Trauma- and stressor-related disorders include disorders in which exposure to a traumatic or stressful event is listed explicitly as a diagnostic criterion. These include reactive attachment disorder, disinhibited social engagement disorder, posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), acute stress disorder, adjustment disorders, and prolonged grief disorder.

This assignment provides an opportunity to review, compare, contrast, diagnose, and demonstrate an understanding of the etiology, effects, and treatment options of the aforementioned conditions.

For this assignment, you will prepare a PowerPoint presentation with voiceover using Kaltura. You will address posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), adjustment disorders, acute stress disorder, and one other disorder of your choice (e.g., reactive attachment disorder, disinhibited social engagement disorder, or prolonged grief disorder). Alternatively, your additional disorder of choice could reflect a deeper dive into a derivative of PTSD (e.g., refugee PTSD); a derivative of adjustment disorders (e.g., termination of a romantic relationship); or a derivative of acute stress disorder (e.g., acute stress following a sexual assault). The presentation should include the following slides:

Slide 1: Title Slide

Slide 2: Introduction

Slides 37: Posttraumatic stress disorder

Slides 812: Adjustment disorders

Slides 1317: Acute stress disorder

Slides 1822: Disorder of choice

Slide 23: Summary

Slide 24: References

For each disorder type, you will have five slides that address the following five topics:

1. Etiology and prevalence of the disorder
2. Diagnostic criteria and diagnostic features
3. Differential diagnoses
4. Pharmacologic and nonpharmacologic treatments, including but not limited to therapies and follow-up
5. Cultural, gender, ethnic, spiritual, and social considerations

Completing this assessment will strengthen your understanding of ethical issues and policies related to the coordination and continuum of care and empower you to be a stronger advocate and nursing professional.

As coordinators of care, nurses must be aware of the code of ethics for nurses and health policy issues that affect the coordination of care within the context of the community. To help patients navigate the continuum of care, nurses must be proficient at interpreting and applying the code of ethics and health policy, specifically, the ACA. Being knowledgeable about ethical and policy issues helps ensure that care coordinators are upholding ethical standards and navigating policy issues that affect patient care.

Presentation Format and Length

You may use Microsoft PowerPoint or other suitable presentation software to create your slides. Use Kaltura to create and record your audio/visual presentation.

Check that your Kaltura and PowerPoint software are working properly.

Important: Record your narrated presentation in Kaltura. Do not do a PowerPoint using the PPT Voice-Over” option, but instead use Kaltura to record yourself giving a presentation.

• Your name.
• Date.
• Course number and title.
