The importance of assessment in the development of a treatment plan cannot be overestimated. The need for assessment must be conducted at the beginning of treatment in order to have data with which to gauge patient progress during treatment or upon its completion.

For this assignment, students will refer to Ch. 2 in the e-textbook. Use well-organized paragraphs and in your own words explain the assessment process. You will submit in a composition format, double-spaced, using a minimum of 3 pages.  You are free to use materials from the chapter and other external sources to support your response. This assignment must be submitted in an APA format. Include a reference page.

Part I

1) Explain the process of assessment and include three or more of the basic questions used to gather information from the client.

2) Discuss the key objectives and goals for the clinical interview; include structured, unstructured, and semi-structured interview protocols. Which clinical interview uses the Diagnostic and Statical Manual for the patient?

3) Review the Guidelines for Multicultural Clinical Interview. Discuss at least three guidelines that would be best suitable when assessing clients who migrate from another country and are not familiar with American culture.

How would you use this opportunity to exercise cultural competence?

Part II

Watch the video attached entitled, “Beating Opioid Addiction: Joy’s Story”. You have been assigned to Joy’s as her Substance Abuse Counselor. She has been referred to you due to her struggle with unemployment as a result of the pandemic. The stress and anxiety of the horrific events surrounding COVID-19 and losing her best friend to the virus has caused her to a relapse.

Use the Rapid Reference 2.2 outline for a Recommended Semi-structured Clinical Interview and prepare a treatment assessment plan for Joy. Complete all areas of the assessment, even if your response is “N/A”. Your response to Part II should be formatted as an actual assessment plan.
