The Client
24-year-old white male self-admitted as an inpatient due to fear of hurting others. Patient is from out of town, currently attending military drills. Patient found out that his significant other he was planning on proposing to has be actively having relations with his step-brother. Patient has a history of fits of rage at a young age that caused hospitalizations of others so he felt it was best he received help before doing harm to others. Patient has no other psychiatric history, no suicidal ideations, not hearing voices or seeing things that are not present, he does not believe others are out to do harm to him. Patient states that no one in his immediate family has history of psychiatric conditions. Patient does report physical and verbal abuse from step-father as a young child. During his teenage years patient was addicted to illicit drugs and alcohol.
Diagnosis
According to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Health Disorders, 5th edition (DSM-5), the patient presents with characteristics of PTSD. The patient exhibits “irritable behavior and angry outbursts (with little or no provocation) typically expressed as verbal or physical aggression, reckless or self-destructive behavior, exaggerated startle response, problems with concentration and sleep disturbance lasting since his early teen years” (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
Patient states he has difficulty trusting others, assures his back is always to a wall, is easily agitated and tends to frequently relay his anger verbally, was once addicted to illicit drugs to cope with the stress in is life, has difficulty concentrating on simple tasks and must keep himself busy at all time, also states he sleeps very little.
 
Legal and Ethical Implications
Special concerns with this patient were voiced because of his current non-active role in the military. The patient came from training drills to seek help for his anger. The military has certain requirements for the patient to be able to safely return to drills. Ethically it is important to ensure the patient’s safety first and assess his intent to do harm to others. In the case of this patient, he was kept for observation for three days before being allowed discharge although the patient was addiment that he just needed a safe place for one night and that he did not feel the need to do harm to himself or others. The case can be made that individuals with military training, combat exposure, and ensuing PTSD may find it even more difficult to engage in an accurate appraisal of danger. Training for combat increases reliance on muscle memory or automatic actions in times of perceived threat, training that was provided initially by the military to help soldiers stay alive. But the physiological sensitivity that results from a chronically disordered pattern of arousal as is found in PTSD can set the stage for a quicksilver reactivity that leads to actions in a civilian setting that have criminal justice implications (Tramontin, 2010).

Demographics Information:

The client is 18-year-old black male, living with the parents in Smithfield, NC. He speaks English as his first language and attends high. His family is a middle-class family, with the parents working in white-collar jobs in various different organizations in Raleigh, NC. The client is covered by the health insurance of the parents, in which they are subscribed to Blue Cross Blueshield.

Presenting Problem:

The client described himself as being easily aggravated by small things and has a short temper. The teacher of the client, commented that the client was frequently involved in fights during the school times. The mother of the client also mentioned that the child sometimes refuses to act on her requests, such as doing house chores and constantly bullies her small sister and brother.

History of Present Illness:

The client mainly comes to the clinic, with the parents, with regards to the above problems. The main concerns of his parents, is the behavior of the client while at home, and the various complaints by the teachers and the disciplinary board in the school, about his aggressive behavior. The parents are also concerned about the poor academic performance of their child. The parents of the client, have reported for about over a year, the client has constantly been bullying his siblings, and sometimes even fighting them. The client has also, on several occasions, ignored request from the parents, to wash his clothes or perform other common house chores. The parents admit that even they noticed the behavior as early as when he was aged 7, they initially brushed it off, and though that he would grow out of it, and learn to live in harmony, with the friends or siblings. When he reached adolescence, the parents thought the behavior was largely a characteristic of people reaching this stage of life. As such, the thought that the problem will slowly go away as he matured.

The report from the school is very similar to the report offered by the parents. At school, the client is describing as being troublesome, with little regards to following orders or school rules. On the other hand, the client has been easily irritable and gets into fights easily. On several occasions, the child has been transferred to other schools, as well as getting suspended, due to the problem of following rules and not heeding to authorities. In one instance, the client has been accused of causing major physical harm to some of his classmates, in one of his fights. The teachers describe that his irritability, make him to have little concentration in class, which further makes him to perform poorly in school work. The poor performance in school is majorly attributed to his behavior, which makes him to have trouble concentrating in class or undertaking any activities, especially those that require the formation of groups, due to the fact that he has trouble forging good relationships with others.

Past Psychiatric History:

From the accounts of the parents, the client does not have incidents, relating to visits to the psychiatrists. Furthermore, the patient has never been hospitalized, due to mental illness or disorders. However, he was taken as outpatient at the age 12, in a psychiatric clinic. In this, the teachers noted how he had difficulties in forging peaceful relationships with other students, as well as disobeying some of the school rules and people in authority. The client was reported to be easily irritable and as such, engage in arguments or fights, with anyone, regardless of the age or authority. On the other, while at home, the client would easily get into fights and quarrels with his siblings, regardless of the issue at hand. Furthermore, the client was noted to result fighting as the only method of resolving conflicts. The parents also noted that the client would at times ignore their calls or requests and orders. His bedroom was highly unorganized, with little attention given to tidiness, which was part of his chores in the house.

At the time the client was brought to the office by the parents, he was evaluated, but there was no official diagnosis given to him or the parents. As a result of this, the provider mainly referred him to undertake a family therapy or psychoeducation. The intervention was highly successful as the parents were able to have some little information, on what was the problem with their child. Furthermore, through the family therapy and psychoeducation, it was noted that there was some significant improvement in the behavior of the child, both at school and home, until the current episode, which necessitated the parents to bring him to the clinic.

As a result of the condition, there was really no need for the psychoactive or stimulant medication as some of the pharmacological intervention to the problem facing the client, owing to the main reason that the psychotherapy, mainly seemed to be effective. However, it should be noted that there is no a one-size-fits-all treatment option, for the children as well as the teenagers that suffer from ODD. Despite all this, the most effective treatment plan for the disorder, are mainly tailored towards the behavioral symptoms as well as the needs of the client. It should also be noted that some of the treatment options are majorly determined, based on a number of different things.

These include the age of the client, the nature and severity of the behaviors and whether the client has another mental health condition, which exists at the moment. Due to the nature of the behavior of the child, as it touched on both school and home life, it was largely agreed that he be enrolled in a social skills programs as well as some school based programs. These programs mainly teach the adolescents as well as the children, how to relate positively with other peers and also help them improve they’re on their school studies. Furthermore, the therapy is usually considered to be very successful, especially when done in a natural environment.

Medical History:

At the time of the presentation, the client had no fever. He was weighing 165lbs, with a height of 6 ft. and 3 inches. His BMI index, was thus 21.18. From the BMI, it is seen that the client is healthy, as it falls within the acceptable range of 17.1 to 24.2 for this age, weight and height. The client has no known allergies, to any drugs or food. Furthermore, there is no history of head or head or trauma injuries, which have led to the loss of consciousness. Furthermore, the client has no major physical injuries, except for scars on his face, which are majorly attributed to the fights that he has engaged in, while at school and at home.

Developmental History:

Developmental Stages: The mother acknowledged that she had some good prenatal, while pregnant with the client. The mother admitted that she always took care of herself and watched her nutrition as well as exercise, while she was pregnant. However, the mother admitted that it was a stressful period, owing to the fact that they were jobless and had little money to support themselves. It should be noted that stress and anxiety, especially in pregnant women, increase the chances and risks of the infants, to develop ADHD and ODD, as well as other complications (Burke & Loeber, 2010). From various literatures, one of the factors that increase the risk of getting ODD is the participation of smoking during pregnancy. However, the mother denied engaging in any substance abuse, during the pregnancy (Sadock, Saddock, & Ruiz, 2015).

Developmental Milestones in Toddlers

The mother stated that the client started walking when he was about 20 months old. Furthermore, in most her visits to the doctors, the client was never diagnosed with having some problems with his cognitive development. The mother stated that he grew up normally, just like his siblings. The mother also acknowledged that the client started uttering words when he was 2-years-old. He also started his toilet training at the age of 3, and before the end of the pre-school period, the client had gained perfect control of his bowel. The cognitive abilities of the client were also well developed during this period.

The client denied ever engaging in substance abuse. Furthermore, the parents also admitted that they had never smoked but occasional ingested alcohol.

Psychosocial History:

One of the main things that is very relevant to the clinicians, in planning for the treatment of their clients, is the social and personal history of the client (Sadock, Sadock, & Ruiz, 2015). The client is current in his 12th grade, however, he is not behaving like normal teenagers of his age. The client does not have romantic relationships, but likes to play football. The client is the first born in a family of three. His siblings are twin girls, who are in their 7th grade. The family has never separated, and the client has lived with his parents the entire time.

On the other hand, the client has been suspended and transferred to other schools, due to various disciplinary problems. He has been described as being short-tempered and high-headed, as he rarely follows instructions. He frequently engages in arguments as well as fights with most people that he disagrees with on some issues. The client comes from a middle-class family, which is able to provide most of his necessities.

Review of System & Assessment

ROS

The Review of the system, is very critical in the coming up with a treatment plan, as it helps to determine the complications that could result from treatment, which can further have negative effects to the client during treatment (Wheeler, 2014).

Assessment tools:

Differential Diagnoses (Diff. Dx.):

The differential diagnosis must be ruled out for a client to get proper treatment and better outcome of care. So, clinicians must be versatile to the condition that may present as the actual diagnosis but are not (Carlat, 2017). For this case study, the DSM-V has the following differential diagnosis for a client for an eventual diagnosis of ODD.

1. Oppositional Defiant Disorder (ODD). ODD is different from ADHD in that children with ODD are more or resisting order or instruction from higher authority in the form of negativity, defiance, and hostile as against a child with ADHD who action is characterized behaviorally as being inattentive, hyperactive and impulsive. Therefore, since this boy did not present with the symptoms of being hyperactive, inattentive and impulsive, ADHD as a possible diagnosis is eliminated (APA, 2013).

DSM-V Diagnosis:

Oppositional Defiant Disorder

Case Formulation:

In school, teachers have always described the client as being difficult to work with others and cannot join group works effectively. Teachers have also said that he completely disregards and flaunts various school rules. He also ignores orders from authority. At home, the parents claim that he bullies his younger siblings and even beats them up, whenever an adult is absent. Furthermore, the parents claim that the client sometimes disregards the rules or requests.

Treatment Plan:

The client being a 18-year-old, with ODD, will need the cooperation of both the teachers and the parent, as part of the treatment plan. The parents will be enrolled to a family therapy, which will teach them how to manage the behavior of their child. On the other hand, the client will be enrolled in a social skills program that is school based, to ensure that he learns appropriate socialization skills with the teachers. Since the client does not posses’ severe symptoms of the disorder, no medical intervention will be needed.

Medication/medication adjustment:

Medical intervention will not be needed.

Assessment Tools with Rationale:

For the condition, the assessment tool that was used was the Diagnostic Interview Schedule for Children. According to Galanter and Jensen (2009), parts of the questionnaires can be very helpful in determining the extent of the problems caused by ODD. From the assessment, the information from the patient, corroborated with the manual for the questionnaire.

Referrals and Rationale:

The patient will return to the clinic after two weeks, to check on his progress and response to the therapy.

Therapy with Rationale:

Since the problem is prevalent at both school and home, the family and the teachers at school, will be collectively needed to be approached in the therapy options of the client

Legal Issues:

The parents gave consent for the treatment

Patient Education:

The ODD is one of the mental disorders that is commonly diagnosed in the school going children. The disorder mainly occurs to about 2% to 16% of the entire population in U.S. Some of the common symptoms of the disorder include being short tempered, arguing with adults and easily irritable.

Nursing and Counseling theories are designed to guide the practices in psychotherapies. Nurse psychotherapist provides biopsychosocial integrative and holistic care. The therapist uses psychotherapy or counseling in resolving behavior problem, feeling, beliefs, relationship problems, and sensations in the body. There several types of counseling used in unique or in combination with others depending on the individual issues of the patient. Example Journal Entry – Practicum Experience Time Log and Journal Template.
Cognitive behavioral therapy(CBT) is holistic, creative and individualist. It assists the patient to change the unhealthy behavior that is affecting them by using the following functional assessment known as the stimulus, organism, response, and consequences. The goal of CBT is focusing on the immediate patient problem and how to make changes that will increase their engagement in positive or socially supporting activities.
Sister Callister Roy theory is about understanding person, health, environments, and nursing. Roy views a person as an adaptation system and is interested in promoting their adaptation. A person is a view as a bio-psycho-social being in continuous interaction with a changing environment. A person uses acquired mechanism and innate to adapt which involving individual, family, organizations or communities or society. According to Roy Adaptation model (RAM), health is a predictable dimension of someone life which is characterized by a health-illness continuum.
CBT and RAM are interactionism. The clinician elicits/prompts information from the patient. The patient is involved in decision making and goal settings, narrates the results of the assessment to the presenting symptoms and plan strategies with the help of the patient in improving their adaptation to stimuli. The aim is that the behavior will be focused and lead to adaptation combining with the actual planning and implementation. The presenting symptoms are evaluated based on the patient level of adaptation level. These helps in determining the level of adaptation and assess progress during the therapy progress.
My role as a Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse practitioner is to set and establish goals that are attainable, reasonable and measurable with the patient and act as a guide through the process, assisting with requiring skill training and design suitable experiments with high possibility of success.
My goal is to work with individuals, groups, families, and communities to assess their mental health needs, develop diagnoses based on their presenting symptom and plan, implement and evaluate their care. My intervention will include prevention interventions, health promotion, health maintenance, assessment, evaluation, maintain a therapeutic environment. Provide aid with self-care activities, monitor and administer psychobiological treatment regimens, counseling, and crisis intervention Example J
