Reflection Of Adjunct Therapy

The second day at clinical site was a little bit easier compare to the first day because I was able to build on last clinical confidence. After the first therapy called adjunct therapy, I was able to talk to two client and I was glad to pick a good client for my patient care plan. I approached the client, her initial is ER, diagnosed of mood disorder. She was sitting on a chair and drowsy. I introduced myself (giving information) and I asked for permission if we can talk together and she agreed. I first of all assess her level of consciousness and her level of consciousness was into three. Then, I asked her if she could share with what brought her into hospital (broad opening). She had an argument with her husband and she left the room to the compound to rake leaves. As she was raking the leaves, her husband came to her gesturing, and she was furious and thrown the rake on the ground. According to her, “I throw the rake onto the ground and neighbors call the police on me”. She also said “I love my husband, I’m not gonna hit him with that”.
She said “no, I’m not gonna kill my husband, I love him. But sometime when he made angry I will tell him that I’m goona kill you. But I didn’t mean that!” I also asked her “what have you learn during your stay in these few days in the hospital?”(Encouraging expression). She said “I learnt many thing, I understand that I shouldn’t be angry anymore”. I later ask her that how would she cope if such situation happens again (formulating a plan of action), she said “I will walk away, I will walk my dog or call my daughter or his brother to talk to him”. I then thank her for sharing her information with me. Then I left her because it was lunch
