Summary:

"In this training video, a group of clinicians and professional experts discuss the case of Mary Northern in 1970s Tennessee, which led to substantial change in social policy for treatment of the elderly and is referred to by adult protection agencies as one of the four "pioneer cases" that led to needed reform. This video takes a look back at the case and explores it from several different angles: the medical, legal, and mental health perspective. One clinician explores the complex defensive structure of a client whose decision-making is not easily understood by legal and medical personnel. In addition, you'll learn the importance of doing an accurate and complete assessment, and the interventions that happen as a result. By watching this video, you will learn about a pioneering case that led to substantial reform in elder care, and how it continues to be debated; understand the many lenses that inform decision making in elder care, and how the mental health perspective is utilized; and understand the importance of relationship building with regard to assessment. Intended for students and practitioners in clinical psychology, counseling, social work, and related health professions." Supplied by publisher.
