Family Assessment

 

There are 2 parts to this assessment. In this assessment, you gather information for a family assessment and look at the medical history and social influences on a family unit. You will conduct a windshield survey of the community in which your chosen family resides.

Select a family within your community as the basis for the completion of assessments in this course. The family must have at least 1 child under the age of 18 living the home.

Complete and submit a signed Family Release of Confidentiality form to your course instructor prior to your first point of contact with the selected family.

Review the key points of therapeutic conversation.

Formulate key questions for obtaining valuable information.

Ensure your family assessment addresses:

Identifying data
Developmental stage and history of family
Environmental data
Family structure
Family functions
Family stress and coping
Family composition
Parenting styles
Provide a brief overview of the family members.

Define child abuse and neglect using your state’s terminology. Note any parenting weaknesses that might indicate possible abuse and/or neglect.

Write a minimum 875-word summary of Part 1.

Note: Remove all personally identifying information, such as the family members’ names. Refer to family members by initials only.

Part 2: Community Assessment

Review the Windshield Survey Aid.

Review the Windshield Survey Resources

Observe your family’s community by driving around the area.

Consider aspects of the community that could affect residents’ health and any HealthyPeople Leading Health Indicators that may be applicable to the community.

Conduct a windshield survey that addresses the following components:

The age, nature, and condition of the community’s available housing
Infrastructure needs—roads, bridges, streetlights, and so on
The presence or absence of functioning businesses and industrial facilities
The location, condition, and use of public spaces
The amount of activity on the streets at various times of the day, week, or year
The noise level in various parts of the community
The amount and movement of traffic at various times of day
The location and condition of public buildings—the city or town hall, courthouse, and so on
Walkability of community: walking paths/biking paths/safety and proximity for walkability to community resources

Sample Solution

legitimate tactics according to proportionality and military necessity. It depends on the magnitude of how much damage done to one another, in order to judge the actions after a war. For example, one cannot simply nuke the terrorist groups throughout the middle-east, because it is not only proportional, it will damage the whole population, an unintended consequence. More importantly, the soldiers must have the right intention in what they are going to achieve, sacrificing the costs to their actions. For example: if soldiers want to execute all prisoners of war, they must do it for the right intention and for a just cause, proportional to the harm done to them. This is supported by Vittola: ‘not always lawful to execute all combatants…we must take account… scale of the injury inflicted by the enemy.’ This is further supported by Frowe approach, which is a lot more moral than Vittola’s view but implies the same agendas: ‘can’t be punished simply for fighting.’ This means one cannot simply punish another because they have been a combatant. They must be treated as humanely as possible. However, the situation is escalated if killing them can lead to peace and security, within the interests of all parties.
Overall, jus in bello suggests in wars, harm can only be used against combatants, never against the innocent. But in the end, the aim is to establish peace and security within the commonwealth. As Vittola’s conclusion: ‘the pursuit of justice for which he fights and the defence of his homeland’ is what nations should be fighting for in wars (Begby et al (2006b), Page 332). Thus, although today’s world has developed, we can see not much different from the modernist accounts on warfare and the traditionists, giving another section of the theory of the just war. Nevertheless, we can still conclude that there cannot be one definitive theory of the just war theory because of its normativity.

Jus post bellum

Finally, jus post bellum suggests that the actions we should take after a war (Frowe (2010), Page 208).
Firstly, Vittola argues after a war, it is the responsibility of the leader to judge what to do with the enemy (Begby et al (2006b), Page 332).. Again, proportionality is emphasised. For example, the Versailles treaty imposed after the First World War is questionably too harsh, as it was not all Germany’s fault for the war. This is supported by Frowe, who expresses two views in jus post bellum: Minimalism and Maximalism, which are very differing views. Minimalists suggest a more lenient approach while maximalist, supporting the above example, p
