AI Summary
This case study presents a scenario involving Ron, a 15-year-old boy exhibiting suicidal ideation and potential substance abuse. The assignment begins with a detailed account of Ron's background, including his parents' observations of behavioral changes and a description of an interview conducted by a nurse. The interview explores Ron's feelings, potential cannabis use, and physical symptoms. The analysis then applies the Levett Jones clinical reasoning cycle to Ron's case, including collecting cues (nervousness, red eyes), processing information (family dynamics, parental issues), identifying problems (suicidal ideation, depression), establishing goals (therapeutic engagement, behavior responsibility), taking action (drug remittance check, behavioral therapies), and evaluating the treatment's effectiveness. The reflection emphasizes the importance of communication skills, empathy, and creating a non-hostile environment when dealing with patients with disruptive behavior. The case study includes a list of relevant references, supporting the analysis with scholarly research on adolescent mental health and substance abuse.
