Directions: View the directions for this assignment in the content folder in Blackboard. When it is time to complete this document, do so as if it is documentation that would go into a client’s file. Do NOT use APA style. Do NOT cite any sources – this is not a research paper. Please write complete sentences, in order to be clear about the information in each section. The overall goal is to show you understand the content in each section. Write the information in paragraph form, not in bullet points. The suggested content/directions in each section should be deleted when no longer needed (including the directions in this paragraph). At submission, the only information needed in this report are the section headings and the client’s specific information.

Presenting Problem
Buy Clinical Assessment Report Assignment
Describe information about the client’s current mental health and behavioral issues. What symptoms are creating problems with functioning in the areas of occupation, education, relationships, and general life issues?
Please keep the information in this section related to the symptoms being measured in the SCL-90-R.
Sources of Information
What assessment tool was administered? What date was it administered? Were there any issues with administration?
Background Information
Briefly summarize the highlights of what the client reported in the intake (biopsychosocial assessment). Are there notable events that occurred in the client’s lifetime? Keep the information limited to “big” events and/or information that is strictly related to the client’s mental health. This section will include several sentences that begin with statements like, “client reported.”
Keep this section concise but also allow the reader to have a better understanding of the client after reading.
Behavioral Observations
This section should include brief statements about anything significant you observed while administering the assessment tool or through clinical observation during the interview. This information should add to the overall picture of the client. Only add information that will help to better understand the client’s thoughts, feelings, and behavior; as well as gain information that will lead to the correct diagnosis or understanding of the client’s presenting problems.
Assessment Results
In a report where multiple assessment tools were administered, only the “significant” scores would be reported. However, since only one assessment tool was used for this assignment, please give a concise report of all the information obtained from the SCL-90-R. For example, what did the client score in each section? Was the score “significant?’
This section is only for objectively stating/reporting the results. In this section, do NOT try to explain why the results are the way they are. Do NOT try to find a deeper meaning for the client’s thoughts, feelings, and behavior. There is a different section for that.
Assessment Summary
Buy Clinical Assessment Report Assignment
Summarize all assessment information, especially as it relates to the presenting problem. For example, if the Beck Depression Inventory was being administered, there might be a statement in the summary section like this – “The client scored in the moderate range on the BDI, which is consistent with the client’s report of depressive symptoms.” Helpful tip: An “A” paper will go deeper than only making a similar statement as in the previous sentence. While it is important to not repeat information throughout the paper, this section might have some information that is repeated from a previous section, to be clear about how everything is connected.
In this section, look at all the information you have collected about the client (all assessments, observations, and background information) and make objective connections. In this case, objective means all personal biases are not considered when making the connections. It is important to remember that any thoughts about a client’s intentions, thoughts, and feelings are conjecture and not factual – no matter how right you think you are!
Diagnosis
Provide the DSM-5-TR diagnosis. (The diagnosis should be related to the symptoms measured by the SCL-90-R. No other diagnoses will be evaluated since this is not a diagnosis course. The purpose is to show understanding of connecting assessment to the diagnostic process.) Provide a rationale for the diagnosis. Explain why the diagnosis selected is the best/true diagnosis for the client. Do not only copy and paste the diagnostic criteria from the DSM-5-TR. The criteria can be included, but there must also be an explanation of how the client specifically has a symptom that matches each part of the criteria. Each symptom mentioned must be included somewhere in the report. No new symptoms should be introduced in this section.
