Critical Exploration of a Chosen Mental Disorder

The goal of this task is for students to critically explore a selected mental disorder/mental health concern and plan for safe and effective care of a person experiencing this illness.

Substance/Medication Induced Psychotic Disorder

You will need to critically explore the disorder, paying attention to the prevalence of the disorder and any gender differences. Ensure that you use the DSM-5-TR (APA, 2022) as the foundation for this critical exploration, however, you will need to paraphrase to show your understanding. Consider all signs and symptoms, contributing risks and any ongoing risks that are associated with the disorder. You will then need to consider what the most effective pathway of care for this person would look like, taking into consideration the setting in which this care and treatment could be provided. Ensure you think about care and treatment using a biopsychosocial approach and consider how the recovery-oriented model of care and trauma-informed care principles can influence this care.
