Instructions
In this assignment, you will complete a comprehensive psychiatric assessment interview of an adult/older adult. You can use a patient you’ve seen in clinical or someone in your personal life. Your assessment should be comprehensive, and you should refer to course texts to inform items for inclusion in your assessment. Keep in mind that you will be responsible for covering those areas addressed in the reading assignments up to this point.
Students always ask for a template. Below is one that can be used to guide you in not forgetting any crucial information. There are further pieces of this assessment to include in the first column of this template. Make sure all points are addressed in each section.
At a minimum, 4 scholarly references should be included and cited in APA 7th Edition formatting. The references page should be set up similar to papers that are in full APA 7th edition formatting.
Note: Scholarly resources are defined as evidence-based practice, peer-reviewed journals; textbook (do not rely solely on your textbook as a reference); and National Standard Guidelines. Review assignment instructions, as this will provide any additional requirements that are not specifically listed on the rubric.
