Based on presenting information, Mrs. William and Paul were included in the treatment process. However, Peter and the LCSW preselected sessions that families could attend. During the first session, the LCSW began by asking a question Peter what he wanted from agreeing to therapy. Peter responded that he wanted to “get help with managing stress, marital issues and communication tactics.” When asked how he would know that he was getting that helped, he said he would be relaxed at home, and sociable and his marriage will start to feel like a partnership again. This was expanded on when the Miracle Question (MQ) was asked. LSCW: “Peter, if you woke tomorrow and all of your issues were no longer present what are some things that would be different.”
Marvin Pickering was a science high school teacher in Will County, Illinois. Pickering was dismissed from his job after he wrote a letter to the editor of the local paper, Lockport Harold. The letter was sarcastically criticizing the way his superintendent and school board raised and spent funds. The superintendent and school board took offense to the comments within the letter and dismissed Marvin Pickering from his teaching job.

They assist with planning recreational activities, getting meals together, or doing laundry and along the way, assist the family to clearly understand young people and how to support them toward the goals they have (A child and youth care approach, Garfat and Shaw, 2003, pg. 1). 39-53).” Reaching the goals that a CYC sets for their clients can become the most important element of their lives. Additionally, their parent may require assistance and by reaching out to both the client and the parent, they are able to feed off each other’s progress.

These children had the worst histories I have seen in mental health nursing. The opportunity to work with this population was the most difficult and honorable thing I have done in my life. Part of my goal as a nurse practitioner will be to work with the underserved and difficult populations that others are not willing to work with. The next four years I spent floating around seven different units at CenterPointe Hospital. Some of the units include adult detox unit, geriatrics, acute adult, chemical dependency residential programs, and adolescent units. Child and adolescents are my passion but working with dual diagnosis, acute adults and geriatric/dementia populations gave me a well-rounded experience. I have also worked the last 3 years PRN as an eating disorder nurse. This vast experience working with every psychiatric population has taught me much about psychiatric disorders and provided me with balanced work history. In addition, I have worked as charge nurse of these units and gained leadership skills. I intent to use the experience and knowledge from my nursing career to help me assess, diagnose and treat, as a nurse

It is good that MMC has many benefit programs such as Shot-term Disability, Long-term Disability, Health Care, Retirement and Life Insurance. Most of the benefits programs are paid by company, which can highly motivate employees to have good work performance. Furthermore, employees have chance to decide to pay or not pay for those optional term insurance. This makes employees feel satisfied because they don’t have to pay for benefits programs that they think are unnecessary to them. As I notice, fifty percentages of employees in MMC are over 46 years old. Providing such flexible benefit programs make them think the company is good and can retain them. Employees who are over 46 years old have sufficient knowledge about benefits programs in USA because they work for a long time and work for different companies. Furthermore, MMC Company has a tendency to provide benefit such as retirement plan to employees who have high loyalty to the company and stay in the company for a longer time. This kind of specific provision of the programs make employees feel fair and motivated and reduce some cost of the benefits. Thus, MMC do a good job in its benefit programs.

The first observation I had when entering the unit was how strong the sense of community was among clinical team members. Each morning begins with a meeting with the OT (and two COTAs), social workers, head nurse, psychologist and unit manager to go over what happened during the PM shift and identify priorities for the day. I had never observed in a setting that met daily before. The professionals care about each other; I heard teasing and questions about each other’s weekend. They also clearly cared about their patients.
