1. Psychology is relevant to everyday life as everything we do, think, feel and respond to involves psychology. There are many branches of psychology including clinical, health, forensic, educational and organizational psychology. 2. With the rise of diseases, social issues, and mortality from psychological suffering, there is an increased need for psychologists across many professions. Psychologists help people learn effective social interaction and understand their internal world to channel energy positively. 3. One important role of psychologists is in clinical settings like hospitals and clinics where they evaluate, test, and treat patients suffering from psychological disorders. Treatment varies depending on the case but may include therapy, counseling, and skills training.

This document provides an overview of the role of an occupational therapist in an acute 34-bed mental health unit. The OT assists clients to maximize their independence in daily activities and life roles by assessing how their mental illness impacts functioning. The OT's duties include participating in clinical reviews, conducting assessments, providing individual interventions such as skill-building groups, and coordinating discharge planning. The recovery program run by the OT incorporates psychoeducation, health promotion, and recreational groups to support clients' recovery progress.

Diagnostic Worksheet Patient’s name/ age: Give full name and age Summary of Pertinent Case Features Presenting Problem: What did the patient report was the issue when coming to therapy? Did anyone bring the patient or require/ recommend that he come? If so, why? What are the issues in the patient’s life and how would he like them addressed? Does the patient have a goal in mind? Do not list a diagnosis in this area. This should be the most detailed section. Medical History: List any past or current major medical problems (past surgeries, stroke, diabetes, etc.) If there is none, write, “none noted.” History of Mental Illness: List the patient’s and/ or family’s history of mental illness. If there is none, write, “none noted.” History of substance use/ addiction: List substances that the patient is currently using and/ or addicted to, as well as frequency and amount of use. If currently not using, describe patient’s history of past use or abuse, or lack thereof. If the patient does not currently use alcohol or drugs, and has no history of doing so, write “none noted.” Stressors in past year: What is currently causing stress in this patient’s life? Symptoms of the disorder do not constitute stressors. You may choose to be specific (“Patient’s wife has threatened to leave him due to his having an affair with an ex-girlfriend.”) or general (“Marital problems”). Of course, the more specific descriptions give a better overall picture. Consider stressors in all areas of life: social support, occupational, educational, legal, financial, grief, interpersonal conflict, etc. Safety assessment: Address suicidal and homicidal ideation. Address any issues that may present danger (eg. Violence, neglect of children, inability to care for one’s self, etc.) If the patient has no current suicidal/ homicidal thoughts or behaviors, write, “denies suicidal/ homicidal ideation.” Appearance/ behavior: Discuss how the patient looks (appearance) and how he is acting (behavior). Suggestions include addressing hygiene (well-groomed, unkempt, lacking hygiene, etc.), dress (disheveled, well-dressed, wrinkled clothing, etc.), overall impression (cooperative, polite, demanding, guarded, etc.) Thought Processes: Make note of any unusual thought processes (delusional, obsessive, paranoid, etc.) or note if thoughts are coherent/ logical. Using good/ fair/ poor as indicators, address both quality of insight (ability to understand self) and judgment (ability to make appropriate decisions). Mood/ Affect: Mood refers to the patient’s emotional expression via their words and affect refers to emotional expression via action (facial expressions, etc.) Address both. Note if mood and affect seem contradictory (incongruent mood/ affect). Intellectual Functioning: Assess their intelligence (high/ average/ low). Intelligence is unchanged by symptoms of a disorder, level of consciousness, education level, or age. It is generally safe to assume average i ...

Discuss how a successful organization should have the following layers of security in place for the protection of its operations: information security management, data security, and network security. Multiple Layers of Security Marlowe Rooks posted Mar 13, 2020 9:54 AM Looking at Vacca”s book chapter 1, “Information security management as a field is ever increasing in demand and responsibility because most organizations spend increasingly larger percentages of their IT budgets in attempting to manage risk and mitigate intrusions, not to mention the trend in many enterprises of moving all IT operations to an Internet-connected infrastructure, known as enterprise cloud computing (John R. Vacca, 2014)”. It is the organization responsibility to protect its business and its client information at all times. With that said I’m going to break down why companies need to have multiple layers of security and what types they should implement below.  The first layer is Information security management which can be from Physical Security, or Personnel Security. Physical Security can range from physical items, objects, or areas from unauthorized access and misuse. Personnel Security is to protect the individual or group of individuals who are authorized to access the organization and its operations. Some of the reason to implement Information Security is as follow: · Decrease in downtime of IT systems · Decrease in security related incidents · Increase in meeting an organization's compliance requirements and standards · Increase in customer satisfaction, demonstrating that security issues are tackled in the most appropriate manner · Increase in quality of service · Process approach adoption, which helps account for all legal and regulatory requirements · More easily identifiable and managed risks · Also covers information security (IS) (in addition to IT information security) · Provides a competitive edge to an organization with the help of tackling risks and managing resources/processes The second layer would be Data Security which can be refers to the process of protecting data from unauthorized access and data corruption throughout its lifecycle. Data security includes data encryption, tokenization, and key management practices that protect data across all applications and platforms. Some of the reason to implement Data Security is as follow: · Cloud access security – Protection platform that allows you to move to the cloud securely while protecting data in cloud applications. · Data encryption – Data-centric and tokenization security solutions that protect data across enterprise, cloud, mobile and big data environments. · Web Browser Security - Protects sensitive data captured at the browser, from the point the customer enters cardholder or personal data, and keeps it protected through the ecosystem to the trusted host destination. · Mobile App Security - Protecting sensitive data in native mobile apps while safeguarding the data end-to-end. · eMai.

Culture influences both physical and psychological health through lifestyle behaviors and stress levels, shapes how individuals perceive and understand health issues, and impacts health decision-making processes based on cultural norms and beliefs. Personal experiences with different cultural approaches to health can provide insights. Research from scholarly sources can help illustrate these cultural influences on health.
