How might health care teams achieve therapeutic goals for individual clients?

The collaborative practice of clinicians across disciplines requires a shared language, appreciation of diagnostic and therapeutic paradigms, and recognition of appropriate roles within the health care team.  This collaborative environment is at the heart of a health care system that utilizes the skills and expertise of all its team members in appropriate and extended roles. This model of care delivery is often called integrated care (IC) or collaborative care (CC). Although this model is endorsed by many professional societies and agencies, the CC/IC care delivery model can fail due to multiple factors. Consider the clinical partnerships that result within the CC/IC delivery model. Integrating concepts developed from different content domains in psychology, address the following questions(1)How might health care teams achieve therapeutic goals for individual clients?(2)How does this support health literacy?(3)What factors might lead to the failure of the CC/IC delivery model?(4)How might lack of acceptance of the value or viability of the CC/IC model by stakeholders, lack of awareness of the clinical competencies of various members of the team, barriers to financial reimbursement for services, and lack of integration of support services within the practice cause a breakdown in efficacy?(5)What supportive interventions within the CC/IC model address such issues? In addition, consider how successful health care models assume an understanding of each profession’s competencies and responsibilities. For example, primary care providers (PCPs) are sometimes unaware of the abilities and practice scope of psychology professionals. Address the following questions(1)Identify methods of targeted intervention and education for PCPs that might alleviate potential issues for the CC/IC model(2)Explain how the APA Ethical Code of Conduct can be used to guide decisions in these complex situations(3)Evaluate and comment on the potential work settings where you might find the CC/IC model. In what ways might this model provide more job satisfaction? 

Psychologists may make assumptions about symptoms and patterns of abuse that may lead to errors in assessment and diagnosis.

Generally, abuse is a term used to describe harmful treatment toward a person. This term may include physical abuse, emotional abuse, sexual abuse, exploitation, and neglect (OHA, 2012). Abuse may occur across the life span. Additionally, cases of abuse may not be unique to one particular race, gender, age, or economic class. As a result, the recognition of abuse might pose as challenging as the treatment. Psychologists may make assumptions about symptoms and patterns of abuse that may lead to errors in assessment and diagnosis.

For this Discussion, select a personal bias pertaining to the topic of abuse. As a future professional in the field, consider how personal biases may influence assessment and diagnosis.

Discuss one ethical issue, conflict, or controversy that exists within either the history of public health or our public health institutions

1.Identify three specific events and/or figures from the early historical period of public health (excluding Hippocrates, John Snow, Louis Pasteur, and the Bubonic plaque). Label each event or figure. For each, state its significance in public health history and its current use or application in modern day public health practice. Use complete sentences to describe significance and current use (i.e., do not just list a name, disease, event, or phrase).

2. Identify three specific events and/or figures from the late historical period of public health (excluding Mary Mallon, the 1918 influenza pandemic, and the HIV, Zika, Ebola, SARS, and COVID outbreaks). Label each event or figure. For each, state its significance in public health history and its current use or application in modern day public health practice. Use complete sentences to describe significance and current use (i.e., do not just list a name, disease, event, or phrase).

3. Discuss one ethical issue, conflict, or controversy that exists within either the history of public health or our public health institutions.  Identify which you are addressing. Do not use the COVID pandemic for this question. Be specific and give an example. Offer one recommendation on how this issue either has been addressed in the past or can be addressed through current public health practice. Limit your response to no more than one paragraph of 6-8 sentences.

One paragraph for each.
