For this Assignment, you will document information about a patient that you examined during the last three weeks, using the Focused SOAP Note Template provided. You will then use this note to develop and record a case presentation for this patient.

 

  • Subjective: What details did the patient provide regarding their chief complaint and symptomology to derive your differential diagnosis? What is the duration and severity of their symptoms? How are their symptoms impacting their functioning in life?
  • Objective: What observations did you make during the psychiatric assessment?
  • Assessment: Discuss their mental status examination results. What were your differential diagnoses? Provide a minimum of three possible diagnoses and why you chose them. List them from highest priority to lowest priority. What was your primary diagnosis and why? Describe how your primary diagnosis aligns with DSM-5 diagnostic criteria and supported by the patient’s symptoms.
  • Plan: In your assignment, describe your treatment plan using clinical practice guidelines supported by evidence-based practice. Include a discussion on your chosen FDA-approved psychopharmacologic agents and include alternative treatments available and supported by valid research. All treatment choices must have a discussion of your rationale for the choice supported by valid research. What were your follow-up plan and parameters? What referrals would you make or recommend as a result of this treatment session?
  • In your written plan include all the above as well as include one social determinant of health according to the HealthyPeople 2030 (you will need to research) as applied to this case in the realm of psychiatry and mental health. As a future advanced provider, what are one health promotion activity and one patient education consideration for this patient for improving health disparities and inequities in the realm of psychiatry and mental health? Demonstrate your critical thinking.
  • Reflection notes: What would you do differently with this patient if you could conduct the session again? If you are able to follow up with your patient, explain whether these interventions were successful and why or why not. If you were not able to conduct a follow up, discuss what your next intervention would be.
  • Include at least five scholarly resources to support your assessment, diagnosis, and treatment planning.

There are similarities and differences in the growth and developmental patterns of two toddlers of different ages using Gordon’s functional health patterns. Some patterns reveal that which is shared by two toddlers who are one year and three years of age respectively. In terms of health perception, toddlers become familiar with the language of sickness, but look to parents for care, relief and a return to health. In terms of nutrition, toddlers also look to parents for nourishment, leaving parents to establish regular eating habits for their children. In terms of cognition, toddlers are in the developmental stage. In terms of sleep, toddlers have similar patterns. In terms of self-perception, toddlers are also in the developmental stage. In terms of role, toddlers need ongoing contact with parents, and should not be apart from parents for more than three days. In terms of coping, toddlers experience a combination of inherent and learned behaviors. In terms of value, toddlers learn from experience in decision making, based on the consequences (Khatiban et al., 2019). Other patterns reveal that which is different for toddlers aged one year and those aged three years. In terms of elimination, between one and two years of age, toddlers often continue to use diapers. However, between two and three years of age, toddlers often begin to receive bathroom training from their parents. In terms of activity, one-year-olds are often learning to stand and walk, whereas three-year-olds are already experienced, and tend to be (at least) somewhat coordinated in standing up, walking, running, jumping and sitting down (Khatiban et al., 2019).

Applying the components of Gordon’s functional health patterns as they relate to toddlers are beneficial in the provision of pediatric care. During the toddler years, physical growth and motor development slow down. However, considerable changes occur that are emotional, intellectual and social in nature. Health perception is to encourage regular movement and physical activity. Nutrition is to enhance metabolic function while providing a daily healthy, balanced diet. Elimination is to entail moving from diaper use to independent bathroom use. Activity is to include the development of a wide array of physical skills. Cognitive development is ongoing and should be encouraged. Sleep is to be regimented in forming regular sleep times and patterns. Self-perception may be improved through the application of the other components of health patterns, and through the related positive body image that will result. Role is important in facilitating the activities related to the various roles involved in a given, toddler situation. Coping may entail the adoption of the prevention of aggressive, toddler behaviors, and the management of separation anxiety that may be experienced by toddlers. Value may be developed as the toddler grows (American Academy of Pediatrics [AAP], 2023). It is important to note that any noted shortcomings related to health patterns should be addressed as soon as possible.

Healthcare providers often utilize Gordon’s functional health patterns to organize and measure a patient’s health. Eleven distinct types of functional health are analyzed in the model. In this article, we will use Gordon’s functional health patterns to analyze the differences and similarities between the growth and development of two toddlers of various ages. To be more precise, we will compare and contrast the two toddlers’ growth and development using each of the 11 functional health patterns. A 1-year-old and a 3-year-old will be our comparison toddlers (Dosman et al., 2022). The 3-year-old has greater self-assurance in their abilities and is beginning to acquire more complicated social and cognitive capabilities. The 1-year-old is just learning to walk and explore the world around them.

Health Perception-Health Management Pattern

A person’s attitudes and actions toward their health and well-being are said to fall into a pattern known as health perception-health management. Caregivers have a significant impact on this pattern for toddlers. Parents or guardians of both children are responsible for ensuring they get the necessary care, including vaccines, well-balanced meals, and frequent checkups. On the other hand, a child of three is more likely to question the need for medical visits and medication (Dosman et al., 2022). The 1-year-old will not yet be able to appreciate their significance and may push back against them.

Nutritional-Metabolic Pattern

A person’s eating habits and metabolic processes make up their “nutritional-metabolic pattern.” Both infants and toddlers need to eat foods from each food group to promote healthy growth and development. The 3-year-old may have moved on to solid meals, while the 1-year-old may still be nursing or using formula. Also, the 3-year-old may have more particular eating preferences and avoid some meals. This aversion to trying new meals is less common in the one-year-old, who may be more open to trying new foods because of it (Crotty et al., 2023).

Elimination Pattern

The elimination pattern is bowel and bladder function. Both children should have some bladder and bowel control. The 1-year-old may use diapers or pull-ups, while the 3-year-old may be toilet trained. Both toddlers may have mishaps. The 3-year-old may need restroom reminders, while the 1-year-old needs more diaper changes (Dosman et al., 2022).

Activity-Exercise Pattern

Physical activity and exercise are called the activity-exercise pattern. Both toddlers need frequent exercise for optimal growth. The 1-year-old may merely crawl or take a few steps. The 3-year-old may run, leap, and climb. Youngsters may choose sports or dancing lessons (Champeaux et al., 2022).

Sleep-Rest Pattern

Sleep-rest patterns are a person’s sleep habits. Both toddlers need enough sleep to grow. However, their sleep schedules may vary. The 3-year-old may no longer sleep, while the 1-year-old may still need numerous naps. The 3-year-old may also oppose bedtime and early rising (Crotty et al., 2023).
