Mr. Staritt articulated that stability for foster children is paramount and the Li children informed him that they were happy and contempt with Ms. Bayron after he met with the children in June of 2015.…

    First, the case worker should have coordinated preliminary treatment plans for the initial stages of Gabriel’s placements. Here, the worker should have referred foster parents to speak with specialists or attend educational/informational classes on caring for children with unique social, cultural, and behavioral barriers. A class such as this would have been geared toward educating foster parents on identifying common behavioral disturbances, how to respond to future issues, and, importantly, warning signs of suicidal ideations. Plans set forth by the case worker should have also included family therapy sessions to better prepare Gabriel and his foster parents for their transitions in living situation. Next, the case worker should have worked together with the foster parents in collectively coordinating a step-by-step ongoing treatment plan to aid in Gabriel’s recovery, including continued family therapy sessions and weekly reports from the foster parents updating the case worker on Gabriel’s progress, changes in behavior, and/or any concerns that may have arisen.…

    The social worker decided to use Christine’s behavioral incident reports as a way to evaluate her intervention in an A-B single subject research design. The social worker believed using the incident reports would reduce bias in the evaluation because it was a method the foster parents were accustomed to using. The social worker also chose to not tell Christine about the evaluation, because she wanted the intervention to be the only thing that influenced Christine’s behavior. The behavioral incident reports used in the single subject research design were the ones that pertained to Christine not following the house rules, making impulsive decisions, and having poor boundaries with male peers. The social worker established a baseline by examining…

    At an organization that places children in foster care, extra support is provided in a variety of ways to the foster families. One of these ways includes the services of an in-office counselor. The counselor at the facility is to remain flexible when a family is grieving or going through a difficult time, being on call at all times to meet with the parents or children of the foster home within a 50-mile radius of the facility.

However, the in-office counselor and caseworker for the mother’s foster children began to worry that she was not allowing enough time for herself to relax, be encouraged, and find something to do other than watch spending 24/7 with children who were not her own.…

    Dialectical Behavior Therapy, or DBT, was developed in 1993 by Marsha M. Linehan as a treatment for clients meeting the criteria for borderline personality disorder who are chronically suicidal (Linehan and Chen, 2004). Linehan developed this therapy out of the sentiment that there was an influx in borderline personality disorder diagnoses, and no successful treatment options specific to this diagnosis (Linehan, 1993). Linehan was influenced by behavior therapy and by Eastern mindfulness. The theory assumes that the DBT clinician is at a certain level of acceptance towards their client’s current distress (Linehan and Chen, 2004).…
