Fred Smith, aged 38 years, is held

Fred Smith, aged 38 years, is held involuntarily under the provisions of Mental Health Legislation. He had been referred to his GP when he had begun to miss work (as a town planner), was drinking increasing amounts of alcohol and had injured himself when challenging local people of ‘spying on him’. He had not sustained a fracture when he fell from the garden wall to a hard surface three metres below but knocked his head and had a brief Loss of Consciousness (LOC). When reviewed by his GP he was suspicious and uncooperative accusing the GP, who was known to him for many years, of being in league with his neighbours. You meet him in your role in the tertiary hospital where Mr Smith has been sent involuntarily for observation and assessment. You are meeting with Mr Smith to explore his current situation and explain his possible upcoming withdrawal from alcohol. The mental health service uses an Alcohol Withdrawal Scale that uses diazepam to support alcohol withdrawal if needed. Mr Smith does not regard his alcohol use as problematic but is keen to use support to improve his life. To complete this assessment task, you will draw on a therapeutic encounter from your professional experience placement (PEP), which you will recreate through role play with a peer. You may choose to video this recreation to enhance your reflection on the encounter using a structured framework to identify the strengths of the therapeutic approach you used. This is based on the 6-category intervention analysis by John Heron. Information about Heron’s six category intervention analysis can be found in Module 2, page 2.2. It will be examined in Intensive 1 when you will have an opportunity to practice this. Elements required for this assessment will be explored during your Intensive 1 on-campus or online workshop. Assessment criteria Assessment Criteria Measures Intended Learning Outcome: Criterion 1 Identify an interaction from PEP that illustrates an exchange with therapeutic intent. ILO3, ILO5 Criterion 2 Document a therapeutic interaction that includes verbal, paralinguistic and nonverbal elements. ILO5 Criterion 3 Analyse the therapeutic exchange and identify the type and intent of your exchange according to the set framework. ILO3, ILO5 Criterion 4 Critique the exchange, developing alternate interactions with focused therapeutic intent. ILO3, ILO5 Criterion 5 Communicate in a professional manner and adhere to academic presentation requirements. ILO5 Part 1 Select and document a therapeutic encounter from your PEP Provide a brief introduction to your interaction. Include the person’s reason for admission, the nature of the facility and a summary of your previous interactions with this person. Document your interaction, including verbal, paralinguistic and non-verbal communication using the format provided on the template provided in MyLO (in the first column of template). Part 2 Analyse the therapeutic encounter Analyse this documentation to identify the therapeutic approaches you used and the responses of the person, using the same document format or template provided. Based on this analysis, write a paper in which you reflect on the strengths of these approaches and consider where alternative therapeutic interactions might have been used for a different response. A concluding statement summarising alternative approaches to the interactions should be included. Task format
