    Hillcrest Medical Case 3 H&P

    HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: Mr. Barua is a 42-year-old gentleman from Bangladesh who presents with chest tightness, shortness of breath, and tachycardia. Dr. J.K. McClain of cardiology is evaluating his heart condition. The patient has had the recent onset of hypomtesis. He was treated for tuberculosis in Bangladesh 15 years ago. This has prompted the concern of whether his treatment for tuberculosis was adequate, or whether there is another cause for his hymoptesis. The duration of his tuberculosis treatment was apparently adequate, according to his wife. But, no records are available. In addition, the patient had a thrombosis of the axillary artery treated last year at Hillcrest. He had an embolectomy and has been on Coumadin since. INR is significantly elevated at 16. None the less, because of the cavitary lesions that are seen in the right and left upper lobes, the possibility of tuberculosis has been raised. Ancillary history was given by the patient’s wife Nupor, with the patient translating for her from the Hindi language.…

    The Joint Commission Added the National Patient Safety Goal: Identifying Individuals at Risk for Suicide

    The Joint Commission added the National Patient Safety Goal: Identifying Individuals at Risk for Suicide (NPSG 15.01.01) in 2007. This goal was directed at psychiatric and general hospitals with patients whose primary complaint is an emotional or behavior disorder, including substance abuse (according to DSM). This goal is directed at both types of hospitals for important reasons; (1) general hospitals do not have an environment that is conducive to the protection of individuals who are suicidal, and (2) psychiatric hospitals are constructed to protect individuals who are suicidal but have a high concentration of suicidal individuals and are not always staffed appropriately. This goal has an intent that basic issues related to suicide and mental status assessment are included in patient care and should be applied with the use of an electronic health record. (Anderson, Ridge, Latimer, 2007). It was the Joint Commission’s opinion that identification of individuals at risk for suicide while under the care of or following discharge from a health care organization is an important step in protecting these at-risk individuals (The Joint Commission, 2010).…

    Conflict Diagnosis

    Suicide rates within prisons, although not the leading cause of inmate deaths, are the leading cause of preventable deaths in a jail or prison setting. Inmates are particularly at risk during the first 24 hr under custody as they face the reality of incarceration (Hayes, 1995). Many inmates, especially those first incarcerated for felony cases, embody a sense of fear, isolation, distrust for everyone, a lack of control, and shame which can lead to choosing suicide as a way to escape from it all. Mental health is considered to be a conflict diagnosis in different facilities on how to approach and find out which inmates suffer from a mental illness and the steps to take to help prevent prison inmate suicides and the action required if an inmate attempts or succeeds at a suicide.…

    Mental Illness In Prison

    What then is the best setting in which to provide the care? They must look at the scenario of developing acute care psychiatric units in prisons by shifting state funds to departments of corrections from departments of mental health. Many departments of corrections have agreements with state departments of mental health for providing acute care. This approach creates expenses associated with the transfer of offenders back and forth and security concerns, as well as interdepartmental conflicts and communication problems inherent in the difference between handling offenders and handling patients.Suicide is the third leading cause of death in U.S. state and federal prisons, exceeded only by natural causes and AIDS. Comprehensive suicide-prevention programs in prisons are of increasing importance to mental health professionals, correctional administrators, healthcare providers, legislators, attorneys, and others as they seek to rehabilitate offenders and avoid the multi million-dollar lawsuits that often arise from inmate…
