Children and adolescents with schizophrenia have more
difficulty functioning in academic or work settings, and
significant impairment usually persists into adulthood. They
may have speech or language disorders and in some cases
borderline intellectual functioning. These individuals are more
likely to complete suicide attempts or die from other accidental
causes. Schizophrenia is characterized by positive and negative
symptoms. Positive symptoms include hallucinations, delusions,
and behavior disturbance. Negative symptoms include blunted
affect and attention, apathy, and lack of motivation and social
interest.
In this Assignment, you compare treatment plans for adults
diagnosed with schizophrenia with treatment plans for children
and adolescents diagnosed with schizophrenia. You also
consider the legal and ethical issues involved in medicating
children diagnosed with schizophrenia.
The Assignment (2 pages):
Compare at least two evidence-based treatment plans for adults
diagnosed with schizophrenia with evidence-based treatment
plans for children and adolescents diagnosed with
schizophrenia.
Explain the legal and ethical issues involved with forcing
children diagnosed with schizophrenia to take medication for
the disorder and how a PMHNP may address those issues.
All papers submitted include a title page, introduction,
summary, and references.

They may have speech or language disorders and in some cases borderline intellectual functioning. These individuals are more likely to complete suicide attempts or die from other accidental causes. Schizophrenia is characterized by positive and negative symptoms. Positive symptoms include hallucinations, delusions, and behavior disturbance. Negative symptoms include blunted affect and attention, apathy, and lack of motivation and social interest. In this Assignment, you compare treatment plans for adults diagnosed with schizophrenia with treatment plans for children and adolescents diagnosed with schizophrenia. You also consider the legal and ethical issues involved in medicating children diagnosed with schizophrenia. The Assignment (2 pages): Compare at least two evidence-based treatment plans for adults diagnosed with schizophrenia with evidence-based treatment plans for children and adolescents diagnosed with schizophrenia. Explain the legal and ethical issues involved with forcing children diagnosed with schizophrenia to take medication for the disorder and how a PMHNP may address those issues.
