Using the information from the assigned reading, respond to the questions below.Explain the basic role of case managers in addiction treatment settings.Provide at least two examples with explanation of case management needs of clients in each level of care: outpatient, intensive outpatient, and residential (in-patient) care.Considering what you have learned, read the following scenario and respond to the questions below.Scenario: KeishaKeisha is a 34-year-old, African American female client who is in an intensive outpatient addiction program. She has three children who are in her mother’s care until she can complete addiction treatment and probation. She is halfway through her treatment program and has been working with her case manager for two months to establish a safe place to live and a job once she finishes treatment. Currently, she has no car or valid driver’s license. Further, her only work history consists of illegal activities. She is nervous about leaving treatment, but excited to regain custody of her children. Despite working with her case manager for two months, Keisha has not worked on her case management goals to develop a plan for when she leaves treatment. Her case manager cannot seem to motivate her as she continually expresses concern for her parenting skills, her ability to find and keep a job, and her lack of confidence in her ability to maintain sobriety.Using the Keisha scenario, explain how principles of culture competence might help to motivate her. How can the case manager develop a better understanding of Keisha by understanding her cultural context?What strategy could the case manager use to prevent Keisha from becoming too reliant on the case manager (address boundary setting strategies)?Textbook-Summers, N.

Week 2: The Clinical Issue and Research Questions Developed Using PICOTPICOT is an acronym used to help develop clinical research questions and guide you in your search for evidence:P = Patient populationI = Intervention or issue of interestC = Comparison of interventions or comparison of interestsO = OutcomeT = Time frameFor example, you may wish to research the effects of interrupted sleep on cognition of ICU patients 65 or older.Using this PICOT model,In _________(P), how does __________ (I) compared to _________ (C) influence _________ (O) over ________ (T)?In ICU patients who are 65 or older, how does interrupted sleep (awakened one time or more in four hours) as compared to uninterrupted sleep influence the patient’s cognitive ability over 5 days?Assignment DirectionsBegin by selecting

Psychologists have discovered that human beings experience several different states of consciousness during the course of a day. For example, people have times when they are especially alert and times when they are awake but not alert, often called "daydreaming." Also, while people are asleep, they experience different stages of sleep, each characterized by different patterns of brain and bodily activity. In a multi-paragraph essay, discuss the different states of consciousness that you have experienced in the past 24 hours, including any periods when you were asleep, alert, or "daydreaming." Be sure to describe both the brain and bodily activity you experienced during each state of consciousness. Include information from class materials, readings, and research on states of consciousness to support your discussion.
