The death of a loved one is a significant event that everyone experiences. An individual’s social environment, including societal and familial cultural factors, may influence how an individual approaches death or grieves the loss of someone else who dies. You can anticipate addressing grief in your social work practice and, therefore, should develop an understanding of the grieving process. Models of grieving may identify stages through which an individual progresses in response to the death of a loved one; however, these stages do not necessarily occur in lockstep order. People who experience these stages may do so in different order or revisit stages in a circular fashion. Understanding the various ways individuals cope with grief helps you to anticipate their responses and to assist them in managing their grief. Select one model of grieving to address in this assignment. Addressing the needs of grieving family members can diminish your personal emotional, mental, and physical resources. In addition to developing strategies to assist grieving individuals in crisis, you must develop strategies that support self-care. In this Assignment, you apply a grieving model to work with families in a hospice environment and suggest strategies for self-care. Explain how you, as a social worker, might apply the grieving model you selected to your work with families in a hospice environment. o Explain why you selected to use the grieving model you selected versus other models of grief. Please select a grieving model. Identify components of the grieving model that you think might be difficult to apply to your social work practice. Explain why you anticipate these challenges. Identify strategies you might use for your own self care as a social worker dealing with grief counseling. Explain why these strategies might be effective. Support your Assignment with specific references to the resources. Be sure to provide full APA citations for your references.

Voluntary and Involuntary Commitment Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners (PMHNP)may find themselves working in a wide variety of settingseach having their own unique challenges and inherent legal issues. For instance, what do you do in your state of practice when you are providing a therapy/treatment session and a client reports active suicidal ideation? What do you do if you are covering inpatient psychiatric consults and are called to see a patient in the ICU who overdosed on prescription medication requiring intubation? What do you do if you are a PMHNP on an inpatient unit and a client who admitted themselves on a voluntary basis suddenly states that they have decided to sign themselves out of the hospital so that they can go home to kill themselves? These are just some of the legal questions that PMHNPs must know the answers to specific to their state of licensure/practice. In this Assignment, you investigate your states laws (MARYLAND) concerning voluntary and involuntary commitment. You also analyze a case to determine if the client is eligible for involuntary commitment. Scenario: You are a PMHNP (Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners) working in a large intercity hospital. You receive a call from the answering service informing you that a stat consult has been ordered by one of the hospitalists in the ICU. Upon arriving in the ICU, you learn that your consult is a 14 year old male who overdosed on approximately 50 Benadryl (diphenhydramine hydrochloride) tablets in an apparent suicide attempt. At the scene, a suicide note was found indicating that he wanted to die because his girlfriends parents felt that their daughter was too young to be dating. The client stated in the suicide note that he could not live without her and decided to take his own life. Although he has been medically stabilized and admitted to the ICU, he has been refusing to talk with the doctors or nurses. The hospital staff was finally able to get in touch with the clients parents (using contact information retrieved from the 14 year olds cell phone). Unbeknown to the hospital staff, the parents are divorced, and both showed up at the hospital at approximately the same time, each offering their own perspectives on what ought to be done. The clients father is demanding that the client be hospitalized because of the suicide, but his mother points out that he does not have physical custody of the child. The clients mother demands that the client be discharged to home with her stating that her sons actions were nothing more than a stunt and an attempt at manipulating the situation that he didnt like. The clients mother then becomes nasty and informs you that she works as a member of the clerical staff for the state board of nursing, and if you fail to discharge her child right now she will make you sorry. How would you proceed? Objectives Evaluate clients for voluntary commitment Evaluate clients for involuntary commitment based on state laws Recommend actions for supporting parents of clients not eligible for involuntary commitment Recommend actions for treating clients not eligible for involuntary commitment To Prepare for this Paper Review the Learning Resources concerning voluntary and involuntary commitment.

Can concepts be violent in (International Relations discipline)?You will discuss whether concepts can be violent by mapping out the genealogy of liberalism. You will demonstrate how liberalism is made and powered by relations of colonial violence and imperial dominance (i.e. 1492 conquest, racial contract, neoliberal globalization) to support the argument that the concept of liberalism is inherently racist, exclusivist and thus violent against non – europeans. You will discuss the bodies of knowledge of liberalism that though solely expresses eurocentric historical-experiences and knowledges and used as a universal empirical validated knowledge while the intellectual and cultural contributions of Non-europeans arbitrarly made invsibible, marginalized, silenced. This project is thus deeply epistemological, and the method, as much philosophical as expository. The peril of using concepts is that it subjugates and marginalizes other knowledges and thus have no representation of how how others) ( noneuropeams) define their social world which is a form of epistemic violence. Using concepts in international relations can therefore be violent concepts in its effect of potential marginilization, invalidation, and make invisible others knowledges. Knowledges and truth is relative not universal.Violent can be understood as epistemological injustices where other cultures, knowledge and believe systems lack or have no representation (in concepts) at all. Epistemology encompasses the issues of knowledge related to truth, belief and justification. Abstract in additional files
