Psychosocial Integrity – Part 1

Today we really begin our next content segment and part one of Psychosocial Integrity

We’ll cover the following:

Abuse/Neglect
Chemical and Other Dependencies/Substance Use Disorders
Sensory/Perceptual Alterations

Abuse and Neglect –

Saunders – page 1033 has a small section about abuse.
Page 1037 talks about abuse of the elderly.

A great overview – https://www.registerednursing.org/nclex/abuse-neglect/

Need more – here is a great lecture series – it’s a bit long but has some great information.

Chemical and Other Dependencies/Substance Use Disorders

Chapter 70 of Saunders (Page 1019) talks about Addiction.
Page 1020 – starts talking about substance abuse disorders – and goes to the end of the chapter.

Here is a great video about substance use disorders (with nurses) https://www.ncsbn.org/333.htm
