case study midterm assignment – 35%
Due on Unit 7
The purposeof the midterm assignment is to integrate learning obtained from the unit readings and discussion about crisis intervention and apply it to a clinical case. Written work will be evaluated on how well the student formulates and conceptualizes the case utilizing crisis theory, demonstrates an understanding and application of the Robert’s crisis intervention model to the case study.
In the first portion of the assignment you will be expected to develop a case study of a single person which should include the following:
Brief agency description and the role of the social worker within the agency.
Case History
· Include a brief discussion about the circumstances under which the client presented to your agency for assistance. (For example, is the client self-referred, voluntary, involuntary, etc.? Why are they presenting for help at this time.)
Description of the presenting problem including pertinent biopsychosocial data as it relates to the individuals current crisis state.
· Describe/conceptualize the presenting problem using crisis theory
· Include discussion of the crisis precipitant, subjective distress; failed coping and subsequent impairments in functioning precipitated the need for crisis intervention. (This is not simply a retelling of the problem identified; rather you are synthesizing the information provided in your assessment into a clear and concise problem statement.)
· How long has this been a problem and how is it impacted functioning.
· Include a discussion about similar crisis and coping strategies the individual utilized to resolve this crisis.
· Include any relevant cultural/personal factors (sexual identity, traumatic events, significant attachments, etc.) that contribute to the development, maintenance or resolution of the individual’s crisis.
In the second portion of the assignment the student will develop an intervention plan that addresses the presenting problem discussed in Part 1 of the assignment:
Apply and describe crisis intervention strategies that may be utilized, using Robert’s stage crisis intervention model.
· The student is required to discuss each stage of the Robert’s model and specifically discuss how they will offer interventions consistent with the stage being discussed. (For example, what interventions will be implemented to assess lethality (stage 1) or generate and explore alternatives (stage 5)?
While the student may incorporate and utilize an “eclectic approach” within the second portion of the paper, the student must demonstrate where and how these interventions will be utilized within the Robert’s 7 stage model of crisis intervention.
· The student must include a brief discussion of their clinical rationale which is empirically supported for their intervention plan.
Throughout the paper, provide conceptual and empirical evidence to support your problem formulation and intervention strategies, referencing a minimum of 5 scholarly works, at least 3 of which must be outside materials (i.e., not on the syllabus). You may organize your work in a manner you chose however, you must address all topics identified in the assignment guidelines.
The paper should be 8-10 pages in length (not counting references or title page), double-spaced, with 1-inch margins on all sides. Use citation and referencing styles as specified in the Publication Manual of the American Psychological Association (APA style). Throughout the paper, provide conceptual and empirical evidence to support your problem formulation and intervention strategies, referencing a minimum of 5 scholarly works, at least 3 of which must be outside materials (i.e., not on the syllabus).
Midterm assignments are due during the week of Unit 7. The date to be determined by your instructor. Papers may be submitted via the course assignment upload page at the VAC or emailed to the instructor. Papers not received by the deadline will lose half a grade point for each day they are late.
The evaluation of the paper will be based on whether you addressed all aspects of the assignment (adequate case description; problem formulation and appropriate interventions; references), the quality of your written work (organization, flow, clarity, grammar, spelling), and the correct application of APA style.
The assignment is worth 35% of your overall grade for this course.
