Week 9 Case Study: Gender Identity – Transgender – Gender Dysphoria

Week 9 Obstacles to Care TGNC (Transgender Non-Conforming) Sam to Samantha (Pseudo-names)

Sam to Samantha

Sam starting coming out and questioning his gender identity in high school wearing full makeup to school. He was interested in fashion design. He started cross dressing in high school as well. His mom was incarcerated for drugs when he was 10 years old and had limited contact with her until he was an adult. His father remarried shortly after that and him and his new wife were members of conservative Christian church which did not accept or support the LGBT community. When he left home his parents had a difficult time accepting his changing look and full make up, but were relieved he was not living with them or in the community because they were ashamed and embarrassed by him. He moved to NYC and got a job at one of the leading cosmetics companies and was one of their top performers. At night he MC’d the drag shows in the New York City for years. He was in a relationship with a man who was beginning to medically transition, Sam decided he did not want to go through with the full surgery and began to identify himself as non-binary. That is when he changed his name from Sam to Samantha and wanted to be addressed as “They” or “Them”. Them did not want to be called “his son” by his father, which created a rift between them. Their father has never accepted Them as a transgender person. Them is now in his late 30’s, in a long-term relationship, Their religion is Wiccan, and has limited contact with family except for an aunt who accepts Them unconditionally. How could you provide support to Samantha and educate Samantha’s family on Their Transgender/Non-Conforming/Non binary identity?

Primary mental health needs of transgender people

Transgender and gender nonconforming people, in general, have three types of need for mental health.

a. Exploration of gender identity. This includes determining exactly what one’s gender identity is, coming to terms with this gender identity, self-acceptance and individuation, and exploring individual–level ways to actualize this identity in the world. This may also include preparation and assessment for various gender affirming treatments and procedures.

b. Coming out and social transition. This includes coming out to family, friends, and coworkers, dating and relationships, and developing tools to cope with being transgender in a sometimes transphobic world.

c. General mental health issues, possibly unrelated to gender identity. The variety of mental health concerns experienced by transgender people include mood disorders, generalized anxiety, substance abuse, and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).

Discussion week 6 Initial Response

Telehealth is a trend that has been evolving for several years and recent events have become a predominant use in healthcare visits.Telehealthis a potential tool to deliver health care and decrease exposure risk (Goodman-Casanova et al., 2020).Telehealth is a tool that people with limited resources have to access healthcare when they otherwise would not have been able to.As defined by theAmerican Telemedicine Association (ATA)“telemedicine is the use of medical information exchanged from one site to another via electronic communications to improve a patient’s clinical health status” (What is Telehealth, 2020).

A remote system means the usual methods of counter-checking are missing. The identity of both, the patient as well as the provider, may be unclear to each other. There are security issues related to patient data especially of the patient’s personal information. Lastly, distance can remain a barrier for effective education and training of remote staff, posing a threat to evidence-based up-to-date delivery of care(Maeder et al., 2016). As well there areother disadvantages toTeladoc such as the ability of a physician to do a hands-on assessment there is also the need for thepatient to have the readiness and ability to learn in this manner.On the other hand, there are many potential benefits thattelehealth has to offer.One of these benefitscanbe ongoing monitoring for patients in their homes instead of an observation hospital stay. Furthermore,on-demand remote medical care via telephone and video conferencing technology giving patients the opportunity to speak with aphysicianthat can diagnose problems such as respiratory infections, flu, allergy, or skin issues anytime or place increasingaccess to healthcare while lowering costs.

Telehealth will give aquicker,cost-effective, and more accessiblecare. Having 24/7 direct access to healthcare willenhance patient control, autonomy, and overall healththis will contribute to improvements in patientoutcomes, efficiencies, and data management.

Kyle Johnson RE: Discussion – Week 6COLLAPSE

Healthcare technology is constantly advancing and improving the way health care is delivered. The goal with a lot of healthcare trends is to make patient health information readily available such as with the electronic health record, patient portal systems, and monitoring devices such as the Apple Watch with technologies capable of performing an EKG. One of the biggest health care trends was the creation of the electronic health record (EHR). The EHR contains patient information from demographics to health issues. The EHR increased the portability of patient health information from facility to facility (HealthIT.gov, 2019). The EHR also helped to make finding patient health information easier on health care workers when looking for focused information instead of having to read through a paper chart (Laureate Education, 2018). Even with the many benefits that the EHR offers some facilities still use paper charting. For example, Catawaba Hospital in Virginia, a state psychiatric facility, still uses paper charting.

One down fall to the EHR is not all EHRs can communicate with each other (Palma, n.d.). This makes it hard for physicians to follow patients throughout their life span unless the patient reports that they had a visit to urgent care or the hospital. For psychiatric visits, patients might not even want their psychiatric records associated with their health records, especially with substance abuse. The electronic record allows physicians to be more detailed to prove the need for a higher level of billing, but this can make documenting time-consuming (Palma, n.d.). HIPAA violations are also a possibility with EHR such as wanting to look into family members’ care.

One potential security risk associated with the EHR would be data breaches. Potential hackers or non-law abiding citizens might seek to gain access to the EHR to gain personal information for identity fraud (IPRO, 2018). This can be prevented by only accessing the EHR on secure networks, and not giving out your user credentials. In 1996 the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act was created to protect patient information (HHS.gov, 2013). This law ensures the safety and security of patient information holding those who break the law accountable with fines or jail time.

Benefits to the EHR include portability, accessibility, and improved quality of patient care. The EHR allows access to patient information anywhere in the healthcare facility to those with access. The EHR increases communication throughout the healthcare team allowing notes from the night team to be viewed by the day team increasing patients’ quality of care. The EHR contributes to big data leading to better patient outcomes. A nursing informatics specialist can use this data to create new technology that can be lifesaving.

The EHR continues to be a huge impact in healthcare and nursing practice. This increases communication between nursing staff and allows for a place to document care provided by nurses. It also allows for information to be captured and shared with patients in the form of a patient portal system. This allows patients to be a part of their health care. The EHR was a great starting point for other technologies such as transmitters that sends vital signs from the machine into the EHR.
