*On February 2th 2015 at 10.15 am, Fred van der Wal in the function of a caseworker for the Wildwood Case Management Team is following up with Mr. Antonio Consuelo for his first interview. This is a written report as it happened on that day. To prepare myself for the interview I made show to review the initial and new referral that was taken by telephone. It was important for me as a caseworker to familiarize myself with the situation that initiated the phone call by Maria of my client, Mr. Antonio Consuelo. From the conversation earlier with Maria, I had gathered that his wife had died. Therefore I surveyed my office and was happy to realize that it was decorated in a neutral fashion in such manner that my clients could not recall traumatic memories from my own private life like photograph of my own spouse and family members. …show more content…
As I walked into the waiting area I noticed an older gentleman and a younger woman waiting she is well dressed and Antonio appeared to have his eyes slightly closed, while is arms slightly rested on a walker that stood before him. He was nondescript dressed that neither made him stand out in anyway nor was it disturbing to the casual onlooker. Gently I made myself aware to him as I introduced myself by Mr. Fred van der Wal and the purpose of meeting them this of this day. I guided them to my office and bid them to sit down in a chair across of my desk as I could possible write down a few notes if so
Wildwood: Imperium. The first main conflict is character vs. nature. Prue is trying to take over the Dowager Governess control from the ivy. She is fighting against her because if the Governess won she would take over all of the Woods and the Outside. Prue does end up being able to control the ivy, but not without a cost. She puts it into the Council Tree, where she then dies atop of the tree because she drained all her energy.
Ms. Phillips met us in the waiting area and walked us through the very spacious building to the elevator, taking us to her office on the third floor. She explained to us that the building was once a hospital (W. Phillips, personal communication, October 4th, 2013). This explained the wide doorways, spacious halls, drab atmosphere, and considerable amount of walking it takes to get from one place to the next. Ms. Phillips’ office had very welcoming in décor. Pictures of her child and what seemed to be his artwork, and the work of other children, decorated almost every available wall space. Because the room was once a hospital room, the layout was very strange for an office. Visitors have to sit perpendicular to Ms. Phillips’ desk. Because Ms. Phillips provides in home services, I do not believe this would aff...
Based of the information gathered during my research about my areas of interest, I decided to do the informational interview with one of the workers in the Region of Peel organization; her name is Lisa Hartley and she is the Analyst Supervisor in the Human Services department.

The six types of interview questions and skills are: open ended, facilitation, silence, subtle repetition, and summarization.

The 4-hour shadowing experience at Casa De La Luz Hospice was insightful to the aspects of palliative care. The experience included shadowing the hospice physician and nurse as they calmly interacted with the patients, assessing for abnormalities in ABC, safety, and pain. Additionally, this experience provided examples of therapeutic communication techniques that were appropriate when speaking to patients and families.
On October 5, 2017 I interviewed Dr. EIyse Lovell. The interview took place in Dr. Lovell’s office at the Highlands College and lasted about thirty minutes. I asked Elyse a total of eleven questions. There were many details throughout the interview that were shocking to me. For instance, since her father worked in the oil/water drilling industry she spent the majority of her formative, adolescent years overseas. She lived in many places such as Beirut, Puerto Rico, and Holland before returning to the United States when she was sixteen years old. She then lived in the state of Oklahoma and attended public school.
Recall the example of poor professionalism when the audiologist exhibited lack of empathy, this caused psychosocial stress on Mrs. Groneberg. After their encounter Mrs. Groneberg displayed her response to self by thinking, “I hate myself for letting her do it. What kind of mother am I? I feel like a fool; worse, like a failure. I’ve let Avery down” (2008, p. 119). When reading Mrs. Groneberg reflect on her interaction with a supposed professional it made this OTS reflect on the impact one can have on psychosocial health of future
The text speaks of the patient as a depressed thirty-five year old woman who after the accident refused to speak of the ordeal with staff or family. The goals of the therapy, as stated in Landgarten are:
“Happiness is only real when shared” – Jon Krakauer; Into the Wild. Even through all of the rough patches my family has had, we have always seemed to remain happy and buoyant. From moving around to three completely different environments to attempting to reestablish after a house fire. Though dealing with these events did take quite the toll on me, the different environments have truly allowed me to grow as a person and become more creative, confident, and optimistic.
Empathy-Although Jackie remained polite and positive throughout the call, there were missed opportunities to provide the client empathy to show care and put ourselves in his shoes. Also, we can show empathy for any inconvenience caused by the experience. ( I apologize we were
Then we went to the court again, but this time, it was mental health court. Mental health court functions as a concurrent court – combined form of drug and mental health court – since many people with mental health problems abuse drugs to stop hallucinations. I could tell people who were having mental problems by their hair. Many of their hair were disheveled. Also, they had the empty look on their faces. Furthermore, their reactions were either gloomy or overly excited. Besides, some people were wearing orange uniforms, shackled to the chair. Perhaps they are prospective applicants for the mental health court about to be evaluated. After everyone went through their current situation reports, there was a man who were graduating from the whole mental health program. He received complimentary remarks from everyone and made a speech how he felt grateful towards people who helped him and what he had to go through during the mental health court program. It was touching and I could feel that he had to overcome many obstacles, yet he remained on the way to be defeat his
For my Field Experience 1 observed Mrs. Vicki Banks a certified teacher of the visually impaired at the South Carolina School for Blind on September 27 and 28, 2016 during sixth period from 1:00 to 1:50 and then I met Mrs. Banks on November 1, 2016 during sixth period to interview her and ask her a few questions I had from the observations. Mrs. Banks selected a student to perform the Functional Vision Assessment that is diagnosed with Optic Nerve Hypoplasia. The student is a twelfth-grade student at the school.
Interviewer’s responses are an important principle in the interviewing process, just like many other standards that are involved such as interpersonal influence and attraction. The interview is meant to be purposeful, responsible and goal directed, and the assessor’s responses greatly influence the achievement of these objectives. These responses can either be characterized as effective or avoided (ineffective). Examples and discussion of both types of responses will be given for a list of statements made by a client during an interview that will depict how it could affect the conversation. Once the examples and discussion have been explained, my thoughts will be shared on why the clinical interview is such an important component of a psychological
