Second Article - Innovations: Child & Adolescent
Psychiatry: Use of Collaborative Problem Solving to Reduce Seclusion and
Restraint in Child and Adolescent Inpatient Units.
Synopsis
The
article specifically deals with the mental health portion of our case. The goal should be in the direction why is
the student having outburst. In mental
health we think about emotional regulation, frustration tolerance and problem and
adaptability skills.
Can
we remove the expectation and what happens to the behavior? Can we give her skills to deal with the
expectation and resolve the conflict? So there are less aggressive outburst that
are not harmful to others and herself.
Collaboratively working with the student to understand the difficulty.
Alternatively
working through the lacking skills using the Collaborative Problem Skills. If we give the student the skills, could she
we resolve some of the behavior?
What
are the demands that cause her to be do defiant and violent? Could this replace the teachers restraining
her?
