rules, & expectations reviewed, members "check out" others as they determine level of comfort in group setting. Working stage - focus on purpose, trust develops, cohesiveness, competition between members. Termination - work of group reviewed, focus is on accomplishments or growth

Community mental health treatment

Primary mode of treatment Clients continue to work and are able to stay connected with family, friends, and other support systems. Personality or behavior patterns gradually develop; unable to be changed in a relatively short inpatient course of treatment Peer counseling, advocacy, and mentoring are showing positive results.

Working Phase (sub categories) - exploitation

Problem identification: issues or concerns identified by client; examination of client's feelings and responses. Exploitation: examination of feelings and responses; development of better coping skills, more positive self-image, behavior change, independence. Possible transference/countertransference.

Communication

Process to exchange of information. Messages are simultaneously sent & received on two levels

Advanced-level functions (of practice)

Psychotherapy Prescriptive authority for drugs Consultation, liaison Evaluation

Social (types of relationships)

Purpose of friendship, socialization, companionship, or task accomplishment. Superficial communication; shifting roles; outcomes rarely assessed.

Empathy

Putting oneself in client's shoes. Client and nurse giving "gift of self" when empathy occurs - the client by feeling safe enough to share feelings & the nurse by listening and demonstrating understanding. Different from sympathy (feelings of concern or compassion; can shift the focus to the nurse's feelings).

inpatient hospital treatment

Rapid assessment & stabilization of symptoms. Discharge planning Client-centered multidisciplinary approach to brief stay is essential. Typically locked units - provide protection from outer world Safe/secure setting (advantage) Clients feel confined or dependent - emphasizes staff's power over them (disadvantage).

Sigmund Freud Theory

Repressed sexual impulses and desires as motivation for behavior.

Psychiatric Rehabilitation

Services to patients with persistent, severe mental illness in the community. Also known as community support services or programs. Focus on patient's strengths. Programs designed to help client manage illness & symptoms, gain access to needed services, & live successfully in the community. Activities involving medication management, transportation, shopping, food preparation, hygiene, finances, social support, vocational referral.

Psychosocial Rehabilitation

Empowerment, increased independence. Improved quality of life. Characteristics of Later Stages Accepting illness Self-love Gaining control over symptoms

long stay clients

Severe, persistent mental illness requiring acute care services. Unsuccessful community placement. Client's with dual diagnosis - mental illness + substance abuse OR mental illness + developmental/intellectual diagnosis.

Ancient times mental illness theory

Sickness as displeasure of gods Punishment for sins; viewed as demonic (ostracized/burned at stake) or divine (worshipped/adored).

Sullivan's main work

Significance of interpersonal relationships - goal of treatment Therapeutic milieu or community (role of client-to-client interaction

Freudian slip

Slips are not accidental - indications of subconscious thoughts, feelings.

Students and Active listening & observation

Students often make mistake of constantly thinking ahead regarding the next question rather than actively listening to what client is saying. Results in a lack of understanding about the client's concern & conversation is vague, superficial, & frustrating to both parties.

DSM-5

Taxonomy published by the American Psychiatric Association It describes all mental disorders, outlining specific diagnostic criteria for each based on clinical experience/research.

Therapeutic Roles of the Nurse in a Relationship

Teacher (coping, problem solving, medication regimen, community resources). Caregiver (therapeutic relationship, physical care). Advocate (ensuring privacy and dignity, informed consent, access to services, safety from abuse and exploitation). Parent surrogate Methods to avoid inappropriate relationships between nurses and clients

Therapeutic Relationship

The ability to build therapeutic relationships is one of the most important skills a nurse can develop. Crucial to success of interventions with clients requiring psychiatric care. Therapeutic relationship + communication within it serve as underpinning for treatment & success.

Active Military & Veterans

The prevalence of PTSD and major depression is greater than their civilian counterparts. Increased rates of: Suicide Homicide Injury Physical illness Sleep disorders Substance abuse Marital and family dysfunction Prevalence of PTSD & major depression is greater among active duty military service members than civilians. Increased rate of suicide (2 times greater). Sleep disorders & substance abuse common. 3 or more deployments is risk factor for mental illness. Sexual traumas widespread for both males and females. Reluctance to seek treatment because: Treatment may not be readily available. Stigma of mental illness.

Prisoners

The rate of mental illness among the incarcerated is 5 times higher than the general population. Factors for placement in criminal justice system Deinstitutionalization More rigid criteria for civil commitment Lack of adequate community support Economization of treatment for mental illness Attitudes of police, society

Carl Rogers Client-centered therapy

Therapist takes a person centered approach & supportive role: Unconditional positive regard -demonstrate nonjudgmental caring to client. Genuineness - realness/congruence between what therapist believes and says. Empathetic understanding - therapist senses feelings/personal meaning from client & communicates it back to client.

Therapeutic Use of Self (and theorist)

Through self-awareness the nurse can use aspects of his/her personality, experiences, values, feelings, intelligence, needs, coping skills, perceptions to establish relationships beneficial to clients. Concept developed by H. Peplau Therapeutic use of self - nurses must understand themselves to promote growth& avoid limiting client's choices to those valued by the nurse.

DSM-5 three purposes

To provide a standardized nomenclature, language for mental health professionals. To present/identify defining characteristics or symptoms that differentiate specific diagnoses. To assist in identifying underlying causes of disorders.

Interpretation of signals or cues

To understand what a client means, the nurse watches & listens closely for cues - verbal or nonverbal messages that signal key words or issues for the client

Values/values clarification (choosing, prizing, acting)

Values (sense of right and wrong, code of conduct for living) Gain insight through clarification process: Values clarification Choosing - consider options & choose value that feels right. Prizing - cherishes value & attaches it to him/her self. Acting - put value into action.

Nonverbal Communication Skills cont.

Vocal cues - nonverbal sound signals transmitted alongwith content (i.e. voice volume, tone, pitch, intensity, pauses that augment sender's message). Eye contact - used to assess the other person, environment (increases during listening, decreases during speaking). Silence - long pauses in communication (may indicate person is thoughtfully considering question before responding).
