@jedd50008 @MHR50008 Yes, a universal challenge in health care. Im finding it particularly difficult in a goal-oriented recovery environment

[Chloe @Chloe_50008]

Biggest challenge this placement has been engaging with clients using illicit substances

[Chloe @Chloe_50008]

@Barbara50008 @MHR50008 all sorts of things... Beans bags... Playdough... Different things help different people

[Chloe @Chloe_50008]

@gaille_50008 @MHR50008 you can learn through the art of consumers, it allows a different form of expression from language

[Chloe @Chloe_50008]

@gaille_50008 @MHR50008 also helps in identifying their current needs, rather than making assumptions from hx & then directing conversation

[Chloe @Chloe_50008]

@MHR50008 clients with chronic schizophrenia desiring weight loss can consider the use of metformin https://t.co/VDCGuTU3gT

[Chloe @Chloe_50008]

@lucy50008 @MHR50008 in 3rd comic, phrases sometimes used w mental health clients, when same phrases used in general med context seem absurd

[Chloe @Chloe_50008]

@Ben_50008 When the alternative is medications that aren't always effective &w side effects,I think I would.The use of anesthesia also helps

[Chloe @Chloe_50008]

@lucy50008 @MHR50008 the change of context from mental health to general medicine demonstrates brilliantly the stigma on mental health

[Chloe @Chloe_50008]

@EllyNURS50008 @MHR50008 also important to consider if clients desire to cease smoking,their dose may need to change https://t.co/L7vBdtc0vR

[Chloe @Chloe_50008]

@jedd50008 @MHR50008 very different nursing strategies for them; follow the recovery model/harm minimisation versus help prevent relapse

[Chloe @Chloe_50008]

@jedd50008 @Chanel50008 @sundar50008 @MHR50008 I have seen both substance-induced psychosis + consumers using substances for coping in youth

@keoungok50008 @MHR50008 @Justine50008 Thanks. But you may need to delete that tweet due to the temporal signifier

[Chloe @Chloe_50008]

@maria_50008 @caroline50008 @Justine50008 @MHR50008 I see your point. But sometimes, sleeping until midday is their real life

[Chloe @Chloe_50008]

@Justine50008 @MHR50008 @keoungok50008 that's a great improvement. Is that happening same day/next day/week after the ECT session?

[Chloe @Chloe_50008]

@keoungok50008 @MHR50008 Wow. What was the time frame for this?

[Chloe @Chloe_50008]

@sangita50008 @maria_50008 @caroline50008 @Justine50008 @MHR50008 Consumers not necessary non-adherent, but desiring to change medications

[Chloe @Chloe_50008]

@sangita50008 @maria_50008 @caroline50008 @Justine50008 @MHR50008 Also the somatic pain (neck, arms, legs) associated with olanzapine

[Chloe @Chloe_50008]

@maria_50008 @caroline50008 @Justine50008 @MHR50008 Some clients sleep until midday due to the action of nocte antipsychotics

[Chloe @Chloe_50008]

@maria_50008 @caroline50008 @Justine50008 @MHR50008 Following the client's schedule is important as it's their recovery and mimics community
