SYSTEMS-BASED PRACTICE

Based on a case you have encountered, please address the following issues in a one-page summary:

I. Identify at least one problem with the system that had an adverse affect on the encounter or outcome. These could be either a problem in navigating the system or a systems error problem. Please use one of the following template sheets.

II. Identify at least two strategies for intervention. These should be strategies aimed at correcting or improving “the system.” Include potential ways to implement the strategies (who and what resources in the system would be necessary to implement your strategies).

III. For each strategy, describe how the intervention would have affected the outcome of the case.
