(Ian Munro is my tutor and lecturer)
Chapter 5: Recovery
Chapter 9: Psychosis
Chapter 12: Substance misuse
-Chapters 5 & 12 have been advised to read by the lecturers to understand recovery and use it to critique the literature. The chapters also contain references we can use however we also marked on finding our own references
-Chapter 9 is to understand psychosis and the symptoms
I can if need be scan the pages for the writers reference. Please advise if he/she wishes this.
Some of the points we need to discuss in the essay:
Read the peer reviewed evidence based literature first about the recovery process and strategies and then critique it based upon the readings
a drug induced psychosis does not equate to schizophrenia..there are many similar symptoms that the client may display so discuss them accordingly..
Recommending various therapies as a MHN or even undertake them yourself with the cliente.g.relaxation technique meditation
Medication is one of the strategies nurses will use monitor and review with the prescribing Psychiatrist
Discuss both acute in patient and upon discharge as wellthe recovery process is ongoing after discharge too.
