Client Needs: Psychosocial Integrity

Objective: 6
Page Number: 4
Feedback: In recovery-oriented care, the person with a mental health problem
develops a partnership with a clinician to manage the illness, strengthen coping
abilities, and build resilience for life’s challenges. Being involved in decision making
helps the client transition from a dependent-driven relationship to a collaborative
recovery-oriented one. Self-direction is reflected as individuals define their own
goals and design a path to meet those goals. Individualized and person-centered is
reflected by the individual's use of his or her own unique strengths and resilience as
well as needs, preferences, experiences, and cultural background. Holistic involves
the whole life of the individual—mind, body, spirit, and community.
9. A nurse is explaining recovery to the family of a client diagnosed with a mental
disorder. Which statement would be most appropriate for the nurse to include about

process of change through which individuals improve their health and wellness, live
a self-directed life, and strive to reach their full potential. It is a nonlinear process

by the community and consumers, along with self-acceptance to ensure inclusion
and participation in all aspects of life.

Feedback: Recovery emerges from hope: The belief that recovery is real
provides the essential and motivating message of a better future—that people can
and do overcome the internal and external challenges, barriers, and obstacles that
confront them.. Recovery is also holistic, addressing an individual's whole life,
including body, mind, spirit and community. Recovery is supported by peers and
allies and through relationships and social networks. Finally, recovery is supported
by addressing trauma, such that services and supports should be trauma-informed
to foster safety.

Feedback: Stigma is one of the major treatment barriers facing individuals with
mental health problems and their families. Diagnostic criteria have been established
for mental disorders, and evidence through epidemiologic research provides
valuable information about the mental health status of population groups and
associated factors. A guiding principle of recovery is hope, the belief that recovery
is real and that the people can and do overcome the internal and external
challenges, barriers and obstacles confronting them.
15. Which statement best reflects measures to address public stigma?
A) “The client with schizophrenia needs additional assistance.”
B) “The bipolar in room 222 is really out of control today.” C) “That
client down the hall is a raving maniac.”
D) “That hyperactive client is acting like a psycho.”
Ans: A

Feedback: One way to reduce public stigma is to use nonstigmatizing language.
Rather than referring to the client as schizophrenic or bipolar, it is more appropriate
to say "the client with schizophrenia" or "the client with bipolar disorder." Terms
such as maniac and psycho reinforce the negative images of mental illness.
16. When assessing a client with a mental illness, the nurse determines that the
client is experiencing label avoidance when the client states which of the following?
A) “I'm at the cause of my illness.”
B) “I'll never be able to function in the world.”
C) “I'm as crazy as everybody thinks I am.”
D) “I really don't need to see anyone.”

Feedback: Label avoidance involves an individual not seeking treatment so as not
to be labeled as mentally ill. The statement about not really needing to see anyone
suggests label avoidance. The statements about being the cause of the illness, not
being able to function in the world, and being as crazy as everyone says reflect self-
stigma, the internalization of negative stereotypes by individuals with mental
illness. G MRADESLAB.CO
