Cognitive Reframing - Technique to let patients look at situations from different perspectives.

• Helps with self talk and behavior
• Helps with narratives about ourselves

This solution based therapy focuses on trying to get people active and engaged with life even when depressed.

It is important to help patients experience those little positive events. These events can help people get back on track.

This is all about solution based therapy. We need concrete ways of fixing our problems.

Vagueness is a cognitive avoidance strategy. It is a way to avoid digging deep.

It is safer for our feelings to stay vague, but that is not where we need to improve.

These highlight cases where you can treat patients without their consent.

1. Irresponsible people with communicable diseases (e.g. Tuberculosis)

2. Psychiatry patients that pose an immediate threat to themselves and/or those around them.

Animals can have psychiatric issues as well.

Examples include:

• Dolphins that self-mutilate when in captivity
• Horses that can get pathologically compulsive
• Brides that obsess

Humans are the only ones that develop schizophrenia

What can be learned from this case?

• Carefully plan follow up plans with patients (general suggestion about follow up can be enough)
• Ask patient for family information to help them get involved in the follow up process and help increase compliance.

Consider:

• Giving the specific name of a provider to follow up with
• How to contact the facility,
• See if who you provided/recommended is avaliable to take the patient
• Help patient make the appointment or make it on their behalf (with permission)

The test for proximate cause "is whether it was reasonably foreseeable at the time that the negligent act occurred that would result in the consequent harms"

In this case, Dr. Liptzin, having seen Williamson having no history of violence or anything else, could not reasonably foresee that Williamson was going to do something illegal.

This is the case where it was initially ruled that the psychiatrist was the proximate cause for the patient, Williamson, to commit murder. Subsequent higher courts overturned this decision.
