I Human Carolyn Cross Reference Guide

Document preview thumbnail
Preview 1 out of 4 pages

This is a vague guide for the Carolyn Cross I-Human assessment assignment. It guides through most of the case and will help the student work through the appropriate assessment steps. Be wary, as not all fine details are the same case by case. Generally speaking, this is a good reference that earned me an A.
