The Complexity of Eating Disorder Recovery in the Digital Age
Post by Day 3 a 300- to 500-word response in which you address the following:
• Provide the full DSM-5 diagnosis for the client. Remember, a full diagnosis should include the name of the disorder, ICD-10- CM code, specifiers, severity, and the Z codes (other conditions that may be a focus of clinical attention).
• Explain why it is important to use an interprofessional approach in treatment. Identity specific professionals you would recommend for the team, and describe how you might best utilize or focus their services.
• Explain how you would use the client’s family to support recovery. Include specific behavioral examples.
• Select and explain an evidence-based, focused treatment approach that you might use in your part of the overall treatment plan.
• Explain how culture and diversity influence these disorders. Consider how gender, age, socioeconomic status, sexual orientation, and/or ethnicity/race affect the experience of living with an eating disorder.
• Explain whether you agree or disagree with your colleague’s treatment strategy.
• Explain additional cultural influences that your colleague should consider when addressing the specific eating disorder they identified.
