Case Study Rebecca Brown
Rebecca Brown had a severe vehicle accident that left her paralysed. A spinal cord damage
called paraplegia renders the lower limbs paralysed. Her disease is quite severe and might
have a lot of negative effects. due to the accident. Rebecca has urgently needed to
Her incapacity suggests that she is dependent on others since she is both mentally and
physically helpless. This may result in Rebecca's inability to adjust to some proactive duties
like exercising, taking walks, and relocating. This may indicate that Rebecca is unlucky
because exercise should be done regularly. Rebecca's true handicap may be determined
using demonstrative approaches that include -beams. In an urgent care clinic, an x-beam
technologist or a radiologic technologist frequently performs an x-beam. X-rays are used to
examine the human body's bones, joints, and soft tissues. As Rebecca has a shattered spine,
this will assist the technologist understand the severity of her impairment. Rebecca will be
exposed to a type of radiation during the cycle that will travel through her body and take
images of her spine.
She will be forced to lay down, even on her back, as a result of this. The technologist will
then be able to gauge just how profoundly Rebecca has been affected. But an x-ray won't
usually reveal a crack, and if it does, Rebecca needs to go through a CT scan. Although a CT
check gives detailed and better photos, this is similar to a -beam. Rebecca will also need an
X-ray filter to help distinguish between her organs, tissues, and other bodily parts. Rebecca
will benefit from this since it will allow the expert to learn more about her nerves.
Furthermore. Rebecca could also benefit from physical therapy.
She will benefit from this since it is used to address conditions that are specific to her, such
as injuries, back pain, strains, acting problems, and decreased flexibility. Five GCSEs in
grades A–C are required for entry into the radiologic technology programme. This includes
two or three A levels in addition to the main areas of English, Math, and Science. After that,
someone interested in a career in this field will need a degree that has been approved by
the Wellbeing and Care Experts Gathering (HCPC). Rebecca must attend a school with
additional requirements because of her mental impairment. Fortunately, she has the ability
to obtain all the support and assistance she requires, so this will undoubtedly have an
impact on her. She will benefit the school because she will feel involved and have the
opportunity to study. Additionally, having the opportunity to get coordinated attention may
mean that Rebecca will feel more confident about her learning. However, the institution
could struggle, much like a college, to adapt to a new environment. Making them read older
might be the diagnostic way employed to determine Rebecca's academic disadvantage. She
will gain from this since it will confirm whether she have the skills of an 8-year-old. Rebecca
, could be required to take a knowledge test, a mental exercise designed to measure a variety
of mental abilities including thinking, perception, and judgement. This will assist her in
receiving the appropriate as well as necessary assistance. Rebecca's disability may allow her
to feel unhappiness on the inside since she knows she is actually powerless and needs
people. Additionally, the fact that Rebecca's family is struggling financially and working long
hours for little pay might potentially mean that they don't care about her, which can have a
negative impact on her. Rebecca can feel cut off from the rest of society while she is not in
school because she will realise that there are some things that others can accomplish that
she is unable to.
In any event, Rebecca could experience a sense of belonging when attending school because
there are others who require additional necessities, just like her. To determine if she is
having mental health problems based on feeling alone, this would make her uncomfortable,
which would be detrimental to her welfare. The DSM handbook could be used by a doctor
or health advisor. Physicians and experts examine mental illnesses using the Indicative and
Observable Manual of Mental Problems. When it has been determined that she exhibits
dysfunctional behaviour, appropriate mental aid, such as medication, therapy, and a
supportive community, can be provided.
Case Study: Ben Grace Study of adults
Ben Grace, a 52-year-old man. It has been discovered that Ben has type 2 diabetes and
Down's syndrome. Ben has been profoundly affected in four different ways, including
cognitively, emotionally, and socially. Because of his problems, Ben is unable to adjust to
several daily activities, which makes him dependent on others.
The DSM handbook may be used by AGP or a health adviser. Clinicians and psychiatrists
utilise the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders to identify psychiatric
disorders. The extra chromosome in the patient's cell that causes Down's Syndrome is
typically not acquired; it is a disjointed hereditary mix-up that occurs at conception. Pre-
birth screenings and demonstration tests may be used to differentiate it during pregnancy,
or after.
First-hand perception of birth and hereditary analysis. However, while a screening test can't
give you a definitive answer, it can tell you how probable it is that your kid has Down's
syndrome. You might decide to undergo further testing that will enable you to determine
for sure if your child has Down's syndrome. These tests consist of: Examining the chorionic
villus entails removing and evaluating a sample of placental cells. the organ that supplies
the mother's unborn kid with blood. This is often provided when there is a significant risk
that your kid may have a chromosomal or inherited issue that might be caused by
