Psychiatric Assessment Of The Adult And
\nOlder Adult 4
\nPsychiatric Assessment Of The Adult And Older Adult 4
\nMany assessment principles are the same for children and adults;
\nhowever, with adults\/older adults, consent for participation in the
\nassessment comes from the actual client and not parents or
\nguardians. The exception to this is adults\/older adults who have
\nbeen determined incapacitated by a court of competent
\njurisdiction. Some adults may be easier to assess than
\nchildren\/adolescents as they are more psychologically minded.
\nThat is, they have better insights into themselves and their
\nmotivations than children\/adolescents (although this is not
\nuniversally true).
\nOlder adults present some of their own unique assessment
\nchallenges in that they may have higher levels of stigma
\nassociated with seeking psychiatric care. Additionally, there are
\nhigher rates of neurocognitive disorders superimposed on other
\nclinical conditions such as depression or anxiety, which creates
\nadditional diagnostic challenges.
\nThis week, you will develop your own personal format for initial
\ninterviews of mental health clients. You also will explore the
\nrestrictions and limitations for practice as a PMHNP in your home
\nstate and create a plan for passing the national certification exam.
