Psychological evaluation

I met with Ms. McGuvyer (Ms. M) on 10/10/2016 for a psychological evaluation. Ms. M was informed that the purpose of the psychological evaluation was to assess her emotional and psychological functioning. She was informed of the limits of confidentiality, including the examiner’s mandated reporting responsibilities, regarding the disclosure of potentially harming himself or others, and child or vulnerable adult abuse. She was made aware that the information gathered during the evaluation was confidential and would not be disclosed without her consent. Ms. M was made aware that if she wanted a copy of her evaluation sent to her primary care physician (PCP) Dr. Ino Lotts, then she would be required to provide written consent, limits of confidentiality and release of information. REASON FOR REFERRAL Ms. M was referred by her PCP, Dr. Ino Lotts, for a…

and policies between the United States and Japan. Thomas Hobbes vision of the “social contract” implies the transference of individual rights to the state in order to ensure a peaceful and safe community. (Thomas Hobbes: social contract, 2002) One of those rights transferred is the right to privacy as citizens who complete and are approved for gun ownership must surrender their mental evaluation to the local police department. In order to own a gun, Japanese citizens are willing to offer up…

would be unable to complete any new evaluations at that time. Many teachers in the school district were upset because they had waited to make special education referrals after they had attempted other interventions to ensure that special education was a last resort. The students that were wanting to referral struggled in school and it was upsetting that they would be unable to receive the special education services they need until nearly one-third…

assessment became our top choice because it is very easy to score. The possible scores, according to the evaluation tool, can range from 1-27. At the lower scale of severity, a person who may be suffering from depression may score between 1-4. The score for mild depression falls between 5-9, moderate between 10-14, moderately severe between 15-19 and severe depression is characterized by a score between 20-27. Furthermore, the selection of this assessment tool, as our number one choice, fell…

environment and identifying problems, nurse leaders must identify the expected outcomes relevant to the plan of action. It is not enough to identify that the unit fall rate is high and that the fall prevention program requires an over hall. Nurse leaders must identify specifically what the new fall prevention program aims to accomplish. Ideally, the program would reduce unit fall rates but by how much? It is a nurse leaders responsibility to identify program outcomes that are clear, specific,…

Suicide Risk Assessment in Adolescence: Evaluation of Two Methods Suicide is a major problem in adolescent populations across the world. According to Boege, Corpus, Schepker, and Fegert (2014), suicide is the second to third leading cause of death among those aged 15 to 17 (p.1). As it is such pervasive and deadly problem and because youth have unique perspectives, valid assessment of suicidal risk is a crucial aspect of adolescent psychiatry. Overview of Two Methods of Assessment There are…

Of course, summative evaluation can also be embedded into the game. Solve a 4x4 matrix to kill the Demogorgon. It personal, an instructor or if money permits, hey we got money use an AI to determine the next challenge the student needs to encounter. Allow me to clarify one point. Many people believe that students are going to sitting in front of a computer for hours and hours playing games and learning a topic. I do not see this to be the case, in almost any situation. Serious games are going…

All three students have strengths in being very observant in class. This notifies me that I need to engage the class is a discussion. A debate or Socratic seminar might work best for this class and especially these three students because of how vocal they are. However, their weaknesses and the ways in which these three learn are very different. I would never be able to pair Aiden and Logan because Aiden is dependent on another person, and Logan is independent and works best by working alone.…

Section 4: Differentiating Instruction through Technology When considering the importance of a student-centered classroom an educator must remember that “it is not about what the teacher is doing or what the teacher has done; it’s about what the students are doing and what the students can do in the future”. (Tarte, 2013) Education within school has certainly changed quickly these days. The way an educator once believed that students should be sitting quietly as the teacher stood up in front of…
