Group Typology

As a clinical social worker it is important to understand group typology in order to choose the appropriate group method for a specific population or problem. Each type of group has its own approach and purpose. Two of the more frequently used types of groups are task groups and intervention groups.

For this Assignment, review the “Cortez Multimedia” case study, and identify a target behavior or issue that needs to be ameliorated, decreased, or increased. In a 2- to 4-page report, complete the following:

  • Choose either a treatment group or task group as your intervention for Paula Cortez.
  • Identify the model of treatment group (i.e., support, education, teams, or treatment conferences).
  • Using the typologies described in the Toseland & Rivas (2017) piece, describe the characteristics of your group. For instance, if you choose a treatment group that is a support group, what would be the purpose, leadership, focus, bond, composition, and communication?
  • Include the advantages and disadvantages of using this type of group as an intervention.

Case Study:

Case Study Posting Requirements

  1. Make sure all of the topics in the case study have been      addressed.
  2. Cite at least three sources; journal articles,      textbooks or evidenced-based websites to support the content.
  3. All sources must be within 5 years.
  4. Do not use .com, Wikipedia, or up-to-date, etc., for      your sources.

Case Study 1

Structure and Function of the Respiratory System

Brad is 45 years old and has been working as a coal cutter in a mine for the last 25 years. He likes the job because it pays well and the same mine had employed his father. Like many of his colleagues, Brad has had problems with a chronic cough. He has avoided his annual checkups for fear that he will be told he has “black lung,” or coal worker’s pneumoconiosis. The disease causes fibrosis, decreased diffusing capacity, and permanent small airway dilation. In later stages, pulmonary capillaries, alveoli, and airways are destroyed.

  1. How can the disease described above create a mismatch      between ventilation and perfusion? Use your understanding of alveolar dead      space and physiologic shunt to explain your answer.
  2. Individuals with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease      have more difficulty exhaling than inhaling. Why is this so?
  3. In general terms, what mechanisms in lung disease can      affect diffusing capacity across alveolar membranes? Use the Fick law to      explain your answer.

Case Study 2

Respiratory Tract Infections, Neoplasms, and Childhood Disorders

Patricia was called at work by a woman at the local daycare center. She told Patricia to come and pick up her son because he was not feeling well. Her son, three-and-a-half-year-old Marshall, had been feeling tired and achy when he woke up. While at daycare, his cheeks had become red and he was warm to touch. He did not want to play with his friends, and by the time Patricia arrived, he was crying. Later that afternoon, Marshall’s condition worsened. He had fever, chills, a sore throat, runny nose, and a dry hacking cough. Suspecting Marshall had influenza, Patricia wrapped him up and took him to the community health care clinic.

  1. Why did Marshall’s presentation lead Patricia to think      he had influenza and not a cold? Why is it important to medically evaluate      and diagnose a potential influenza infection?
  2. Describe the pathophysiology of the influenza virus.      Outline the properties of influenza A antigens that allow them to exert      their effects in the host.
  3. Marshall may be at risk at contracting secondary      bacterial pneumonia. Why is this so? Explain why cyanosis may be a feature      associated with pneumonia.

Case Study 3

Disorders of Ventilation and Gas Exchange

Emmanuel and his mother live in an urban community housing complex. The building is worn down and dirty from the urban dust, cockroaches, and mold. Emmanuel is five years of age and has suffered from asthma for the last two years. One evening, his mother poured him some milk and put him to bed. Shortly afterward, Emmanuel woke up wheezing and coughing. As he gasped for air, he became more and more anxious. His mother ran for his inhaler, but he was too upset and restless to use it. Emmanuel’s skin became moist with sweat, and as he began to tire, his wheezing became quieter. His mother called 911 and waited anxiously for the ambulance to arrive.

  1. Emmanuel uses a corticosteroid inhaler for the      management of his asthma. What is the mechanism of action of this drug?      How is its action different from the β2-agonist inhalants?
  2. Why does someone with severe asthma become physically      fatigued during a prolonged attack? What are the physiological events that      occur during an attack?
  3. One of the complications of respiratory fatigue is the      development of hypercapnia. How does the body compensate for an increase      in CO2? What are the effects of hypercapnia on the central nervous system?

Negotiation Role Play Question

Exercise  23   SALARY  NEGOTIATIONS

 

NEGOTIATION  7e   LEWICKI  ▪  BARRY  ▪  SAUNDERS

Confidential  Role  Information  for  Employee  Position  3B

You  are  the  Director  of  Mail  Order  Sales  for  the  Rapid  Golf  Equipment  Company,  and  have   held  that  job  for  two  years.    On  the  whole,  you  believe  that  you  have  done  a  satisfactory  job.  When   you  took  the  job  of  Director,  you  had  several  talks  with  your  boss  (the  Marketing  Vice  President).   The  two  of  you  were  able  to  work  out  an  informal  set  of  job  objectives  for  the  coming  year,  and   have  been  able  to  produce  a  good  record  against  each  of  these  criteria  -­‐  with  one  exception.    The   exception  is  a  major  one,  and  it  looms  as  the  biggest  stumbling  block  to  your  raise.

The  projects  that  you  have  been  working  on  have  been  Slingshot,  Fireball,  and   Thunderhead—all  different  lines  of  golf  balls,  gloves,  golf  bags  and  other  equipment.    These   projects  have  been  excellent  successes  and  have  exceeded  their  projected  growth  targets.  However,   one  of  your  other  objectives  was  to  develop  a  new  approach  for  selling  Rapid’s  Phoenix  line  (the   company’s  most  expensive  line  of  golf  equipment).    Phoenix  has  never  been  done  successfully  in  the   past,  so  you  pretty  much  had  to  start  over  from  scratch.    You  have  worked  hard  on  ways  to  improve   sales  in  the  Phoenix  line:  you  experimented  with  different  mailing  lists,  tried  discount  coupons,  free   shipping,  promotional  contests  that  featured  trips  to  Rapid’s  manufacturing  plants,  golf  package   weekends,  and  still  the  results  were  relatively  insignificant.  In  the  past  months  you  have  been   working  very  hard  on  Phoenix.    One  particular  new  appeal,  using  demonstrations  at  the  nation’s  top   golf  courses,  has  produced  better  results  than  most.    It’s  too  early  to  come  to  a  definite  conclusion   about  the  real  impact  on  Phoenix  sales;  further  testing  will  be  required,  but  the  signs  are  good   enough  to  be  optimistic.       You  know  your  boss  is  a  hard  negotiator  at  raise  time.    You  also  know  that  failure  to  achieve   a  breakthrough  on  Phoenix  will  make  it  easy  for  your  boss  to  deny  you  anything  but  the  most   nominal  raise.    But  you  have  not  told  your  boss  of  the  recent  results  with  the  new  list;  you  plan  to   use  the  result  of  the  new  promotion  to  counter  any  argument  raised  about  your  lack  of   performance  in  the  Phoenix  line.       You  plan  on  asking  for  a  $10,000  raise  (normally,  your  raises  have  been  5  -­‐  8  percent).  Your   current  compensation  has  a  base  salary  of  $75,000       Take  a  few  minutes  to  review  these  facts  and  then  devise  a  strategy  to  approach  your  boss   for  this  raise.
