Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs and Its Impact on Coexisting Needs
Discuss about the Development Of A Pragmatic Method For Reflection.
The experience of the coexisting condition has not been exceptional but common for the individuals. It has been found that mental illness rates are rapidly growing and affecting the individual with a disability of intellectuality, disorders of the autism spectrum, usage of drug and the alcohol, physical disability, injury or brain, homelessness and the dilemma of gambling. As suggested by Marengoni et al. (2016), the center for community health and the general practitioners are playing a crucial role for the recovery of people with the conditions of coexisting through offering the medical advice as well as assistance in mental and physical needs of health.
The mental illness of an individual can grow for many reasons such as economic issues, unemployment, physical as well as the social aspects. In the current case, Julie is however in need of a job to fulfill her desire of living independently. Therefore, the needs of Julie (Including the coexisting needs) can be gauzed appropriately through following the Maslow’s hierarchy of need. The following model of need is categorized into three important parts such as Self-actualization, esteem and love, safety and the physiological.
This section describes the impact of following parameters those can leave a huge impact on the rational behavior of an individual. The following parameters are Morality, Lack of creativity, spontaneity, the skill of solving a problem, lack of prejudice and the fact acceptance. The following factors address the needs for self-fulfillment. Through understanding the concern of Julie, it can be said missing of following factors are disrupting the mental wellbeing of Julie.
This is another very crucial point to be considered. The esteem and love relate to the self-esteem, self-confidence, the achievements, respecting others as well as respected by others in the society. On the other hand, some other crucial factors are sexual intimacy, love from family and the friendship also affects the mental state of an individual (Young et al. 2017). Therefore, it can be interpreted that the mental issue of Julie can be recovered from the family and friend love and belonging. Apart from that, it would be helpful for Julie in gaining the self-confidence, self-esteem as well as fulfilling her sexual intimacy. All the following parameters can be called the psychological needs of an individual.
The basic needs of an individual include the safety and psychological needs. The safety includes the security of the job, physical, morality, family as well as resources, own property and the health (So et al. 2014). On the other hand, physiological needs include breathing, water, the excretion, sex and the sleep as well as food and homeostasis. Therefore, through fulfilling the basic needs of an individual, the mental disorder can be rectified aptly. However, the basic needs of Julie were seen unachieved that can be called as another factor lead Julie to the mental problem.
Parameters Driving the Mental Wellbeing of Julie
By the viewpoint of Crowe and Salt (2015), identifying as well as prioritizing the needs of an individual can be tough. The capability of an individual with assistance needs to determine as well as can influence the ability to prioritize their needs. Moreover, the values of individual and their priorities might not be similar to others. It should be remembered that an individual owns the right for deciding their most valuable or important aspect. Consequently, the values and priorities of Julie might be different to others but the above section describes the general needs of an individual that can lead to the proper care or mental well-being of an individual.
The appropriateness and the effectiveness of standards of service delivery are evaluated through the governmental and non-governmental firms Kwok et al. (2016). The target of intended performance is outlined through the standards regarding any service. It has been found that the target of performance is based on the most suitable principles of practice for achieving the ideal service level. There are six national standards defines the level of services such as Rights, inclusion and the participation, Individual outcome, complaint and the feedback, access to service and the management of service.
The person-centered attribute refers to the support and the service centered on the individual with their strength, need, interest and the goals. Apart from that, it ensures the people with the disability leads as well as directs the services and the supports an individual uses (Saad et al. 2017).
The quality management refers to the processes, systems and other services an organization holds for monitoring, reviewing, planning and controlling for ensuring the level of service quality, support and the product (Li et al. 2017).
This attribute denotes the distinction between the services and the supports. For example, the National standards of Australia refer to the disability organization, agencies, and the service providers. It should also be kept in mind that an individual may use more than one service provider as per his or her own choices.
By the viewpoint of Walker and McAndrew (2015), the community service provider should adhere to the organizational procedures and the policies based on the state legislation as well as the commonwealth. Therefore, to follow the organizational procedures and the policies, there are general steps to be considered.
From the viewpoint of an organization, the following points should be considered while approaching the care of Julie.
- The authority for reporting
- When and how to form the report
- Who are the professional for informing the notification
- The procedure to review the Julie case through processing the notification
- the name, address and the age of the patient (Julie)
- name and the address of parents or guardian
- name and the age of sibling
- the language is spoken in the home
- notifying the guardian about forming the report
- awareness of the workers about the involvement of other agencies
- the key concern reasons
- relationship of the Julie with the workers
Evaluating Service Delivery Standards for Mental Health Care
It has been very crucial for the companies to store and maintain the data and information about the report and the entire practice (Pulcini et al. 2015). Moreover, the safeguard of patient safety has been a crucial face for the service providers to maintain the privacy of the patient. It can also be referred as the important step in preparing the report. The two basic safeguards are important to be considered as the physical safeguard and the technical safeguard.
- locking the filing cabinet as well as the unattended storage area
- securing the areas of stored information physically
- not storing the information in the public areas
- using the passcode for restricting the access to computers and regularly changing the passcode
- implementing the different level of access so that all the staffs cannot get the access to the entire information
- securing the transmission of information and data
- implementing the virus protection as well as the firewalls
However, it has been not very easy to evaluate the appropriateness of service regarding care of mental wellbeing, but the attempt is put together to deliver the best practice for the people with a mental health condition. The Australian government has set forth the line to referral process in the sectors in delivering the best practice of service through covering the following aspects (Kalsi et al. 2015).
The risk dignity refers to the self-determination and the autonomy of an individual for making own choices that include a choice of taking the risk in the life (Santiago et al. 2014).
Family, professionals and the friends
The significance of all three factors recognizes their role in the mental well-being of an individual. For instance, the word family itself includes the partners and other significant partners such as parents, sibling, child and another member of families.
The minimal restriction denotes the restriction and intervention of the private or public sector against the choice of an individual. It has been increased to the restriction level through evidence-based interferences.
Based on the opinion of Nilsson et al. (2017), to protect the privacy information, the government of Australia has approved the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth). Apart from that, the act has identified that 13 different APP (Australian Privacy Principle) that regulate how an organization should be engaged in managing the personal information of a patient or individual. Therefore, to access the information of a patient or individual, the permit should be approved from the different level, and it is applicable for all the professional and the personnel people.
Conclusion
The coexisting needs of an individual derived from the basic needs, self-fulfillment needs and the physiological needs. This report has significantly addressed the needs of Julie and determined the appropriate services for her. Apart from that, the assessment and referral process has also been evaluated to proceed further with the complete the report.
