SECTION 2: CASE STUDY (Mapping matrix indicated as CS)

Bill is a 45 year old man 75kg brought into the Emergency Department by his sister after intentionally lacerating one arm and his neck while heavily intoxicated on alcohol.

Bill is separated from his wife and children, he has a history of domestic abuse due to his alcohol consumption and often is verbally abusive to his neighbors. Bill is currently unemployed due to the recent loss of his drivers license for Driving Under the Influence (DUI). His sister lives 4 houses away from Bill and seems to be the only person that he will talk to, she is often away and only sees Bill occasionally.

He is seen in the Emergency Department by the Mental Health Assessment Team (MHAT). Following assessment, Bill is admitted as a voluntary patient to the Mental Health Unit for assessment, observation and monitoring. Bill appears malnourished, dehydrated, and unwashed. He is flushed, ataxic and smells strongly of alcohol. His speech is slurred. He has a productive cough. He is given a provisional diagnosis of Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and Substance Abuse (Alcohol).

A few hours later, Bill attempts to leave the Mental Health Unit without a medical review or authority. He becomes verbally and physically threatening toward nursing staff who are trying to persuade him to stay and be treated. Security is called and they physically restrain Bill when he lashes out at them and the nurses.

Following further assessment by the Medical Officer, Bill is placed on an involuntary Treatment Authority (TA) under the Mental Health Act 2016 (Qld). By this time, he appears physically exhausted, sobbing and stating that he wants to die.

List 4 negative behaviors that greatly impacts his family and friends

2bBill could feel stigmatised by having a mental illness. Outline three (3) common misconceptions about mental illness which is reinforced by Bills behaviour. (Word limit max 40-60 words and reference)

2 part question

State the myth and refer back to the case study Bills behaviour that reinforces the myth

For example

People with mental illness are violent and dangerous. Bill was verbally abusive and has attacked the medical staff

So a myth is a stigmatising statement that is not true, however, it doesnt help that Bill reinforces this behaviour

Not all patients with mental illness are violent. People who are sick, in pain and frustrated can become violent. Thats the truth. So a myth has a seed of truth but is blown out of proportion to stigmatise or devalue a person who is vulnerable. Just like stereotyping
