In your Crisis and Positive Intervention course, you examined situational procedures and techniques necessary for defusing situations identified as crises. You worked toward gaining skills to evaluate crisis experiences (difficult emotional, social, and health crises) by combining active listening with an understanding of crisis patterns.
You also explored application of the ALGEE framework for mental health crisis response in your Mental Health Crisis Response course.
In this Discussion, you will revisit these topics and the ALGEE framework and apply them during a live simulation interaction. You will assess the risk of a suicide or harm related to this case.
Utilize the three documents from the HUMN 3010: Crisis and Positive Intervention and the ALGEE framework to prepare for this weeks Discussion and the simulated professional meeting in the Assignment.
To Prepare
Review your course announcements for possible information related to this weeks Discussion and Assignment.
Review the Week 4 readings and required media.
Review the case scenario in the Week 2 resources.
By Day 4
Determine if there are warning signs of suicidal ideation in the case scenario. The case scenario is found within the Week 2 resource titled Intake Assessment: Mari.
Explain if there are circumstances that place the person at increased risk for suicide.
How would you assess the risk and help the person through the crisis using the ALGEE assessment?
Be sure to incorporate your assessment findings and incorporate helpful practices, such as listening, providing reassurance and information, encouraging professional help, and encouraging self-help.
