Community Trauma assessment

Personal crisis: On February 14, 2018, a mass shooting occurred when 19-year-old Nikolas Cruz opened fire on students and staff at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School, part of the Miami metropolitan area, Parkland, Florida, killing 17 people and injuring 18 others.

Purpose

1. To apply principles of community trauma/crisis/disaster assessment in your local community

2. To consider ground-level interventions that a PMHNP can apply in a community emergency/disaster situation

Instructions

1. Select a recent crisis/disaster event that occurred in your local area. Briefly describe the event.

  • The event should be a DSM type of traumatic event that occurred in your local community. This could include, but is not limited to: natural disasters, mass shootings, terrorist attacks, or the death of a local figure that was traumatic to the community (example: murder of J.F.K. would be ok b/c threat to the nation, fear of more attacks, etc. Death of Elvis Presley not ok – upsetting and personally devastating, yes. Traumatic, no.)
  • Remember that just because something is really difficult does not automatically make it a trauma. Adverse life events are not the same as trauma. 
  • The event must have occurred in your local community and in your lifetime where you were old enough to witness the impact that the event had on the community. If you cannot think of something from your town, move up to something in the next biggest town or something in your state. 

2. Use the following questions to reflect on the event:

Reaction – What was the community reaction to the event? Or, did you see strong reactions in individuals?

Source – What was the source of that reaction? Why was it so difficult? – The source of the reaction is often the emotions that are underlying. Are they acting out of fear or rage? Are they caring for the individuals that were harmed because the community is so close and full of love? 

Implications – What did this mean for the individual or the community? How was the community changed by this event? What were the outcomes of this event?

3. Let's say that you were a PMHNP at the time that this event occurred. Develop a plan for intervention.  As a PMHNP, what could you do to positively affect this situation, at the individual and community level?

  • Your plan should include ground-level interventions that the PMHNP could perform in the weeks following the traumatic event. Will you offer therapy or support groups? Education? Is there a specific program that you would start to relieve the immediate needs following the event? Volunteer with disaster relief?
  • Use the disaster response resources in the module for some initial ideas, but you can expand beyond this if appropriate for your scenario. 
  • This is NOT a work on social issues or policy change. Although these are important issues, the purpose of this work is to focus on the immediate needs after a crisis or disaster. Your plan should not be about advocating for policy change. We're looking for ground-level interventions that you can do immediately. 

4. Total assignment should be minimum 2 pgs in essy style with APA format. Cite references as needed, but not required. 

    Journal Entry Week 1

        • How was this information helpful as an APRN to your learning on substance use disorders?

          The purpose statement describes the goal of the study and includes the following elements: the purpose of the study, the subjects/population who will participate in the study, the geographic location of the study, and the research methodology used in the study.

          Sample Purpose Statement

          The purpose of this proposed qualitative exploratory study is to explore why caregivers do not practice good self-care and to explore barriers preventing good self-care practices. Ten caregivers from Dallas, Texas, caring for partners with breast cancer will participate in semi-structured interviews. The purpose of the interviews is to understand why caregivers do not practice good self-care and to describe possible barriers preventing good self-care practices. Results of the study could encourage caregivers to implement good self-care practices to avoid becoming physically and psychologically ill.

          To complete the Purpose Statement, answer the following questions:

          Purpose of the Study

          The problem in a doctoral dissertation is the most critical component of the study. The problem explains the rationale and validates the importance of the study. Below are the steps for writing a problem statement.

          · Step 1: Provide background information.

          · Step 2: State the problem.

          · Step 3: Provide scholarly support for the problem.

          · Step 4: Indicate the potential benefit of addressing the problem.

          At the end of this guide, you will create your own problem statement.

          Sample Problem Statement

          Breast cancer and the harsh treatment for the disease affects not only patients but their caretakers. While caring for a breast cancer patient, caregivers face physical and mental challenges while continuing to assume significant caretaking responsibilities. Caregiving often becomes a full-time responsibility that can last for many years. In the instance of a person with breast cancer, their partner is often the primary caregiver. A majority of caregivers report that caregiving is a burden physically, psychologically, economically, socially, and personally (LeSeure & Chongkham-ang, 2015). The problem is caregivers have a demanding and exhausting caretaking schedule, resulting in failure to practice good self-care (LeSeure & Chongkham-ang, 2015). According to Family Caregiving Alliance (2018) many caregivers are aware their own good health means providing better care for the patient, but often feel guilty when choosing themselves first. As a result of failing to take care of themselves, caregivers often become psychologically and physically ill, reducing the ability to care for their ailing partner (LeSeure & Chongkham-ang, 2015). Gaining caregivers’ perspectives on barriers preventing good self-care could lead to the development of interventions and resources for caregivers to begin practicing good self-care.

          Breaking It Down Step by Step

          Provide Background Information

          Briefly introduce the problem to provide context for the reader.

          Example: Breast cancer and the harsh treatment for the disease affects not only patients but their caretakers. While caring for a breast cancer patient, caregivers face physical and mental challenges while continuing to assume significant caretaking responsibilities. Caregiving often becomes a full-time responsibility that can last for many years. In the instance of a person with breast cancer, their partner is often the primary caregiver. A majority of caregivers report caregiving is a burden physically, psychologically, economically, socially, and personally (LeSeure & Chongkham-ang, 2015).

          State the Problem

          State the problem, including the consequence(s) of the problem. Remember: Without a consequence, you don’t have a problem; you have a situation.

          The problem is [state the problem], resulting in [state the consequence].

          Example: The problem is caregivers have a demanding and exhausting caretaking schedule, resulting in failure to practice good self-care (LeSeure & Chongkham-ang, 2015).

          Provide Scholarly Support for the Problem

          Support the problem with literature illustrating the consequences of the problem.

          Example: According to Family Caregiving Alliance (2018), many caregivers are aware their own good health means providing better care for the patient, but often feel guilty when choosing themselves first. As a result of failing to take care of themselves, caregivers often become psychologically and physically ill, reducing the ability to care for their ailing partner (LeSeure & Chongkham-ang, 2015).

          Indicate the Potential Benefit of Addressing the Problem

          Indicate potential benefits to people, organizations, society, etc. of addressing the problem.

          Example: Gaining caregivers’ perspectives on barriers preventing good self-care could lead to the development of interventions and resources for caregivers to begin practicing good self-care.
