This is just to give an idea Discussion: Child/Parent Interactions Two infants are born in the same inner-city hospital on the same day. One has loving, authoritative parents who provide a nurturing environment. There is open communication between the parents and the child. The other infant has parents who are abusive and neglectful. They have no interest in controlling the child’s behavior or monitoring the child’s activities. The first child grows up to overcome the challenges of the inner city and become a productive member of society, while the second is incarcerated by age 19. In this Discussion, you choose a case study in which you analyze the impact of child/parent interactions and address the likelihood of those interactions resulting in aggressive behavior. This is the second part to the Post a response to the following: Describe the potential interaction of the child and parent in the case study you selected. Would this interaction have a positive or negative influence on the child? Why? Explain the logical outcome for the child. What type of interaction would more likely contribute to aggressive behavior? Justify your response by using the Learning Resources and other academic resources. chosen Case Study #2 Jane and Tom are a married couple in their early 30s. They enjoy successful careers, are financially stable, and have decided to adopt a baby. Jane has decided to take a break from her career to be a stay-at-home mom.

Both eating disorders and somatic symptom disorders involve a mind-body relationship. However, those living with somatic disorders tend to be highly sensitized to their body experiences in a different way than those with eating disorders. While eating disorders can cause individuals to lose their interoceptive awareness of the body, those with somatic disorders tend to have a magnified awareness, often coupled with preoccupation and a high level of anxiety that is deemed to be excessive to the cause. These spectrums of illness require that social workers take an early-intervention, multidisciplinary, and biopsychosocial approach to treatment to be successful in supporting recovery. Both require knowledge and extensive communication with medical providers and other specialists. That priority for interdisciplinary knowledge and teamwork increases in importance given the mortality rates of eating disorders and the mind-body factors in both. This week you analyze the impact of living with an eating disorder and the problems (nutritional, medical, social, and psychological) in the recovery process. You also consider current societal influences that impact the onset, recognition, and recovery process for eating disorders and somatic symptom disorders. Through this week’s Learning Resources, you become aware not only of the prevalence of factors involved in the treatment of eating disorders, but also the societal, medical, and cultural influences that help individuals develop and sustain the unhealthy behaviors related to an eating disorder. These behaviors have drastic impacts on health. In clinical practice, social workers need to know about the resources available to clients living with an eating disorder and be comfortable developing interdisciplinary, individualized treatment plans for recovery that incorporate medical and other specialists. For this Discussion, you focus on guiding clients through treatment and recovery. To prepare: Review the Learning Resources on experiences of living with an eating disorder, as well as social and cultural influences on the disorder. Read the Case of O. Post a 300- to 500-word response in which you address the following: Provide the full DSM-5 diagnosis for O. Remember, a full diagnosis should include the name of the disorder, ICD-10-CM code, specifiers, severity, and the Z codes (other conditions that may be a focus of clinical attention). Keep in mind a diagnosis covers the most recent 12 months. Explain the diagnosis by matching the symptoms identified in the case to the specific criteria for the diagnosis. Explain why it is important to use an interprofessional approach in treatment. Identity specific professionals you would recommend for the team, and describe how you might best utilize or focus their services. Explain how you would use the client’s family to support recovery. Include specific behavioral examples. Select and explain an evidence-based, focused treatment approach that.

Psychopathology Case Studies: Psychotic Disorders Case #1: Magical Art? Isaac, a 31-year-old single male, joins a therapeutic art group that runs twice weekly at an art school in the small northeastern city where he lives. It is an open group, with a core of long-standing members but fairly frequent additions or dropouts, and Charlene, the art therapist who facilitates the group, is keenly attuned to the subtle shifts in group dynamics that ensue whenever one of these changes takes place. Within a few weeks of Isaac’s appearance, she is noticing that a couple of group members have become much more reticent, unwilling to share their reactions to their own (or others’) artwork. She also observes that two other long-time group members who occupy leadership positions among their peers frequently exchange covert glances and smiles or grimaces whenever Isaac contributes to group discussions. Her own sense of his speech is that he tends to be a bit stilted or overelaborate, and that he sometimes takes too long to get to the point, but that he is mostly logical and goal-directed. He speaks softly but clearly and modulates well, though his facial affect is slightly constricted and he often averts his gaze from the person to whom he is speaking after the first few words. He seems shy or anxious, but not especially odd. Isaac’s artwork, on the other hand, does have a rather strange ‘feel’ to it. He tends to avoid messy materials like clay, paint, or pastels, preferring drawing and collage-making. His drawings include exquisitely detailed architectural exteriors: depictions of palaces and temples set in rocky, forbidding landscapes. Sometimes words or phrases are written across the sky or on the temple walls: “The Day is soon,” “Moon Commune,” “Submission Rules.” Often angelic or demonic faces peer through the clouds or emerge from mountain peaks or minarets. His collage work, likewise, is painstakingly precise, but usually populated by scantily clad models. Curious to know more, Charlene conducts a 1:1 interview with Isaac. He is the son of a single mother who attended college but worked as a restaurant hostess. Isaacs’s delivery was complicated; the umbilical cord was wrapped tightly around his neck for several minutes. Perhaps as a result, he suffered from a slight left-sided weakness as a young child, but this resolved. He had little contact with his father, who worked as a tax lawyer but drank excessively and whose practice dwindled. He was often alone as a boy, since his mother had to work in the evening. He coped with this by becoming deeply involved in certain television programs, books, and video games. Those he enjoyed most tended to have fantastic themes, and his inner world came to be populated by fantasy figures. Never very popular in school, still he mostly escaped bullying and performed well academically. He attended a local college for three years, majoring in English, but never graduated, and now works as a barista at an upscale coffe ...

To prepare: Use a differential diagnosis process and analysis of the Mental Status Exam in "The Case of L" to determine if the case meets the criteria for a clinical diagnosis. Questions: Provide the full DSM-5 diagnosis. Remember, a full diagnosis should include the name of the disorder, ICD-10-CM code, specifiers, severity, and the Z codes (other conditions that may need clinical attention). Explain the full diagnosis, matching the symptoms of the case to the criteria for any diagnoses used. Identify 2-3 of the close differentials that you considered for the case and have ruled out. Concisely explain why these conditions were considered but eliminated. Identify the assessments you recommend to validate treatment. Explain the rationale behind choosing the assessment instruments to support, clarify, or track treatment progress for the diagnosis. Explain your recommendations for initial resources and treatment. Use scholarly resources to support your evidence-based treatment recommendations. Explain how you took cultural factors and diversity into account when making the assessment and recommending interventions. Identify client strengths, and explain how you would utilize strengths throughout treatment. Identify specific knowledge or skills you would need to obtain to effectively treat this client, and provide a plan on how you will do so. These questions are based on the following case: The Case of L Presenting Problem Client presented in the emergency room (ER) having been brought in the previous night by her parents. Following an argument with her parents, L cut her right wrist. L's mother reported that L started screaming rapidly and became physically violent toward her prior to cutting her own wrist. Psychological Data L is a 17-year-old Hispanic female who resides in Pennsylvania with her mother, father, and older sister. She is in 11th grade at the local public school. L appeared to be of average to above-average intelligence, as she was able to respond to numerous questions in an articulate and intelligent manner. She was well versed about world history and current affairs. Her mother confirmed that she has done well in school, maintaining a B+ average and participating in various school activities (e.g., chorus, school paper) until last year. L slowly dropped out of many activities she liked in the past. Her mother noticed about 8 months ago that L had also begun having difficulty doing schoolwork. Erratic behavior arose during episodes when L also became irritable and explosive. During these repeated episodes, she became quite defiant, cut classes, had to be placed in school detention, and had even assaulted the principal. L has numerous friends and believed she can relate to all types of people. She has a boyfriend who adores her, but she said she doesn't feel the same about him. The school counselor confirmed that L is outgoing, popular, and smart; but during these episodes she became another person, one who is very ...

Running head: Examining the reasons 1 Examining the reasons 16 Case Study: Examining the Reasons Why Women Stay with Their Abusive Male Partner. Domestic violence is quite common in many forms in today’s contemporary society. In fact, domestic violence is more prevalent than it was in the past. In most of the cases of domestic violence, women tend to be victims more than men are. The woman in the relationship is often faced with the hard position of making the decision to leave or not. A number of factors often deter women from making the decision to leave their abusive lovers. These factors are often social/cultural, economic and or psychological (Loveisrespect.org, 2013). They depend on the nature or the status of the relationship and those in it. Topic Domestic Violence Problem Domestic violence is a major social problem. Domestic violence breaks down the society as well create an emotionally unhealthy family foundation. Studies have shown kids who grew up in homes where there was domestic violence tend to grow up to be abusers themselves, or they have the tendencies to stay in abusive relationships. Research Question What are the reasons that women give for choosing to stay in abusive relationships? Purpose By conducting this research study, it will help to narrow down the reasons why the woman stays in the abusive relationship or marriage. The research will better help psychologists to gain a clearer understanding of to handle this specific patient. In addition, the research will help community organizers to create effective programs and resources for the abusive woman. Lived Experience Capturing the lives of women who choose or chose to stay in domestic violence relationship Participant Criteria Females between the ages 18-35, who are in a domestic violence relationship or who has left a domestic violence relationship in the past twelve months. Time Currently in a domestic violence relationship or has left a domestic relationship within the past twelve months. Literature Review Dziegielewski S. F., Campbell K. & Turnage B. F. (2005). Domestic Violence: Focus Groupsfrom the Survivors’ Perspective. Retrieved. The authors did a study to find out why women who were in abusive relationships or were married were unable to leave. To carry out the study they grouped such women into three; the first group consisted of those who had a desire to leave, group two consisted of those women who already had a plan and lastly group three were women who had left and had no expectations of going back. They then asked them to write down the reasons why they had planned as above or could not do as above. The authors found out that the reasons given by the three categories of women had similarity in terms of context. Despite the status to which they already belonged, they had similar reasons for leaving or returning to their relationships. Some of the reasons included fear, limited resources and quite weirdly, some of the women claimed that t.

Child and Adolescent Counseling Cases: Sex, Sexuality, and Substance Abuse © 2014 Laureate Education, Inc. Page 1 of 2 Week 9: Case 1, Sexuality Loretta is a 17-year-old white female. She is a student in a partial-day treatment center focusing on vocational and social skill development. Loretta has a wide range of disabilities related, at least in part, to a brain injury she suffered as a toddler. She has specific learning disabilities in the areas of writing and reading. Despite her challenges, Loretta is a hard worker. Because of her positive attitude and work ethic within the day treatment setting, Loretta has a good reputation for being dependable and trustworthy. However, over the past 6 months, Loretta has decided she likes sex. She has been caught having sexual contact at the treatment center and also at home in the evenings and on the weekends. This behavior is concerning to Loretta’s parents. They are worried about her sexual safety, potential pregnancy, sexually transmitted diseases, and Loretta’s behavior is outside their comfort zone. They have tried lecturing, grounding her, and other threats and punishments. Loretta does not see anything wrong with her behavior. Apparently, the pleasure she associates with sex more than offsets the consequences she has gotten from her parents, and she seems relatively oblivious to the additional potential consequences of sexually transmitted diseases and pregnancy. Week 9: Case 2, Sexual Orientation Patrick is a 9-year-old African American boy enrolled in the fourth grade in a private Christian school. Patrick is exceptionally intelligent and very academically successful. However, based on reports from his parents and from his teachers, he has always struggled in the social domain. Most recently, Patrick has been causing a disturbance in the classroom by telling teachers and students that one of the other male students in the class is his boyfriend and insisting that he loves boys, not girls. This behavior has been extremely difficult for his parents to accept as they hold a rather traditional Christian perspective. The thought of their son being gay is very disturbing for them. You initially were contacted by Patrick’s parents, who made it clear to you they think Patrick is acting out in an effort to gain attention from his peers. They also make it clear that they are either unwilling or unable to consider the possibility that Patrick might be gay. When the three of them show up in your office, the parents dominate the conversation and tell Patrick he needs to work with you to get things straightened out. Their goal is for you to work with Patrick so he will put a stop to his silly and disturbing claims of having romantic feelings for boys. Patrick refuses to offer any goals for counseling. When you meet with him alone, he slowly opens up and you end up somewhat convinced that this boy really does feel he is gay and likely needs to explore his se.

She loved school and had many close friends. She was actively involved in cheerleading and drama club. Ella\'s parents report that over the last 6 months, Ella\'s grades have dropped significantly. She decided that cheerleading is \"not cool\" and she does not want to be in the drama club any more. She lost about 15 pounds and is often arguing with her brother and her family. She does not like to socialize with her friends anymore and is always on the computer but will not share what she is doing. Ella\'s parents recently reconciled after a 4-month separation. Bruce was just discharged from a substance-use inpatient center where he was receiving treatment for alcohol dependence. Her mother carries a diagnosis for anorexia nervosa but has not displayed any symptoms for 5 years. Both of her parents have been actively engaged in family counseling and individual therapy as well. Based on this scenario, answer the following: What additional information would be helpful for you to effectively form a diagnosis? What theory of adolescent development would you use to gain an understanding of what is happening with Ella? Remember, it is often necessary to consider and even apply more than one theory when working with an adolescent. How would you compare and contrast the development of Ella\'s issues from a cognitive, social, and psychodynamic perspective? Which theory best supports the behaviors that we are currently seeing with Ella? Solution The additional information that is required is whethere ella has gone for depression checkups or has been detected with depression and if she has received therapies. The theory is the ecological theory which tells about the interaction between indisvisual and the environment.This is given by URIE BRONFENBRENNER.This theory tells about yow the adolescents are influenced by family, peers, religion, schools, the media, community, and world events. Ella\'s case is the case of depression causes due to social anxiety as she doesnt want to meet people and her family was seprated for 4 months. She is going through phases but it doesnt include cognitive anxiety. The theory of social cognitive learning is very important for her to understand the relations and society..

Kristopher is a 14-year-old boy who was recently accused by a female classmate of forcing her to have sex with him. He claimed that she agreed to have sex with him and then became angry because he went out with other girls. Kristopher is known as a bully and often fights with other students. He was removed from his biological mother's home when he was 4 years old because she was unresponsive when he was repeatedly abused by her boyfriend. Kristopher was adopted by his current parents when he was 7 years old after he had lived in a series of foster homes. He was a known charmer. Despite his charm, however, he had difficulty controlling his temper and seemed to take pleasure in being cruel to other children and animals. During the next few years, Kristopher's adoptive parents tried to help him. They worked with the school to help him control his temper and provided him with therapy. However, his behavior became increasingly difficult to manage. He frequently lied and sometimes stole money from his mother. He began to spend time with other adolescents who were known to use drugs. His school performance, which had never been satisfactory, deteriorated even further. Soon after he was accused of the sexual assault, he ran away from home but was caught by police and arrested. School Administrators have requested a clinical assessment be completed specific to Kristopher; and consequently, you have been asked to complete the assessment and make a brief presentation to aforementioned officials. Please submit a written assignment addressing the following items: Based on the case information alone what psychiatric disorder(s) seem most likely? What internal and external strengths do you see in Kristopher’s case? What specific treatment(s) would you recommend for Kristopher, and why? You are asked by one of the school officials if Kristopher should be placed back in the classroom. How would you respond to this question? Please cite specific evidence (e.g. risk factors, etc.) to support your argument. How does your understanding of childhood trauma influence your understanding and conceptualization of Kristopher’s presentation? ...

Their responsibilities were to answer phones, make appointments, collect payments on services rendered, and various other duties. Almost all payments into the hospital were in the form of cash, checks, and charge cards. A receptionist called in sick, and Sam could not find any other employee who could work her shift, so Sam decided to cover the shift himself. On the day he covered the sick receptionist’s shift, the phones seemed to be ringing non-stop, clients were backed up, and everything was chaotic. Mr. Ordine, a regular client, and his dog had just been seen by the veterinarian, and Mr. Ordine wanted to pay his bill in cash. Sam knew Mr. Ordine’s dog received just one vaccine, and the price was $25.00, but no paperwork was done yet, so Sam took Mr. Ordine’s cash and said he would mail him the receipt when one was generated. At the end of the day, the veterinarian still had not completed the paperwork, and Mr. Ordine’s file was in the stack to be re-filed. Apparently the veterinarian had forgotten to generate the paperwork, so there was $25.00 in the cash drawer that had no paper trail. Sam needed to run by the grocery store on his way home and was short cash, so he took the $25.00 out of the drawer, meaning to pay it back. The next day, no one had noticed the $25.00 was missing, and Mr. Ordine’s file was re-filed. Sam considered the plusses and minuses of putting the $25.00 back in the drawer, and creating the paperwork for the service rendered. Mr. Ordine was expecting a receipt to be mailed to him, but Sam knew he could easily generate a receipt without it going into the computer system, thus allowing him to just keep the $25.00. After all, it was not that much money and if he did the proper paperwork, he would just have to pay taxes on it anyway. Respond to the checklist items below in a minimum of a 1–2 page response using APA format and citation style (include an additional title and reference page). 1) Explain the ethical considerations from the Consequentialist (choose one: ethical egoism, act utilitarianism, or rule utilitarianism) and Non-consequentialist (choose one: Divine command, or Categorical imperative) or one of the Virtue ethics viewpoints. You should therefore present a total of two viewpoints concerning the scenario above. 2) Explain the strength of one of your viewpoints chosen for #1 and the corresponding weakness with regards to this scenario and the decision made by Sam Trudeau. 3) Describe what you think the effect will be on the other personnel at the hospital upon an auditor discovering this situation. 4) Discuss how Sam Trudeau should approach the situation using your chosen ethical perspective and explain why and ho.

Scenario In Part I of the assignment, Chuck House and Ben Holmes created a business they called House & Holmes Facilities Management. At the time, Chuck and Ben were the only employees. By the end of the second year, House & Holmes hired two additional full-time employees and paid a few temporary laborers as needed for certain maintenance jobs. Chuck and one of the temporary laborers, Steve, were carrying an old cast iron bathtub through a customer’s house when the homeowner’s dog ran under Steve’s feet, causing him to lose his balance and drop his end of the tub. Unable to control the tub, Steve dropped his end of the tub causing it to knock over a flat screen television that shattered on the floor. The tub left scratches in the wood floors. Steve tore his rotator cuff in the fall and was unable to work for two months. Ryan, the customer, was upset about his television. House & Holmes owns three trucks and one van, each registered to the business. The vehicles advertise the company’s name, phone number and website. Jason, one of the full-time employees, drives one of the trucks home at night when he is on call for emergency repairs. One night Jason stopped off at Hillside Tavern to have a couple of beers before going home. On the way home, Jason swerved to avoid hitting a deer and hit a car driven by Charmaine Wilson. Charmaine’s car sustained $4,500 in damages and she missed three days of work recovering from her injuries. Regions Bank loaned $20,000 to House & Holmes. Chuck, Ben and their friend Phil agreed to be co-sureties for the loan. The handyman business defaulted on the loan and Regions Bank plans to sue Phil for payment of the loan. House & Holmes agreed to install a new air conditioning unit and an outdoor kitchen in a luxury home on the beach. The parties agreed to a price of $9,500 for the purchase and installation of the air conditioning unit and outdoor kitchen. Chuck agreed to let the homeowner pay for the work in installments of $2000 a month. Two months later, the homeowner filed for bankruptcy. Chuck demanded payment of the remaining amount due or threatened to repos.

Read the following scenario and analyze how this situation should be handled. Scenario John, a health management student completing an internship at Memorial Hospital, has been appointed chair of a multidisciplinary clinical taskforce by the hospital's CEO. The taskforce will design a new operational system to reduce the waiting time of patients entering the hospital's emergency room (ER). Although John had no clinical experience, he had successfully completed a course in operations management prior to beginning his internship and was excited to apply his new knowledge for solving a "real" problem for the hospital. The hospital CEO told John that when a patient entered the hospital's ER, it could take up to eight hours from the time the patient was initially triaged by a nurse to the time the patient was either discharged home or admitted as an inpatient by the physician. The CEO said, "Due to quality of patient care issues, this timeframe is unacceptable and the taskforce needs to come up with solutions to this problem. My goal is to reduce the "turnaround" time for the patient from eight hours to two hours." Prior to being assigned as the chair of this taskforce, John had informally observed the operations of the hospital's ER and noted that many of the bottlenecks causing patient care delays were caused by operational issues such as nurses filling out duplicate forms and a lack of communication between the hospital departments (for example, radiology) when the ER physicians ordered tests or were waiting for test results to confirm their diagnoses. These bottlenecks caused a slow turnover of the ER's examination rooms and unnecessary paperwork resulting in the ineffective use of both the physicians' and nurses' time. In addition to John, the CEO assigned Dr. Smith, the medical director of the hospital's ER, and Mary, the ER nurse manager, to the taskforce. As chair of the taskforce, John scheduled an initial meeting for 10:00 a.m., the following Monday. John was surprised that both Dr. Smith and Mary arrived twenty minutes late to the meeting saying that this was "taking valuable time away from their normal assignments." John started the meeting by first introducing himself. Before this meeting, he had no interactions with Dr. Smith and Mary. He then reviewed the current statistics of the average wait time for a patient presenting to the ER and the hospital's CEO desire to reduce this time. He then opened the meeting for comments and suggestions. Dr. Smith spoke first, "In my opinion, the current operational systems that we have in place are just fine. We just need more ER physicians and examination rooms so that more patients can be seen." Dr. Smith told John to recommend that the operational systems were good enough and that the hospital should build a new wing for additional ER exam rooms and hire more physicians. Interrupting Dr. Smith, John said, "The hospital has a very limited capital budget and no funds have been allocated for build.

Read the following and then answer the questions at the bottom The IT staff at Texas Health Resources Inc. must deliver more than technical functionality. And it needs to deliver more than the business requirements; it also has to meet the organization’s ethical standards. To that end, its systems must help ensure that Texas Health complies with laws and regulations. And they also have to promote the right behaviors and prevent or flag undesirable ones, says Micheal Alverson, vice president and deputy chief information officer at the Arlington-based nonprofit health care system. Consider the challenge of handling patients’ medical records. Even though the federal Health Insurance Probability and Accountability Act mandates that agencies keep those records private, caregivers still need to access them—when appropriate. So the organization’s electronic health records system “gives doctors and nurses who are caring directly for patients quick access when they use the right authentication,” Alverson says. But additional authentication is required to get records for patients who aren’t under the provider’s immediate care. The system records who gets access to what, allowing officials to audit and review cases to ensure there’s no inappropriate access. “the IT staff holds itself to similar ethical standards, too,” Alverson says. The department has policies that prohibit taking gifts and endorsing vendors, to help guarantee that workers make procurement decisions only based on quality and needs. And when there’s any question—such as when a vendor proposes a deep discount if Texas Health agrees to be an early adopter of a new technology—IT leaders can turn to the system wide Business and Ethics Council for guidance. “If we really want everyone to subscribe to the idea that working at Texas Health is special, then we have to have people actively believe in doing the right thing,” Alverson says. Companies are increasingly looking at their ethics policies and articulating specific values that address a range of issues, from community commitment to environmental sustainability, which employees can use to guide their work. The need to comply with federal laws and regulations drives some of this, while consumer expectations, employee demands, and economic pressures also play a part. Information technology consultant Dena L. Smith lays out a hypothetical dilemma: should an IT department hire a more expensive vendor because the vendor shares its own company’s ethics standards, or should it go with a lower cost provider that doesn’t? Companies with established ethical standards that guide how they conduct business frequently confront this kind of question, Smith says, but it’s a particularly tough question today, given the recession,. With IT departments forced to cut budgets and staff, chief information officers will find it difficult to allocate dollars for applications that promote corporate ethics. “The decisions are easier in the days when the e.

Read the complete description of the Oral History Interview Final Paper due in this class. Here in Week Four, you must submit a draft of this paper. The draft should include an introduction, thesis, the information you provided in the Interview Description you submitted in Week Two, and be at least three to five pages in length (plus a title page and a reference page) at this time. The draft must utilize the course text and at least three scholarly sources, at least one of which you obtained from preliminary research in the Ashford University Library. The draft must be in paragraph form, properly formatted in APA style, and include an updated reference list of sources you intend to use in the final paper. Final Paper: Oral History Interview Paper Throughout the course, you will be exploring various aspects of culture and intercultural communications. Your final assignment in this course will be to conduct an extensive oral history interview with a person who is somewhat older than you and from a culture or subgroup that you are not a member of. This person can be a relative or acquaintance who is from a different generation. It can be someone who immigrated to this country either recently or some time ago. Or, it can be someone who belongs to a different subgroup from you and whose cultural experiences you believe would be very different from your own. Obtain permission from the person you are interviewing to record the conversation (either an audio or a video and audio recording) or to take handwritten notes during the interview. Your overarching goals during the oral history interview are as follows: To learn more about the culture and subcultures to which your interview subject belongs. To determine what issues they encountered in terms of intercultural communications. To relate concepts you have studied in this course to the experiences of this person. After you have conducted the interview, review your recording or your notes and write a six- to eight-page paper (excluding a title page and a reference page), in which you discuss aspects of this person's culture and/or subcultures and communication issues related to his or her cultural identity. In the paper, you must also include the following: The name of the person and his or her relationship to you. The interview subject's cultural background and the culture and/or subcultures to which he or she belongs. At least six questions from the following list. You may add additional questions or other questions not on this list, if you wish. Remember, though, that the focus of your paper must be on intercultural communication issues. How far back in time can the person remember? What is his or her first childhood memory? (Consider how it reflects the interview subject's culture or subculture?) What does the person remember of the experience of being an immigrant or a subgroup member in that time? Which impressions or experiences from that time are most vivid to him or her today? If he or sh.

Read the following case study and answer the reflective questions. Please provide rationales for your answers. Make sure to provide a citation for your answers. CASE STUDY: An Older Immigrant Couple: Mr. and Mrs. Arahan Mr. and Mrs. Arahan, an older couple in their seventies, have been living with their oldest daughter, her husband of 15 years, and their two children, ages 12 and 14. They all live in a middle-income neighborhood in a suburb of a metropolitan city. Mr. and Mrs. Arahan are both college educated and worked full-time while they were in their native country. In addition, Mr. Arahan, the only offspring of wealthy parents, inherited a substantial amount of money and real estate. Their daughter came to the United States as a registered nurse and met her husband, a drug company representative. The older couple moved to the United States when their daughter became a U.S. citizen and petitioned them as immigrants. Since the couple was facing retirement, they welcomed the opportunity to come to the United States. The Arahans found life in the United States different from that in their home country, but their adjustment was not as difficult because both were healthy and spoke English fluently. Most of their time was spent taking care of their two grandchildren and the house. As the grandchildren grew older, the older couple found that they had more spare time. The daughter and her husband advanced in their careers and spent a great deal more time at their jobs. There were few family dinners during the week. On weekends, the daughter, her husband, and their children socialized with their own friends. The couple began to feel isolated and longed for a more active life. Mr. and Mrs. Arahan began to think that perhaps they should return to the home country, where they still had relatives and friends. However, political and economic issues would have made it difficult for them to live there. Besides, they had become accustomed to the way of life in the United States with all the modern conveniences and abundance of goods that were difficult to obtain in their country. However, they also became concerned that they might not be able to tolerate the winter months and that minor health problems might worsen as they aged. They wondered who would take care of them if they became very frail and where they would live, knowing that their daughter had only saved money for their grandchildren’s college education. They expressed their sentiments to their daughter, who became very concerned about how her parents were feeling. This older couple had been attending church on a regular basis, but had never been active in other church-related activities. The church bulletin announced the establishment of parish nursing with two retired registered nurses as volunteers. The couple attended the first opening of the parish clinic. Here, they met one of the registered nurses, who had a short discussion with them about the services of.
