Mrs. T. is a 62-year-old woman who immigrated from Taiwan with her husband to rejoin their son who moved to the United States for a job eight years ago. Mrs. T. had a difficult time adjusting to life in a new country but was very happy to be reunited with her son and his wife, who are expecting a baby. Mrs. T. only speaks Mandarin and she moved to a neighborhood with a high concentration of Chinese speaking immigrants, which was helpful in acclimating.
About six months after moving, Mr. T. unexpectedly passed away. Her son’s job transferred him to a city two hours away and very soon after, he and his wife had their baby. Mrs. T. loves the new baby very much, but she feels they have no room in their new life for her. She doesn’t want to move from the neighborhood where she can speak her native language, and she is feeling very sad and alone.
Mrs. T. says she doesn’t feel like doing much of anything and says nothing brings her happiness anymore. She hasn’t been sleeping well and says she spends most of the day in bed watching Chinese television. She is not eating much and has lost about 10 lbs.
Her son rearranged the furniture in her home to improve the feng shui. He would like her to see an acupuncturist and a Chinese herbal medicine specialist in her neighborhood to restore balance to her body.
For your initial post, use the biopsychosocial formulation grid system below to formulate your diagnosis and develop a comprehensive treatment plan for the case scenario.

You will discuss the interview strategy that you used to collect information. Your interview strategy should be supported by citations from the literature. Additionally, you will start laying the foundation for your Interdisciplinary Plan Proposal (Assessment 3) by researching potential change theories, leadership strategies, and collaboration approaches that could be relevant to issue you have identified.

You are working as a psychiatric nurse practitioner in an outpatient setting. A 72-year-old Asian female is scheduled today for an initial intake. She broke her hip and was in rehab for six weeks. While she was living at the nursing home, she had restraints applied due to her attempts to remove the dressing on her hip. Her son is with her during the intake because, at times, she presents as disoriented. The chief complaint follows: “It has been difficult to come to see you in the office. My spiritual beliefs will not allow me to take medication every day.”
What are the therapeutic concerns regarding the need to establish a relationship with this elder?
What factors will you consider regarding the plan of care? Be sure to address the potential for the patient to become uncooperative (i.e., needing restraints)
What are the cultural, ethical, and spiritual concerns you need to keep in mind?
How would you arrive at a diagnosis (including a differential diagnosis) and the possible need for medication genetic testing (include specific medication options)?
