...MARIA’S ASSESSMENT 1 Maria’s Assessment Ethical or Multicultural Assessment Errors Introduction Please include an introduction to describe for the reader what you will be including in your paper. It is a great way to outline the key requirements and expectations for the assignment. In scholarly writing it is important to include the introduction to provide the reader with a lens for understanding what will be presented in your application paper. The three errors the teacher made with Maria was electing to conduct no informal or formal assessment, opting to conduct assessments in English only, and not taking into consideration the environmental and cultural difference (e.g. worldview) hindering Maria’s emotional and academic development. According to Whiston (2013, pg. 323), “Knowledge of using appropriate appraisal techniques with diverse population is crucial,” the teacher’s inability to do so indicates restricted and potentially unsuitable methods and actions in acknowledging Maria’s culture (e.g. worldview) and the significance it plays in her education and emotional anxiety at school. Counselor’s Perspective on Errors The practice of assessment entails the collection of information in order to analyze, identify, evaluate, and address the issues, difficulties, and circumstances of the client in the counseling relationship. Not assessing a client either by informal, formal, or both types of assessments leaves...

...Running Head: Dementia in older adults The issue of dementia in older populations is a very prevalent and growing issue. Memory loss and dementia are increasingly prevalent issues that affect older adults and their spouses (McClive-Reed 2010). Due to the fear that surrounds dementia in older patients, a prognosis could lead to a diminished sense of self and reduction in the quality of life, not just for said patient but also for the families or caregivers. In order to better understand dementia and those who suffer from it, let’s look at potential strategies and challenges to engage dementia clients, how to conduct a biopsychosocial assessment of dementia clients, and take ethical consideration into account in respect to a single client that I have chosen, EP. EP is a sixty-nine year old African American female who was previously diagnosed with dementia as well as depression. I met EP after she was admitted to the short-term involuntary psych unit at the hospital to which I am employed as a mental health associate, making me one of her immediate caregivers. She was admitted after proving to be a danger to herself during screening, where it became known that the patient stopped taking appropriate dosages of her medication and became unable to appropriately care for herself as a result. When EP is doing well with her medications, she is able to live a very independent and healthy lifestyle, but this lasts only temporarily as this is not the first time that she has been...

...People become carers for different reasons. No two caring situations are the same. Carers are from diversity and circumstances. There is no rules about who can become a carer nor about what a carer is expected to do. There is no rule for an appropriate age of the carer. Carers don't chose to become carers it just happens and they have to get on with it. The role of carer range from helping with domestic duties, shopping assistance, paying bills at Australia Post to more complex duties such as helping with personal care for client who is hoisted or assisting client with daily bowel care program. The variety of the job and associated responsibilities are wide, everyday is different. In summary, carers play a vital role in our community, and we- people should get to know more about them as well as show appreciation if possible as they really deserve it. 2. Identify available resources for Carers in Australia – Include a copy of the resource with your assessment. Some of resources that are available for carers in Australia: - Carers Australia website (http://www.carersaustralia.com.au/home/)- outline of national advocacy and national programs available for carers to reduce their stress, improve their skills and help with any concerns they might have. -...

...Unit 18 1.1 Assessments are used to find out the beliefs, preferences and needs of the client. This enables us to meet their needs and promote their aims and objectives. A pre-admission assessment is carried out to ensure that we can meet their needs within the home, once admitted this is then extended to look at all aspects of the client’s needs and to develop a support plan. The assessments are all about the person and reflect their needs and wants and are user led.
