Answer 1A
In this case study of Hanan, It has been mentioned that the patient is suffering from
severe mental health concern and due to this, she is suffering from morning sickness, tiredness,
tearfulness, as well as suicidal ideations. It has been mentioned that Hanan has developed
suicidal ideations and thinking of consuming over the counter medications in overdose.
Therefore, this could be one of the crucial healthcare complications and hence this should be
targeted for the health improvement of the patient. As per Bannink et al. (2014), patients with
adverse suicidal ideations should be provided with early and effective intervention so that the
risk of their attempting suicide could be prevented and hence, this should be the healthcare
complication that should be targeted in the healthcare complication of Hanan.
Answer 1B
As per Bannink et al. (2014), if any patient is suffering from suicidal ideations and
despite of understanding their responsibility in life, they commit suicidal attempts, then
application of evidence based interventions becomes the primary concern (Witkiewicz &
Knudsen, 2014). Some interventions that should be applied immediately in this case
situation are Collaborated assessment with effective treatment planning, structured
problem solving therapies, and making the patient understand the positivity of her
situation (Guille et al., 2015). Therefore, as mentioned in the paper of Armitage et al.
(2016), Hanan would be asked to attend the psychological therapies, so that the coping
skills in her personality could be restored. Further, it will also make her patient and calm
in stressful conditions of life (Armitage et al., 2016).

Answer 2A
In this case study of Hanan (38) who has lost her country Syria (due to increasing
conflict) and her husband (in an accident 3 months ago) and due to her children’s
behavioral complications, are suffering from mental healthcare complications. Hence in
such condition, her anxiety because of her husband’s death, her inability to communicate
with her family in Syria and her children’s aggression, she developed the feeling of
uncertainty and this is the primary complication in her mental and emotional health and
this is the aspect that should be addressed (Doganay & Demiraslan, 2016). In this case
study, it was seen that Hanan, her three children and husband displaced from Syria to
Australia to settle down for a better future. It was also mentioned in the paper by Dossa et
al. (2015), anxiety and fear or uncertainty of existence is one of the most crucial mental
concerns that should be targeted with effective interventions.
Answer 2B
The patient would be provided with cognitive behavioral therapy and the
communication therapy so that her mental health complication related to her anxiety, fear
and tension could be targeted. In this aspect, she would be provided with one month long
cognitive behavioral therapy so that her mental health condition could be addressed
effectively and improvement could be achieved (Bryant-Jefferies, 2016). Further, she would
be provided with constructive thinking abilities by including her in art, gardening and
educational sessions so that she could overcome her negative approach of thinking and
develop effective and positive thinking (Doganay & Demiraslan, 2016).
