[Virtual Presenter] This is the tittle of my presentation: FAMILY ASSESSMENT AND INTERVENTION. 

Scene 1

[Audio] For this assessment we I will use the Calgary Family Assessment Model. The Calgary Family Assessment Model is a comprehensive framework used by healthcare professionals, particularly nurses, to assess and understand the dynamics of families. It was developed by Drs. Lorraine M. Wright and Maureen Leahey and is widely used in nursing practice. The Calgary Family Assessment Model consists of three major components: the Structural, Developmental, and Functional components..

Care Planning:  Evaluation Plan for prioritized Nursing Diagnosis & chosen intervention

The family will demonstrate improved cognitive coping mechanisms and stress resilience as evidenced by a 20% reduction in self-reported stress levels over the next six weeks. The family will report increased feelings of emotional support and reduced isolation, as evidenced by a 25% increase in family members' scores on a post-intervention emotional well-being survey. The family will demonstrate improved time management skills, as evidenced by a 30% reduction in self-reported time-related stress and a 15% increase in reported time dedicated to family activities over the next eight weeks.

Scene 16

Conclusion:  Closure of Interaction, Summary of Case, & Project Reflection

Family Description: The Johnson family consists of John (38, Father), Emily (35, Mother), and Sophie (8, Daughter). They face challenges related to work-related stress and time constraints impacting family dynamics. The Calgary Family Assessment Model (CFAM) and the Calgary Family Intervention Model (CFIM) were employed to assess and intervene in a holistic manner. Identified strengths included open communication and mutual support. The priority diagnosis was "Impaired Family Coping" related to work-related stress and time constraints. Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT) for stress management was implemented, focusing on cognitive coping mechanisms. The project enhanced my understanding of family-centered care and the practical application of nursing models. Engaging in real-world interventions highlighted the importance of tailoring care to individual family needs and considering cultural factors.
