This book was released on 2016 with total page 69 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background and Purpose: The burden of depression, from an economic and individual perspective, has significant implications for our society. Currently two-thirds of those diagnosed with depression receive treatment in primary care settings. Previous treatment models for depression have considered onsite mental health clinicians; however, numerous studies demonstrate the role of an advanced practice psychiatric nurse (APPN) in primary care settings. The purpose of this project was to examine and compare differences in patient satisfaction and level of depression in patients with major depression managed by primary care clinicians with those managed by an advanced practice nurse in the primary care setting. Methods: This study is a prospective cohort design that took place at El Pueblo Health Services, a Federally Qualified Health Center Look-Alike in Bernalillo, New Mexico. Twenty-four adults who self-reported with symptoms of major depressive disorder participated in an intervention that consisted of a psychosocial intake followed by a psychiatric evaluation and administration of the Beck Depression Inventory-II (BDI-II) and Client Satisfaction Questionnaire-8 (CSQ-8). The intervention included pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic treatment over a 3-month period for a minimum of four, or twice monthly, sessions for up to 3 months. A comparison group of 14 adults with major depression participated in care as usual with their primary care providers. Patients in both groups were administered the BDI-II and CSQ-8 at baseline and 3 months. Evaluation: Differences in the mean scores on the BDI-II and CSQ-8 between pre- and post-test in the intervention group were statistically significant compared with the comparison group that only demonstrated statistical significance on the CSQ-8 scores. In addition, preintervention and postintervention change scores on the BDI-II were statistically significant. However, there was a lack of statistical significance in the change scores on the CSQ-8. Clinical Implications and Recommendations: Results from this project highlight the effectiveness of an intervention consisting of pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic services provided by a psychiatric nurse practitioner in a sample of adults with major depression in a primary care setting.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Research has shown that a range of adult psychiatric disorders and mental health problems originate at an early age, yet the psychiatric symptoms of an increasing number of children and adolescents are going unrecognized and untreated—there are simply not enough child psychiatric providers to meet this steadily rising demand. It is vital that advanced practice registered nurses (APRNs) and primary care practitioners take active roles in assessing behavioral health presentations and work collaboratively with families and other healthcare professionals to ensure that all children and adolescents receive appropriate treatment. Child and Adolescent Behavioral Health helps APRNs address the mental health needs of this vulnerable population, providing practical guidance on assessment guidelines, intervention and treatment strategies, indications for consultation, collaboration, referral, and more. Now in its second edition, this comprehensive and timely resource has been fully updated to include DSM-5 criteria and the latest guidance on assessing, diagnosing, and treating the most common behavioral health issues facing young people. New and expanded chapters cover topics including eating disorders, bullying and victimization, LGBTQ identity issues, and conducting research with high-risk children and adolescents. Edited and written by a team of accomplished child psychiatric and primary care practitioners, this authoritative volume: Provides state-of-the-art knowledge about specific psychiatric and behavioral health issues in multiple care settings Reviews the clinical manifestation and etiology of behavioral disorders, risk and management issues, and implications for practice, research, and education Offers approaches for interviewing children and adolescents, and strategies for integrating physical and psychiatric screening Discusses special topics such as legal and ethical issues, cultural influences, the needs of immigrant children, and child and adolescent mental health policy Features a new companion website containing clinical case studies to apply concepts from the chapters Designed to specifically address the issues faced by APRNs, Child and Adolescent Behavioral Health is essential reading for nurse practitioners and clinical nurse specialists, particularly those working in family, pediatric, community health, psychiatric, and mental health settings. *Second Place in the Child Health Category, 2021 American Journal of Nursing Book of the Year Awards*
