Care And Treatment

Any contribution to medical psychology from M. Féré is likely to be of value, and this little book on the family treatment of the insane forms no exception. He belongs to the school which would treat the insane in the country with the advantage of being well occupied in farm labour or other ways. It is stated that the Conseil Général de la Seine has decided to place out in this way 400 inoffensive senile dements. With regard to this it is rather difficult to understand how this class of patients are suitable for this location, however desirable it may be to eliminate them from an ordinary asylum. Many references are made to England and Scotland by M. Féré. At present the family treatment of the insane may take the form of a colony annexed to an asylum; a free colony; or thirdly, as single patients. Of the first, Altscherbitz, near Leipsic, is a well-known example. Claremont (Oise), while carried on by the private enterprise of the brothers Labitte, has presented a successful instance of economy. The author especially mentions under this head the colony of Ilten, near Hanover, founded by Dr. Whrendorff.” The system of Ilten consists essentially in the extension of the surveillance of the establishment, to which the patients may be returned at the shortest notice, the doctor having his eye always upon them. They may besides receive there special care and treatment. This mode of treatment costs little, the maintenance of each patient amounting to 337.50 francs annually, without any building” (p. 19).

Care And Treatment

The aim of the study was to describe Swedish psychiatrists’ experiences of involving the family in the treatment of women with postpartum psychosis. A qualitative design was used, and semistructured qualitative research interviews were conducted with nine psychiatrists from the south of Sweden. Data were analysed using qualitative content analysis. Four categories were found:the family as a resource,the family as coworkers,preparing the family for the future, andthe family as a burden. The result showed that the psychiatrists considered the family to be a resource to which they devoted a great deal of care and effort. It was particularly important to involve the partner, informing about the course of the illness and the steps that need to be taken in the event of a relapse and reducing any guilt feelings. The psychiatrists instilled confidence and hope for a future of health and further child bearing. The family members’ limited understanding of the treatment may impede the involvement of the family. Conclusion of the study was that the goal for family involvement was to facilitate the women’s care and treatment. Further studies are needed to provide suggestions on how to develop family involvement in the care of women suffering from postpartum psychosis.

Background and aims – Five new species of Streptocarpus (Gesneriaceae) are described from D.R. Congo in connection with preparing the family treatment for the Flore d’Afrique centrale.Methods – Standard herbarium practices were applied.Key results – Streptocarpus malachiticola sp. nov. is related to S. compressus and S. goetzei while S. bampsii sp. nov., S. malaissei sp. nov., S. salesianorum sp. nov., and S. schaijesii sp. nov. are related to S. michelmorei and S. solenanthus. The differences with these species are discussed and distribution maps for the new taxa are presented. An identification key for all known acaulescent species from D.R. Congo, Rwanda, and Burundi is provided. The conservation status of new species is preliminarily assessed. All taxa are range-restricted in Upper Katanga and the assessments are as follows: S. malachiticola: EN B1+2ab(iii), S. bampsii: CR B2ab(iii), S. malaissei: EN B1+2ab(iii), S. salesianorum: CR B2ab(iii), and S. schaijesii: EN B2ab(iii). Streptocarpus malachiticola is found on metalliferous rocks while the remaining species are either epiphytes in gallery forests (S. bampsii) or occur on humid rocks in gallery forests.

This case discussion will explore the benefits of using a family treatment model in which a psychoanalytic couple therapy and an individual child therapy are conducted conjointly by the same clinician. This psychoanalyst will discuss the rationale for designing this treatment strategy for this particular family. This study will provide, at different phases of the treatment, samples of dream material, play narratives, and vignettes from the child therapy and the couple therapy sessions. Transference and countertransference elements will be discussed, with particular reference to exploring how the integration of these elements, in these separate but interrelated treatment contexts, can provide an enriched lens through which to consider treatment of the family as a whole. The case relates to link theory and analytic field concepts through an explication of the intergenerational and professional network implications of concurrent therapies.

Centered Care

For the past several years, health care providers specializing in the treatment of neonates have been working steadily to improve the environment for premature and sick neonates in order to optimize outcomes. They have also begun to recognize that involving the family in every aspect of care not only has positive value for the family, but can improve outcomes for neonates as well. This article examines how the staff at one hospital closely utilized and married these two concepts, developmentally supportive care and family-centered care, to design a Level II special care nursery that embraces parents as partners in treatment. Each phase of design development is described, including space programming, schematic design, environmental design, and design development, as well as the successful use of a multidisciplinary team.
