Part of the complexity arises from the deepening seriousness and complexity of questions, concerns, and problems service users present to us along with the multiple roles we play with the requirement to engage in inter professional practice with colleagues from a variety of allied professions. This all occurs within a context of conflicting directives from codes of ethics, legal requirements, agency policies with often inadequate or limited resources and service user needs and expectations. To assist in learning how to respond in an ethically thoughtful manner to this context, we have provided in this text decision making models, core concepts related to ethical practice, value clarification exercises, practice situations with inquiry questions and tasks to assist the reader to think through and become engaged with the ethical dimensions of the situations.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedical Books\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePsychology\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eTesting \u0026amp; Measurement\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Thomson Nelson","offers":[{"title":"Used - Acceptable","offer_id":45262710210750,"sku":"0176415270-5","price":3.24,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Used - Good","offer_id":45262710177982,"sku":"0176415270-4","price":37.97,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/517cRCHiDXL._SL500.jpg?v=1754102009"},{"product_id":"0205468829-psychological_testing_history-_principles-_and_applications5th_edition","title":"Psychological Testing: History, Principles, and Applications (5th Edition)","description":"\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe fifth edition of Psychological Testing provides detailed presentations on neuropsychological and geriatric assessment, the early uses and abuses of testing, assessment of learning disabilities, testing in special settings, race differences in IQ, and cheating on national group achievement tests.

The protection of a patient's right to decide, as well as the protection of incompetent patients from the potential harm of their decisions, rests largely on clinicians' abilities to judge patients' capacities to decide what treatment they will receive. However, confusing laws and the complicated ethical issues surrounding the concept of competence to consent have made the process of competence assessment intimidating for many clinicians. Health professionals—physicians, medical students, residents, nurses, and mental health practitioners—have long needed a concise guidebook that translates the issues for practice. That is what this book accomplishes. \u003cbr\u003eThis volume is the product of an eight-year study of patients' capacities to make treatment decisions—the most comprehensive research of its kind. The authors describe the place of competence in the doctrine of informed consent, analyze the elements of decision-making, and show how assessments of competence to consent to treatment can be conducted within varied general medical and psychiatric treatment settings. The book explains how assessments should be conducted and offers detailed, practice-tested interview guidelines to assist medical practitioners in this task. Numerous case studies illustrate real-life applications of the concepts and methods discussed. Grisso and Appelbaum also explore the often difficult process of making judgments about competence and describe what to do when patients' capacities are limited. \u003cbr\u003eA timely, practical handbook relevant to every medical specialty, Assessing Competence to Consent to Treatment will benefit a wide array of medical practitioners—including physicians, medical students, residents, nurses, and other allied health professionals—who need to assess the mental competence of patients in their everyday practice. It will also interest ethicists and moral philosophers, as well as geriatricians and clinical psychologists working with cognitively impaired patients.\u003c\/p\u003e Douglas E. Tucker \u003cp\u003eThis is a practical, clinician-oriented guide to the assessment of competence to consent to treatment. Its purpose is to provide some clarity and guidelines for caregivers in a complex and confusing area, in which the stakes can be enormous (often life-and-death) but the standards to be applied are often too abstract and inconsistent to be of much help. This book thus serves an important clinical need, and it meets its objective admirably. As stated in the title, this book was written for the broad group of physicians and other health professionals, but it will be particularly valuable for those working \"\"in the trenches\"\" in critical care, and geriatric and mental health settings. Both authors are well known and respected authorities in forensic mental health, and have written extensively on the capacity to make treatment decisions. The book is relatively small and short, and is not illustrated except for a half-dozen tables and a data collection form. It has only 37 references, but this is a deliberately succinct and carefully chosen list of pertinent, clinically useful sources. The appendix contains the format, procedure, and data recording form for the MacCAT-T (MacArthur Competence Assessment Tool-Treatment), a semistructured interview instrument developed by the authors and designed to systematically elicit and organize information about decision-making abilities. This is a very practical and useful book for any clinician who provides treatment to patients for whom competence to consent is an issue. It is quite user-friendly, with convenient chapter summaries and many illustrative clinical vignettes. It will be more helpful to the busy practitioner facing real life treatmentdilemmas than to the ivory tower academic. It should be made available in medical school and hospital libraries, although many individuals will wish to purchase it (particularly if a less expensive softcover version is produced).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003eCategories:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMedical Books\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePsychology\u003cul class=\"category-tree\"\u003e\u003cli class=\"category-tree\"\u003eTesting \u0026amp; Measurement\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n","brand":"Oxford University Press","offers":[{"title":"Used - Acceptable","offer_id":46670080147646,"sku":"0195103726-5","price":24.47,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0640\/9689\/5166\/files\/71PVmb0RyCL.jpg?v=1775931404"},{"product_id":"1071824074-p_s_y_c_h_o_m_e_t_r_i_c_s_a_n_i_n_t_r_o_d_u_c_t_i_o_n","title":"PSYCHOMETRICS AN INTRODUCTION","description":"\n\u003cp\u003eProduct Description      \u003cbr\u003eIn this fully revised\u003cbr\u003eFourth Edition of\u003cbr\u003ePsychometrics: An Introduction, author R.
