She admits to using street drugs every once in a while when she can find someone who will share with her. She admits her life is a mess and she doesn’t know how to make it better.What data can you gather based on available client information?What questions should you ask yourself while interviewing this client?During planning, how can you, as the nurse, best assist this client?What are the potential strategies that would assist the client to a “better” life?Your paper should be 2 pages in length, in APA format, typed in Times New Roman with 12-point font, and double-spaced with 1” margins.

For example, a surgical unit nurse may have observed that elevating the head of the bed for an abdominal surgery patient reduces complaints of pain. The concepts are head of the bed and pain.

Use current literature to define your concepts.ExpectationsInitial Post:Length: A minimum of 250 words, not including referencesCitations: At least one high-level scholarly reference in APA format from within the last 5 years

What’s the importance of health insurance? No one plans to get sick or hurt, but most people need to access health care services at some point in their lives. Health insurance status in the United States is varied and inconsistent – and it is changing over time. Critics argue both in favor of or against universal coverage, citing both benefits and drawbacks of coverages and their associated costs.Assessing the impact of health insurance coverage on a person’s health is complex; health effects may take a long time to be realized, can vary based on insurance benefits/lack thereof, and are often clouded by confounding variables. Let’s begin our Case by examining the purposes of health insurance, the current health insurance status of the U.S.population, and what current research tells us regarding the use vs. outcomes of health insurance coverage.Case AssignmentUsing the information in the required readings, as well as some additional research in peer-reviewed sources, complete your Case assignment by addressing the following: Articulate the specific purposes of health insurance. Provide a summary of the current health insurance status of the U.S. population. Who is covered, and by what type of insurance? What portion of the population is uninsured and underinsured? What are the trends in coverages over time? Explain how health insurance coverage affects health care utilization, disease treatment and outcomes, self-reported health, and mortality.Assignment Expectations Conduct additional research to gather sufficient information to support your analysis. Provide a response of 3-5 pages, not including title page and references. There are multiple required items to be addressed herein; please use subheadings to show where you are responding to each required item and to ensure that none are omitted.

It is common for social workers to be presented with a crisis situation brought forth by clients, families, communities, and/or organizations. The ultimate goal is to restore the client to equilibrium. The five stages of the crisis are (1) the hazardous event, (2) the vulnerable stage, (3) the precipitating factor, (4) the state of active crisis, and (5) the reintegration or crisis resolution phase.There are times when a social worker will use more than one theory to assist in conceptualizing the problem and intervention, particularly if the theories complement each other. For example, resiliency theory can be used alongside crisis theory.To prepare: Review and focus on the same case study that you chose in Week 2.By Day 7Submit a 1- to 2-page case write-up that addresses the following:Map the client’s crisis using the five stages of the crisis.Describe the client’s assets and resources (in order to understand the client’s resilience).Describe how you, the social worker, will intervene to assist the client to reach the reintegration stage of the crisis. Be sure that the intervention promotes resiliency.Evaluate how using crisis theory and resiliency theory together help in working with a client.Be sure to:Identify and correctly reference the case study you have chosen.Use literature to support your claims.Use APA formatting and style.Remember to double-space your paper.
