Thanks for stopping by this assessment. We can assist you in completing it and other subsequent ones. Our expert writers will comprehensively review instructions, synthesize external evidence sources, and customize an A-grade paper for YOU!!!

INTRODUCTION

At your practicum site, you have been strengthening your communication, assessment, diagnostic reasoning, and treatment planning skills. This week, you highlight these skills as you conference with your peers in a Grand Rounds Discussion. You also continue to track your clinical time and patients in Meditrek.

Your readings this week support your understanding of prescribing for two special populations: older adults and pregnant women. Like prescribing for children and adolescents, which you explored in an earlier course, psychopharmacological treatments for these groups must often involve assessments of risks and benefits based on best available knowledge from the literature.

LEARNING OBJECTIVES

Students will:

Describe clinical hours and patient encounters

Assess and diagnose patients in mental health settings*

Develop plans of care for patients in mental health settings*

Develop a case study presentation based on a clinical patient*

Analyze cases involving advanced practice care of patients in mental health settings

Advocate health promotion and patient education strategies across the lifespan

*This week’s presenters only

What do I have to do? When do I have to do it?

Review your Learning Resources.

Days 1–7

Grand Rounds Discussion: Complex Case Study Presentation

Presenters post their videos by Day 3. Participants continue the discussion through Day 7.
Assignment: Clinical Hour and Patient Logs Record your clinical hours and patient encounters in Meditrek.

his is a graded discussion: 100 points possible

COMPLEX CASE STUDY PRESENTATION

This week you participate in the final of three clinical discussions called grand rounds. When it is your week to present, you will create a focused SOAP note and a short didactic (teaching) video presenting a real (but de-identified) complex patient case from your practicum experience.

You should have received an assignment from your Instructor letting you know which week of the course you are assigned to present. Any student who has not yet presented should present this week.

RESOURCES

Be sure to review the Learning Resources before completing this activity.

WEEKLY RESOURCES

TO PREPARE:

Review this week’s Learning Resources and consider the insights they provide. Also review the Kaltura Media Uploader resource in the left-hand navigation of the classroom for help creating your self-recorded Kaltura video.

Select an older adult patient from your clinical experience that presents with a significant concern. Create a focused SOAP note for this patient using the template in the Resources. All SOAP notes must be signed by your Preceptor. When you submit your SOAP note, you should include the complete SOAP note as a Word document and PDF/images of the completed assignment signed by your Preceptor. You must submit your SOAP note using Turnitin.

Please Note: Electronic signatures are not accepted. If both files are not received by the due date, Faculty will deduct points per the Walden Late Policies.

Then, based on your SOAP note of this patient, develop a video case study presentation. Set aside time to practice what you will say beforehand and ensure that you have the appropriate lighting and equipment to record the presentation.

Your presentation should include objectives for your audience, at least 3 possible discussion questions/prompts for your classmates to respond to, and at least 5 scholarly resources to support your diagnostic reasoning and treatment plan.

Video assignment for this week’s presenters:

Record yourself presenting the complex case study for your clinical patient. In your presentation:

Dress professionally and present yourself in a professional manner.

Display your photo ID at the start of the video when you introduce yourself.

Ensure that you do not include any information that violates the principles of HIPAA (i.e., don’t use the patient’s name or any other identifying information).

State 3–4 objectives for the presentation that are targeted, clear, use appropriate verbs from Bloom’s taxonomy, and address what the audience will know or be able to do after viewing.

Present the full complex case study. Include chief complaint; history of present illness; any pertinent past psychiatric, substance use, medical, social, family history; most recent mental status exam; current psychiatric diagnosis including differentials that were ruled out; and plan for treatment and management.

Report normal diagnostic results as the name of the test and “normal” (rather than specific value). Abnormal results should be reported as a specific value.

Pose three questions or discussion prompts, based on your presentation, that your colleagues can respond to after viewing your video.

Be succinct in your presentation, and do not exceed 8 minutes. Specifically address the following for the patient, using your SOAP note as a guide.

Subjective: What details did the patient provide regarding their chief complaint and symptomology to derive your differential diagnosis? What is the duration and severity of their symptoms? How are their symptoms impacting their functioning in life?

Objective: What observations did you make during the psychiatric assessment?

Assessment: Discuss their mental status examination results. What were your differential diagnoses? Provide a minimum of three possible diagnoses and why you chose them. List them from highest priority to lowest priority. What was your primary diagnosis, and why? Describe how your primary diagnosis aligns with DSM-5-TR diagnostic criteria and is supported by the patient’s symptoms.

Plan: What was your plan for psychotherapy (include one health promotion activity and patient education)? What was your plan for treatment and management, including alternative therapies? Include pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic treatments, alternative therapies, and follow-up parameters, as well as a rationale for this treatment and management plan. Discuss an identified social determinate of health impacting this patient’s mental health status and provide your recommendation for a referral to assist this patient in meeting this identified need (students will need to conduct research on this topic both in the literature and for community resources).

Reflection notes: What would you do differently with this patient if you could conduct the session again? If you are able to follow up with your patient, explain whether these interventions were successful and why or why not. If you were not able to conduct a follow-up, discuss what your next intervention would be.

A note on grading:

Presenters: Review the Grand Rounds Presenter Rubric attached to this discussion to ensure you meet the scoring criteria.

Participants: Review the Grand Rounds Participant Rubric located on the following Week 9 Assignment 1 page to ensure you meet the scoring criteria. Note the Week 9 Assignment 1 page is for viewing the participant rubric only. Your response should be posted in the forum of this page.

WEEK 9 PRESENTERS:

BY DAY 3

Post your video and your focused SOAP note to the Grand Rounds Discussion forum. You must submit two files for the SOAP note, including a Word document and scanned PDF/images of completed assignment signed by your Preceptor. Then, actively respond to and guide the conversation as your colleagues post responses to your video.

WEEK 9 PARTICIPANTS:

BY MULTIPLE DAYS BETWEEN DAYS 4 AND 7

Respond at least 2 times each to all colleagues who presented this week (should be 2-3 presenters each week). The goal is for the discussion forum to function as robust clinical conferences on the patients. Provide a response to 1 of the 3 discussion prompts that your colleagues provided in their video presentations. You may also provide additional information, alternative points of view, research to support treatment, or patient education strategies you might use with the relevant patient.

GRAND ROUNDS PRESENTER SCHEDULE

I have sent this out via email through Canvas but wanted to post in several places for ease of viewing.

Hi All!

I have assigned each of you to present on specific weeks for Grand Rounds as follows:

Week 4 Grand Rounds presenters:

– Oladeji Ajani

Brigitte Michelle Boll

Susan Floyd Elium

Week 7 Grand Rounds presenters:

Danny Farr

Agnes Chioma Obi

Claudette Ponton

Week 9 Grand Rounds presenters:

Basirat Shomuyiwa

Allison R Wilson

A FEW CLARIFICATIONS ABOUT THIS:

– You will be submitting your presentations (and required components) to Grand Rounds ONLY WHEN YOU ARE ASSIGNED TO PRESENT (as noted in above list).

– The other Grand Rounds weeks- in which you do not present- you will just need to do the appropriate responses to the Grand Rounds participants, as per the discussion board participant rubric

THE WEEK THAT YOU PRESENT:

Follow the Grand Rounds Presentation Rubric on the week you are assigned to present. PLEASE FOLLOW THE RUBRIC CLOSELY (I grade STRICTLY by the rubric). The rubric for the grand rounds presenters are located under the appropriate week under DISCUSSIONS: WEEK X DISCUSSIONS: 3 DOTS IN UPPER RIGHT CORNER: SHOW RUBRIC.

The only part of the rubric that I will show ‘wiggle room’ with grading is the wearing the white lab coat. If you have a lab coat, please wear it. If you do not have a lab coat, , please be dressed professionally and you must show your ID (as per rubric).

THE DISCUSSION WEEKS IN WHICH YOU ARE NOT PRESENTING AND PARTICIPATING ONLY-

Please follow the rubric closely. To receive full credit as a participant: you must respond at least TWICE to EACH colleague who presented this week. Responses are carried out over multiple days between Days 4 and 7 – with credible sources cited and referenced appropriately.

On the Grand Rounds weeks that you are not presenting, you only need to respond to the presenters as required in the instructions/rubric. PLEASE FOLLOW THE RUBRIC CLOSELY (I grade by the rubric). The rubric for the grand rounds peer response/participants are located under: ASSIGNMENTS: WEEK X ASSIGNMENT 1: SCROLL TO BOTTOM OF PAGE

Please let me know if you have any further questions or need any additional clarification!
