II. INTRODUCTION
Page | 8
Schizophrenia causes distorted and bizarre thoughts, perceptions, emotions,
movements, and behavior. It cannot be defined as a single illness ; rather schizophrenia is
thought of as a syndrome or disease process with many different varieties and symptoms
much like the varieties of cancer. For decades, the public vastly misunderstood
schizophrenia, fearing it as dangerous and uncontrollable and causing wild disturbances and
violent outbursts. Many people believed that those with schizophrenia needed to be locked
away from society and institutionalized. Only recently has the mental health industry come
to learn and educate the community at large that schizophrenia has many different
symptoms and presentations and is an illness that medication can control. Thanks to the
increased effectiveness of newer atypical antipsychotic drugs and advances in community-
based treatment, many clients with schizophrenia live successfully in the community. Clients
whose illness is medically supervised and whose treatment is maintained often continue to
live and sometimes work in the community with family and outside support.
Schizophrenia usually is diagnosed in late adolescence or early adulthood. Rarely
does it manifest in childhood. The peak incidence of onset is 15 to 25 years of age for men
and 25 to 35 years of age for women (America Psychiatric Association, 2000).
Paranoid schizophrenia is the most common type of schizophrenia in most parts of
the world. The clinical picture is dominated by relatively stable, often paranoid, delusions,
usually accompanied by hallucinations, particularly of the auditory variety, and perceptual
disturbances. Disturbances of affect, volition, and speech, and catatonic symptoms, are not
prominent. With paranoid schizophrenia, your ability to think and function in daily life may
be better than with other types of schizophrenia. You may not have as many problems with
Page | 9
memory, concentration or dulled emotions. Still, paranoid schizophrenia is a serious, lifelong
condition that can lead to many complications, including suicidal behavior.
Patients who have paranoid schizophrenia that has thought disorder may be obvious
in acute states, but if so it does not prevent the typical delusions or hallucinations from
being described clearly. Affect is usually less blunted than in other varieties of
schizophrenia, but a minor degree of incongruity is common, as are mood disturbances such
as irritability, sudden anger, fearfulness, and suspicion. "Negative" symptoms such as
blunting of affect and impaired volition are often present but do not dominate the clinical
picture. The course of paranoid schizophrenia may be episodic, with partial or complete
remissions, or chronic. In chronic cases, the florid symptoms persist over years and it is
difficult to distinguish discrete episodes. The onset tends to be later than in the hebephrenic
and catatonic forms.
In the Philippine setting, the disability survey done in 2000 by the National Statistics
Office (NSO) found out that mental illness was the 3rd most common form of disability in
the country. The prevalence rate of schizophrenia was 88 cases per 100,000 populations and
was highest among the elderly group. This finding was supported by a more recent data
from the Social Weather Station Survey commissioned by DOH in 2004. It reveals that 0.7
percent of the total households have a family member afflicted with mental disability. The
Baseline Survey for the National Objectives for Health in 2000 stated that the more
frequently reported symptoms of an underlying mental health problem were sadness,
confusion, forgetfulness, and no control over the use of cigarettes and alcohol, and
delusions.
Page | 10
The most recent study on the prevalence of mental health problems was conducted
by the National Epidemiology Center (DOH-NEC) in 2006 which showed revealing results
though the target population was limited only to government employees from the 20
national agencies in Metro Manila. Among 327 respondents, 32 percent were found to have
experienced a mental health problem at least once in their lifetime. The three most
prevalent diagnoses were: specific phobias (15 %), alcohol abuse (10%), depression and
schizophrenia (6%). Mental health problems were significantly associated with the following
respondent characteristics: ages 20-29 years, those who have big families, and those who
had low educational attainment. The prevalence rate generated from the survey was much
higher than those that were previously reported by 17 percent.
Currently, there is no method for preventing schizophrenia and there is no cure.
Minimizing the impact of disease depends mainly on early diagnosis and, appropriate
pharmacological and psycho-social treatments. Hospitalization may be required to stabilize
ill persons during an acute episode. The need for hospitalization will depend on the severity
of the episode. Mild or moderate episodes may be appropriately addressed by intense
outpatient treatment. A person with schizophrenia should leave the hospital or outpatient
facility with a treatment plan that will minimize symptoms and maximize quality of life.
We primarily chose this case because of all kinds of schizophrenia; the paranoid type
is the most manageable one. Moreover, according to studies with proper and effective
treatment, paranoid schizophrenic patients have a greater chance to have a normal life.
Aside from that Mr. A.M. was the most coherent and most responsive of all our clients. This
entire case is highly possible to be studied comprehensively within the limited time
available.

V. HEALTH HISTORY
Page | 16
a) Past Health History
From the client's history in chart, he was working in a mining company at 17 years
old. When in 1985, he was figured in a mining accident; he was trapped in a machine
with rocks. The client spare 6 months in the hospital for his physical injuries. Since
then, he became restless and anxious each time he heard loud noises. After
recovery, Mr. A.M., was able to return working in the mining company he had been
before but was fired from work because of carnapping the car owned by the
company.
In 1990, he reportedly began to use marijuana and alcohol. He developed a
behavioral disorder. He was restless, irritable and violent. He hit a child whereby a
case was filed to him but his family settled the case. As said in the chart he was
confined at Roseville Rehabilitation Center for 2 months for psychological treatment
commenced with CPZ, and depot injection. The client had requested treatments and
follow-ups. And in 1995, the client was confined again at Baguio General Hospital for
2 months at the Psychiatric Ward.
As claimed by the client, he was still addicted to marijuana and alcohol after
being discharged from Baguio General Hospital until they had moved in Capaz, Tarlac
on 2004.
There he worked as a farmer together with his father, in their own small
farm. He also had a fight with his brother that made the latter to leave their house
without permission.
In January 2006, he refused to take medications and go for follow-ups. The
family was unable to purchase depot prep. He became irritable, sleepless, and
restless.
Page | 17
In August 2006, he stubbed his father with a nail. He was charged in court but
case was not pursued. The client was forced to take medications to lessen the signs
and symptoms he manifested.
b) Present Health History
One week before admission, the client was again noted to be irritable. He ran
after a kid with a knife and burned some appliances at home (bed and soft cushion).
This prompted his family to seek help from Mariveles Mental Hospital. Mr. A.M. was
then diagnosed with paranoid schizophrenia by Dra. Evangelista upon admission on
September 18,2006.
Mr. A.M. is currently confined at Mariveles Mental Hospital Ward B. The
client stayed at the ward for 4 years now. He talks with some clients in the ward.
Mr. A.M. said that he spent most of his time in sleeping. He sings when he wanted
to.
Mr. A.M. shows only a few of the presenting complains, such as; interrupted
sleep and irrelevant speech. Mr. A.M. was manageable and showed little
manifestation during daily interaction. Mr. A.M. participates well in the therapies
and other activities.
The father last visited the client on July 4, 2009. However, until now, none of
his family members came back to visit him.
Last July, the client has an order for conduction but still waiting for the
scheduled date of discharge.
Page | 18
c) Family History
As the client said, they have no history of having hypertension or diabetes
mellitus both on his parent’s side. He did not remember that his family and other
relatives do have any hereditary illnesses.
Family history of having mental disorder was denied, as written on the chart. But
when we asked the client, his brother was confined at Mandaluyong Mental Hospital
until this time. He also stated that his uncle does have a mental disorder before.
d) Social History
i. Childhood
Mr. A.M. was born in Tuguegarao, but he grew up in Baguio City. He
spent his elementary days in Baguio. He did not have immunizations. As said
by the client, his common illnesses during childhood are fever, colds & cough.
Mr. A.M. had a good relationship with his parents, especially to his father.
The client is closer to his father than to his mother. As claimed by the client,
he & his siblings are in good terms when they are young.
The client stated that he was bullied when he was young. Some of his
childhood peers asked him to spanks their mate and he did it. He always
followed what his friends commanded to him. Mr. A.M. said that he does not
want to be out of place when he was with his friends, so he does whatever
his peers told him to do so.
Page | 19
ii. Adolescence
During his adolescent age, he learned how to masturbate. The client
said that he learned it only by himself, when he was 12 or 13 as remembered.
He told us that it is a part of growing up.
When he was in 2nd year high school, he started to court a woman,
and this became his first and last relationship before he was confined to
MMH. The client also gained friends of the same and opposite sex. Mr. A.M.
joined a fraternity when he was a sophomore student. He only finished
second year high school due to insufficient financial status and he’s also lazy
in going school.
At the age of 17, he started to work at a mining company.
Unfortunately, in 1985, he was trapped in a machine with rocks. He was
confined in the hospital for 2 months. This results him to become restless and
anxious whenever he heard loud noises. This is the time when his 1st sign and
symptom started to manifest.
Page | 20
iii. Adulthood
Mr. A.M. spent most of his adult years in Baguio City. He worked as a
helper on a mining company until he was 21 yrs old. The client was fired
from work due to the case of car napping. After that, he no longer had a job.
The client spent most of his times with his friends whereby he had the vices
of smoking, drinking alcohol and using marijuana. He became addicted to
marijuana. Mr. A.M. was no longer concern with his relationship to his
girlfriend or with his life that time. He did not have his own family or even
marry his girlfriend. The client stabbed his father with a nail when he scolded
him on the things he does, fortunately it’s not fatal. His behavior was also
changed, he became restless. He burned their bed foam and sofa cushion.
He also hit his brother. Mr. A.M. destroyed some appliances of their
neighbor. Lastly, he ran after a child with a knife which forced his parents to
bring him at MMH. At present, the client was 41 yrs old and is confined for 4

The client defined sex as a process of having a family. He started to
masturbate when he was 12 or 13 yrs old and said that it is a part of growing up. He
learned this by himself. The client has not yet experience having sex. He had only
kissed his girlfriend and nothing more than that. Mr.A.M. once discharged, wants to

Alcoholism and Drug abuse(Long term used caused
addiction)
Disorganized thoughts and confusion
Paranoia
Violence
Marked social isolation
Altered mental and physical functioning
Delusions persecutionsAuditory hallucinations
SUBSTANCE ABUSE
(Theory of Drug Abuse)
(Disease Theory of Alcoholism)
Page | 40
The theory of drug abuse views that drug is use as part of the individual’s attempt to
deal with needs and conflicts, relations with others, and the social environment in which he
or she lives. Since all of these vary with age and stage of life, one would expect drugs to be
used and abused for different purposes at different points in the life cycle.
In relation with the client’s past life experiences, he used and became addicted to
marijuana for so many years that led him to have disturbed thoughts and confusions.
The modern disease theory of alcoholism states that problem drinking is sometimes
caused by a disease of the brain, characterized by altered brain structure and function.
Alcoholism is a chronic, life-long disease, such as diabetes. However, if managed properly,
damage to the brain can be stopped and to some extent reversed. In addition to problem
drinking, the disease is characterized by symptoms including an impaired control over
alcohol, compulsive thoughts about alcohol, and distorted thinking.
The client was alcoholic since he was only 21 years old up to the time before he was
admitted to MMH. Too much consumption of alcohol may affect one’s thinking processes.

Stressful Life Situations
(Maslow’s hierarchy of Needs)
Page | 42
Highly stressful situations - may trigger schizoaffective disorder especially in those
people who have inherited a tendency to develop the disorder. Lack of loving and nurturing
care, one of many other factors, is thought to be responsible for mental problems in later life.
Maslow's hierarchy of needs- After physiological and safety needs are fulfilled, the third
layer of human needs are social and involve feelings of belongingness. This aspect of
Maslow's hierarchy involves emotionally based relationships in general, such as:
Friendship
Intimacy
Family
Love and belonging; Humans need to feel a sense of belonging and acceptance, whether
it comes from a large social group, such as clubs, office culture, religious groups,
professional organizations, sports teams, gangs, or small social connections (family
members, intimate partners, mentors, close colleagues, confidants). People need to love
and be loved (sexually and non-sexually) by others. In the absence of these elements, many
people become susceptible to loneliness, social anxiety, and clinical depression.
Adaptation Theory
Interdependence Mode: The close relationships of people and their purpose, structure
and development individually and in groups and the adaptation potential of these groups.
This is the Mode of Adaptation, Mang A. failed to undergone. He was not able to adapt on
those highly stressful situations which caused his mental disorder.
Page | 43
In relation with the client’s life, he had experienced stressful work situation (separation
from his family) and failure in love relationship. Failure of the client to adapt with those life
experiences, made a traumatic impact on him, which resulted Mr. A.M. to have a decrease
coping ability and low self esteem manifesting sadness, hopelessness, stressed, problem in
concentration and worthlessness.

Lose ability to think/ perceive rationally
Delusions Hallucinations
Affects the brain processes
Lose control movement
Uncontrolled emotional response
Uncontrolled experience of pleasure and pain
Altered levels of dopamine and serotonin
Paranoia
Imbalance Neurotransmitter
Page | 45
A Neurotransmitter imbalance—either too much or too little—of these
neurotransmitters is thought to generate psychiatric conditions such as anxiety, depression,
ADHD and other emotional disorders.
Dopamine. Regulation of dopamine plays a crucial role in our mental and physical
health. It moves into the frontal lobe and regulates the flow of information coming in from
other areas of the brain. A shortage or problem with the flow of dopamine can cause a
person to lose the ability to think rationally, demonstrated in schizophrenia. Also, an excess
of dopamine in the limbic system and not enough in the cortex may produce a suspicious
personality and possible paranoia.
Serotonin is key to our feelings of happiness and very important for our emotions
because it helps defend against both anxiety and depression. It has many different effects in
the human mind and body; it helps to regulate mood, sleep cycles, appetite, memory, and
some muscular functions. Deficiencies in serotonin availability have been linked to
depression, anxiety, irregular appetite, aggression and pain sensation. You may have a
shortage of serotonin if you have a sad depressed mood, anxiety, panic attacks, low energy,
migraines, sleeping problems, obsession or compulsions, feel tense and irritable, crave
sweets, and have a reduced interest in sex.
Our client with imbalances in the neurotransmitters dopamine and serotonin, has an
altered brain processes which lead him to have lose ability to think/perceive rationally
(delusions & hallucinations), uncontrolled experience of pleasure and pain, lose control
movement & uncontrolled emotional response (paranoia). Dopamine is responsible for his
thinking skills while serotonin is more on his moods/feelings. Either increase or decrease in
these neurotransmitters affect the client’s cognitive skills and emotional responses.

Continuous increase in dopamine(excitatory)
Alteration in cognition, motivation, emotional response and complex movements
Genetic Factor
Page | 47
It show the complex interactions that occur between mood disorder related genes
and their impact on mood disorder related brain circuitry. The study makes it clear that
individual genes have to be viewed in a context, both a genetic and an environmental
context.
Genetic Factor
Most genetic studies have focused on immediate families (i.e. parents, siblings,
offspring) to examine whether schizophrenia is genetically transmitted or inherited. Few
have focused on more distant relatives. The most important studies have centered on
twins; these findings have demonstrated that identical twins have a 50% risk for
schizophrenia; that is, if one twin has schizophrenia, the other has a 50% chance of
developing it as well. Fraternal twins have only a 15% risk (Kirkpatrick & Tek, 2005). This
finding indicates that schizophrenia is at least partially inherited.
Other important studies have shown that children with one biologic parent with
schizophrenia have a 15% risk; the risk rises to 35% if both biologic parents have
schizophrenia. Children adopted at birth into a family with no history of schizophrenia but
whose biologic parents have a history of schizophrenia still reflect the genetic risk of their
biologic parents. All these studies have indicated a genetic risk or tendency for
schizophrenia, but genetics cannot be the only factor: identical twins have only 50% risk
even though their genes are 100% identical (Riley & Kendler, 2005).
In relation with client’s family history, as claimed, his sibling and his uncle are also
having mental disorders. Beside of neurotransmitter imbalances, head trauma, stressful life
situations and substance abuse that are present with the client, studies show that genetics
is one of the major factors that may contribute in having paranoid schizophrenia.

Personality changes Aggressive behaviorsPoor concentration
Part of the brain is affected
Neuropsychological problems
Leads to traumatic brain injury
Head Trauma
Page | 49
Head trauma survivors may experience a range of neuropsychological problems
following a traumatic brain injury. Depending on the part of the brain affected and the
severity of the injury, the result on any one individual can vary greatly. Personality changes,
memory and judgement deficits, lack of impulse control, and poor concentration are all
common. Behavioral changes can be stressful for families and caregivers who must learn to
adapt their communication techniques, established relationships, and expectations of what
the impaired person can or cannot do. In some cases extended cognitive and behavioral
rehabilitation in a residential or outpatient setting will be necessary to regain certain skills. A
neuropsychologist also may be helpful in assessing cognitive deficits. However, over the
long term both the survivor and any involved family members will need to explore what
combination of strategies work best to improve the functional and behavioral skills of the
impaired individual.
Personality changes are often an exaggeration of the person's pre-injury personality
in which personality traits become intensified. Head trauma survivors may experience short-
term problems and/or amnesia related to certain periods of time. After a head trauma a
person may lack emotional responses such as smiling, laughing, crying, anger, or enthusiasm
or their responses may be inappropriate. This may be especially present during the earlier
stages of recovery. In some cases, neurological damage after a head trauma may cause
emotional volatility (intense mood swings or extreme reactions to everyday situations). Try
to change the person’s mood by agreeing with the person (if appropriate) and thus avoiding
an argument. Show extra affection and support to address underlying frustrations. The
person who has survived a head injury may lack empathy. That is, some head trauma
survivors have difficulty seeing things through someone else's eyes. The result can be
Page | 50
thoughtless or hurtful remarks or unreasonable, demanding requests. This behavior stems
from a lack of abstract thinking. Head trauma survivors should be encouraged to develop
self-checks. Lack of awareness deficits is relatively common for a head injury survivor to be
unaware of his/her deficits. Remember that this is a part of the neurological damage and
not just obstinacies. After a head trauma, a person may experience either increased or
decreased interest in sex. The causes could be a result of brain regulation of hormonal
activity or an emotional response to the trauma.
In relation with the client, after being figured in a mining accident, part of his brain
was affected & had a traumatic brain injury which made him show the following
neuropsychological problems: poor concentration, personality changes and aggressive
behaviors.

UNIT III
B) RELATED LITERATURE
Page | 52
According to Healthy Place (2007), in the paranoid form of this disorder, the sufferer
develops delusions of persecution or personal grandeur. The first signs of paranoid
schizophrenia usually surface between the ages of 15 and 34. There is no cure, but the
paranoid schizophrenia can be controlled with antipsychotic medications. Severe attacks
may require hospitalization. The essential feature of Paranoid Schizophrenia is
preoccupation with one or more systematized delusions or with frequent auditory
hallucinations related to a single theme. In addition, symptoms characteristic of the
Disorganized and Catatonic Types such as incoherence, flat or grossly inappropriate affect,
catatonic behavior, or grossly disorganized behavior, are absent. When all exacerbations of
the disorder meet the criteria for Paranoid Type, the clinician should specify "Stable Type".
Associated features of Paranoid Schizophrenia include unfocussed anxiety, anger,
argumentativeness, and violence. Often a stilted, formal quality or extreme intensity in
interpersonal interaction is noted. The impairment in functioning in Paranoid Schizophrenia
may be minimal if the delusional material is not acted upon. Onset tends to be later in life
than the other types, and the distinguishing characteristics may be more stable over time.
Some evidence suggests that the prognosis for the Paranoid Type, particularly with regard
to occupational functioning and capacity for independent living, may be considerably better
than for other types of schizophrenia.
The abovementioned study provided the information about the paranoid
schizophrenia and its manifestation regarding about the mental illness itself. It also gives us
information about essential feature that one person my experience if he/ she is candidate in
having this kind of mental illness.
Page | 53
We highly agree on what Healthy Place mentioned or written about paranoid
schizophrenia that the range of age or the onset of this mental illness is 15 - 34 years old,
because our client manifest or the manifestation of mental illness is between the ages given
by the writers.
Since our client manifest the same manifestation written above, there is no reason
to disagree the literature given by the Healthy Place.
As a student nurse the greatest implication of this information, is that we can expand
our knowledge about the situation of our client, it can also help us in assessing the client
about the sign and symptoms of the mental illness.
Page | 54
Moreover, Thomas Hodge (2010) said that, paranoid schizophrenics tend to show a
history of increasing suspicions and a severe difficulty with interpersonal relationships.
Eventually, their thoughts are overwhelmed by absurd and illogical ideas and beliefs. These
illogical ideas are not simplistic in nature. Due the workings of the schizophrenic mind,
these conceptions are often highly elaborate in nature. The fears and irrational beliefs
contain more depth than the most elaborate suspense novel. They are highly organized with
depth, twists, and turns that develop a complex framework. Usually the schizophrenic is
being persecuted, chased, or in danger in this delusions. When a writer develops a fictional
story, he knows it is just a story. The schizophrenic does not know that his work of fiction is
fiction. He believes it. Delusions of grandeur are also common. Some may claim to be a
princess or a king or some great person. They usually invent imaginary characters in their
stories which they will carry on conversations with. With paranoid schizophrenics, an
amazing fact exists. Quite often, they are well put together. In their delusions, they are
being persecuted usually which will cause them to go to great lengths to hide their
delusions. Sometimes this makes them seem quite normal. The good news for a paranoid
schizophrenic is that treatments are always improving. Some schizophrenics have actually
accomplished quite a bit once they realized their condition. Some have actually managed to
control their delusions by sheer will.
The study mentioned on the writings of Thomas Hodge is that the ability to think in
this kind of mental illness is more negative point of view, also those people who suffer in
this kind of mental illness has more suspicious and has weak interpersonal relationship to
others. He also added that paranoid schizophrenia and its treatment are always improving.
Page | 55
We agree in the part that the treatment for paranoid schizophrenia is still improving
although the illness itself has no cure. We also agree in part of writings that those client
suffer in this condition don’t know what is the difference between the reality and fantasy.
The greatest implication of the writing of Thomas Hodge in nursing profession is that
there is still a palliative treatment even though the hard fact is there is no treatment. It can
also give us information that this kind of mental illness, they have weak interpersonal
relationship to others and they are often suffering in delusions.
Page | 56
According to P Jones et.al. (2010), although a genetic component in schizophrenia is
well established, it is likely that the contribution of genetic factors is not constant for all
cases. Several recent studies have found that the relatives of female or early onset
schizophrenic patients have an increased risk of schizophrenia, compared to relatives of
male or late onset cases. These hypotheses are tested in the current study.
The study mentioned above states that the genetic factor or through genes it can
transfer the paranoid schizophrenia and the other types of schizophrenia. That if there is
one of the family has schizophrenia more or less the other family members has a tendency
to have the same mental illness.
We agree on what P. Jones and her colleagues written because according to client
her uncle and his younger brother have the same mental illness he suffered. Therefore we
concluded that in runs through the blood of there family in having schizophrenia.
One its greatest implication on nursing profession is that through genes the mental
illness like schizophrenia can transfer. With the proper study it can help the nursing
profession to understand how the genetic factor of one person can transfer the mental
illness to other family members
Page | 57
Mayo Clinic staffs (2010) also mentioned that with paranoid schizophrenia, your
ability to think and function in daily life may be better than with other types of
schizophrenia. You may not have as many problems with memory, concentration or dulled
emotions. Still, paranoid schizophrenia is a serious, lifelong condition that can lead to many
complications, including suicidal behavior. But with effective treatment, you can manage the
symptoms of paranoid schizophrenia and work toward leading a happier, healthier life.
The study abovementioned by Mayo Clinic Staffs states that without proper
treatment the paranoid schizophrenia will lead to more serious complication like attempting
to have suicide. It also stated that having this kind of mental illness your ability to thing is
slower and you will suffer in poor concentration to many things.
We agreed on what Mayo Clinic Staffs said about, that of all kinds of schizophrenia,
the paranoid is the most manageable one. They also stated the same symptoms manifested
by the client like having hallucinations and an attempt on suicide. With proper and effective
treatment, paranoid schizophrenic patients still have the great chance to have a normal life
they had before.
The implication of this writings to the nursing profession and to student nurses it can
help us to understand that those client suffer in this kind of condition is that they have poor
coping mechanism. It can also help us in terms of giving more attention and time in helping
the client to cope to external environment.
Page | 58
Furthermore, Nursing Crib (2008)they identify the symptoms of schizophrenia are
categorized into two major categories, the positive or hard symptoms which include
delusion, hallucinations, and grossly disorganized thinking, speech, and behavior,
and negative or soft symptoms as flat affect, lack of volition, and social withdrawal or
discomfort. Medication treatment can control the positive symptoms but frequently the
negative symptoms persist after positive symptoms have abated. The persistence of these
negative symptoms over time presents a major barrier to recovery and improved the
functioning of client’s daily life.
The studies gathered above provided information to increment the knowledge of the
readers about schizophrenia and its basic concept about the mental illness itself. This
research abovementioned tells the vital role of knowing the manifestations and treatment
that may use in client suffering this kind of condition.
We highly agree that there is two major categories that schizophrenic client may
experience because our client also suffer in the same kind of categories given. It also makes
us convince that this article is agreeable because the medication taking by our client only
treat the positive or hard symptoms.
The implication of this article to nursing profession is that we can understand what
are the classifications of schizophrenia and what are manifestation they shown. It also gives
information about the effect of medication and how it helps the schizophrenic client.

ORIENTATION PHASE DAY 3NOVEMBER 10, 20102:00 P.M. – 4:00 P.M.MMW TENNIS COURT
I. OBJECTIVES:
a. Client-Centered Objective:
Setting the contract and discussing it thoroughly.
Obtain personal data.
Obtain some history from the past.
b. Nurse-Centered Objective:
Introduced ourselves to the patient.
Establish rapport
Remember and interpret verbal and non-verbal cues correctly.
II. DESCRIPTION OF SETTING
a. Describe the environment:
It was a cloudy afternoon, the sun does not shining directly and the wind
blows softly when we received Mr. A.M. from the male ward B, under the
supervision of our Clinical Instructor, Mrs. Nemia Calimbas. First, we assisted the
client in grooming his self. Afterwards, we walked with him and went to the tennis
court. There we prepared our chairs approximately 3-4 feet away in front away from
him. We started the conversation by greeting Mr. A.M. a pleasant afternoon and
introducing ourselves. We discussed the contract to him thoroughly, that he showed
interest on the days we will be together. The client started to give information when
we asked him about his personal data. As the conversation continues, we felt that
Mr. A.M. was comfortable talking to us. And as a positive result, we didn’t find it
hard having a good conversation with our client.
Page | 62
b. Describe the nature, behavior, affect and mood of the client.
Mr. A.M. walking towards to us from his ward looks at ease, quiet and slightly
serious. He smiled and nodded on us when he was introduced to us by Mrs.
Calimbas. When we went to the grooming area, he saw other clients playing
chess. He said that he wanted to play chess, too.
The client fixed himself a very few assistance from us. He showed
independence on grooming his self.
While we are walking on our way to the tennis court, we noticed that our
client is relaxed and calmed. Our conversation started with him listening
attentively. Mr. A.M. answered our questions appropriately. He also displayed
the right affect on the situations we’d talked about.
The client showed trust on us by sharing a lot of essential information
regarding his past and his experiences before he was admitted. The conversation
flows smooth and substantial because Mr. A.M. talked with us freely. He trusted
us so then, he’s comfortable in sharing his story.
Mr. A.M. said that he only shared those issues of his life only to us, he didn’t
told those stories to the student nurses of the morning shift.
All throughout the time that he’s with us, we felt like Mr. A.M. had already
recovered from his disorder and it looked like we are talking to an individual with
good mental status.

SN: Magandang hapon po Mang A.M.
C: Magandang hapon din.
(while walking on the way to the tennis court)
SN: Mang A.M. ako po si Riza at siya naman po si Joey, kami po ang mga student nurses niyo ngayong hapon. Galling po kami sa BPSU, Bataan Peninsuala State University po, sa Balanga. Isang buwan po tayong magkakasama, mula lunes po hanggang miyerkules. Ngaung lingo po tsaka sa susunod na lingo, twing hapon po tayo magkikita, bandang alas doa po ng hapon hanggang alas kwatro po. Pero sa susunod pang dalawang lingo, pag umaga na po tayo, mga alas-9 po ng umaga hanggang alas-11 po. Malinaw po ba?
C: Ah, nagyong linggo saka sa susunod na linggo pang-hapon tayo, tas sa susunod pang 2 linggong session natin umaga na?
SN: Opo Mang A.M. Ganun na nga po.
C: Kanina kasama ko yung Nickson, kilala nyu sya?
GIVING RECOGNITION
GIVING INFORMATION
Greeting the client shows that the nurse recognizes the client as a person, as an individual and at the same time, the student nurses were able to give respect to the client.
Includes giving the client right information on the things needed during the interaction therapy. It helps in establishing a trusting relationship with the client. Information given by the student nurses also sets the contract of the whole nurse-patient interaction. By this means, the client was able to understand when and where the interactions will happen.

SN: Opo, magka-batch po kami sa BPSU.
(at the tennis court)
SN: Mang A.M., andito po kami para makipagkwentuhan sainyo, para po makausap niyo.
C: Oo nga eh, naiinip ako, lagi lang akong natutulog sa ward.
SN: Maari po ba naming malaman ang inyong pangalan?
C: Ako si Mang A.M.
SN: Ilang taon na po kayo?
C: 41 na ako. Apat na taon na ko dito.
SN: Ganun po ba? San po ba kayo nakatira bago po kayo mapunta dito?
C: Taga Capaz, Tarlac ako pero laki ako sa Benguet.
SN: Alam niyo pub a kung saan kayo ipinanganak?
OFFERING SELF
ACCEPTING
It implies that the nurse offers presence, interest, and desire to understand. The client feels more comfortable having a conversation on a nurse who shows interest on what he/she’s saying. Offering self to the client also facilitates collaboration in performing tasks.
An accepting response indicates the nurse has heard, understood and is willing to listen on what the client wants to share. It makes conversation effective and meaningful. The student nurse was able to make Mr. A.M. to verbalize other information needed to understand his condition.
Page | 65
C: Oo. Sa Isabela.
SN: OH kelan naman po ang birthday nyo?
C: Ah, January 21, 1969
SN: Mang A.M. ano po ba ang relihiyin ninyo?
C: Roman Catholic, pero dapat Jehovah’s Witnesses na ako. Hindi lang ako nabaptize kasi nga dinala ako dito.
SN: ah, katoliko po kayo dati tapos po lilipat dapat kayo sa saksi ni Jehovah, ganun po ba? Tama po ba ang intindi ko?
C: Oo, ganun na nga, kaso hindi ako natuloy.
SN: Naaalala niyo pub a kung nasaan kayo nung 1995?
C: 1995? Hindi na gaano. Nasa benguet pa ata ako noon. Oo nasa Benguet pa nga ako.
SN: Nasa Benguet po kayu nung 1995?
C: Oo.
CONSENSUAL VALIDATION
CLARIFYING
For verbal communication to be meaningful, it is essential that the words being used have the same meaning for both participants. Validating what was heard and understood must be clear for both student nurses and the client. Such, is to make the conversation meaningful, and to avoid misunderstandings or wrong information taken. At this way, the client was able to validate or not the information understood by the student nurses.
Helps the client clarify their own thoughts and maximizes mutual understanding between the nurse and the client.
Page | 66
SN: Sino naman po ang kasama niyo doon?
C: Eh di pamilya ko. Sila Tatay at Nanay, saka dalawa kung kapatid. May nobya nga ako noon eh.
SN: Ano pong pangalan ng tatay at nanay niyo?
C: Tatay ko si RM, tas nanay ko si LM.
SN: eh ung mga kapatid niyo po?
C: Si Gm ung sumunod sakin tas si SM ung bunso.
SN: ah, ilan taon nap o sila?
C: si GM 37 na siguro yon, tas si SM 21 na.
SN: bale po apat na taon ang tanda ninyo ka GM?
C: Oo.
ASKING DIRECT QUESTIONS
CONSENSUAL VALIDATION
Asking direct questions to the client will merely assess the client’s capability to think, rationalize, and give answers to a specific question. It also helps getting important information specific to support student nurses ‘assessment. The client responded with answers specific and appropriate with the question asked to him.

Putting into words what the client has implied or said indirectly tends to make the discussion less obscure. The nurse should be as direct as possible without being unfeelingly blunt or obtuse. The client may have difficulty in communicating directly. Verbalizing the implied makes the conversation clearer and easier for the client to understand the thoughts he’s talking about.

To understand the client, the nurse must see things from his or her perspectives. Encouraging the client to describe ideas fully may relieve the tension the client is feeling and he or she might be less likely to take actions on ideas that are harmful or frightening. This also provided the way Mr. A.M. views that certain situation in his life.
Silence often encourages the client to verbalize, provided that it is interested and expectant. Silence gives the client time to organize thoughts, direct the topic of interaction, or focus on issues that are most important.

included his girlfriend. He loves her so much, up to the point that the woman was
always on his mind until now.

affect on what we are talking about. The client knows and remembered his life
before he was admitted. Mr. A.M. also knew the exact dates when the important
events of his life occurred. He talked about lots of stories and experiences he had

by means of remembering those times that he was on a peer pressure and did not
mind to follow his parent’s advice for him. The client realized that the thing had
done before are wrong. He also started if he had only followed his parents, maybe
his life during his adulthood will be on the right way. Lastly, Mr. AM said that a man
must choose his friends; must follow his parents & must distinguished the right from
wrong.

about the dates of these events, he still remembers what happen first before the

by when received Mr. A.M from the male ward. We first want to the grooming
area w/ assistant his self; we walked together from the male ward to the BPSU
student center. There were set the tables & chair conducive to the puzzle
therapy. Only the patients could seat & the student nurse are on their sides. Two
tables were placed apart each & 3 patients. We started the puzzle therapy first
by orienting our clients & giving them the instructions on how they will do the
puzzle. Simple do complex puzzles were prepared by each student nurse. After
having the puzzle therapy, we discussed & have short evaluation of it with our
client.
Play Therapy
This play was done in the tennis court after having the puzzle therapy. Each
pair of student nurses prepared an indoor & outdoor game. Mr. A.M wanted to
play chess so we chose it for him in the indoor game, while for the outdoor game
the group agreed to play the ball for all our clients. First, we formed a big circle &
played the ball by passing & catching e the client/student nurse, and those who
would not be able to catch the ball will be out. Mr. A.M participated actively in
the game while preparing the board; Mr. A.M was so excited arranging the
officials of the chess he won in the chess for 3 rounds. Mr A.M. showed
enjoyment in doing the play therapy.

b. Describe the nature, behavior, affect and mood of the client.
From the time we received Mr. A.M., we noticed that he’s in good mood. He
smiled on us when he saw us coming to him.
During the puzzle therapy, Mr. A.M. showed interest in the activity by
listening attentively to the facilitator. He was able to differentiate the simple puzzle
from the complex one. The client did the puzzle seriously. He was able to do the
simple puzzle by his self, but in the complex puzzle we assisted him.
While on having the play therapy, Mr. A.M. was so excited upon hearing that
we will play chess and the ball game. He really wanted to play chess. The client
behaved accordingly when he did not win in the ball game. He said that it’s alright.
While on the chess, he’s so happy that he won, but not up to the point that he
boasted it.

IV. THEME IDENTIFICATION
Content Theme
The focus of our conversation after the biblio therapy was on Mr. A.M.’s
childhood experiences with his uncle and the diamond on his about to inherit. The
client told us that his head was cut-off and a diamond was put inside in his head
when he was 6 y/o. It is intended to make him intelligent and it was done by his own
uncle. He said that his spirit separated from his body, in that way he saw how his
head was cut-off. Mr. A.M. also remembered his grandfather in the part of the story
when Noe build the ark, because his grandfather was also the one who repaired
their house in Baguio.
Interaction Theme
During our interaction with the client after the therapy, he is not logical or in
sequence when he is telling us the story of the diamond on his head. He also did not
have concrete answer. The client changes his answer to a question when it is
repeated. His affect was also not that good, it is blunted.
Mood Theme
Mr. A.M was in good mood from the moment we received him from the ward
up to the time we brought him back there. His behavior was the same with our
previous interaction. The only thing changed is affect and his answers are not that
appropriate to the question we asked. Fortunately, the client participated actively in
the therapy.

V. NURSING DIAGNOSIS
Disturbed thought processes r/t psychological disorder as evidenced by non-reality
based thinking.
VI. NURSING INTERVENTION
Maintain a pleasant quiet environment & approach in a slow, calm manner. Give
simple direction, using shorts words & simple sentences. Listen with regards.
Present reality concisely and briefly. Do not challenge illogical thinking. Allow more
time for client to respond to question or comments. Clarify things to client especially
when they are in doubt of it.
VII.SUMMARY AND EVALUATION
The biblio therapy was successfully done that morning. Our client was
oriented & instructed clearly. Mr. A.M. watched and listened on the story
attentively. Afterwards, we evaluated our client’s understanding about the therapy.
He was able to recall the story and recognized the moral lesson for it. Mr. A.M. also
verbalized another story of his life, the diamond on his head. This started him to be
illogical in what he’s saying. His answers are inappropriate and he said things that
are impossible.

VALIDATING
ENCOURAGING A DESCRIPTION
HUMOR
And also he says that every stages must be fulfilled in order for the person to moved forward to another stage of development. Sexual development happens in each person on the same stage, the same way but some remain stagnant and some are moving forward.
For verbal communication to be meaningful, it is essential that the words being used have the same meaning for both participants. Sometimes words, phrases, or slang terms have different meanings and can be easily misunderstood.
To understand the client, the nurse must see things from his or her perspectives. Encouraging the client to describe ideas fully may relieve the tension the client is feeling, and he or she might be less likely to take actions on ideas that are harmful or frightening.
Harmless humor can reduce mild to moderate anxiety, gives perspective on life events and reduces social distance.

REFLECTING
ACCEPTING
GIVING RECOGNITION
Reflections encourage the client to recognize and accept his or her own feelings. The nurse indicates that the client’s point of view has value, and that the client has the right to have options, make decisions and think independently.
An accepting response indicates the nurse has heard, understood and is willing to listen on what the client’s want to share. It makes conversation effective and meaningful.
Greeting the client by name, indicating awareness of change, or noting efforts the client has made all show that the nurse recognizes the client as a person, as an individual. Such recognition does not carry the value, that is, of being “good” or “bad”.

Diyos: Noe, makinig ka! Sisirain ko ang mga masasama sa mundo. Ang iyong sambahayan at ikaw lamang ang makakaligtas.
Noe: Panginoon, ano po ang dapat kong gawin?
Diyos: Magkakaroon ng malaking baha ng tubig sa ibabaw ng mundo. Gagawa ka ng daong na kahoy, malaking sasakyan para sa iyong sambahayan at maraming mga hayupan.
Narrator: Minanduhan ng Diyos si Noe. Binigyan si Noe ng tumpak na utos. Si Noe ay kumilos agad. Kinutya si Noe ng mga tao habang nagpapaliwanag kungbakit gumagawa ng daong o arko. Sinabi niya sa mga tao ang tungkol sa baha ngunit walng nakinig sa kanya.
Mga tao: Kalokohan! Paano babaha dito at ni minsan ay hindi pa naulan. Niloloko mo lamang kami. Hindi kami naniniwala sayo. Sinungaling!
Noe: Malaki ang tiwala ko sa Panginoon. Naniniwala ako sa kanyang pahayag kahit hindi pa naulan kahit kalian.
Narrator: Kaya’t sinunod ni Noe ang ipinag- utos ng Diyos. Gumawa siya ng malaking arko. Nang matapos na ito ay handa ng lagyan ng mga pangkailangan. Ngayon dumating ang iba’t ibang uri ng hayop. May mga ibon, may mga malalakin hayop, maliliit, at matatangkad. Ang lahat ng ito ay pumasok sa arko.
Pinagtawanan ng mga tao si Noe.

Narrator: Hindi sila naniniwala tungkol sa mlakimg pagbaha kaya’t sila ay walang takot at pinagpatuloy ang kanilang masasamang Gawain. Ngayon lahat ng mga hayop at mga iboon ay nasa daong na, gayundin ang pamilya ni Noe. Si Noe, ang kanyang asawa, ang 3 anak na lalaki at ang kanilang mga asawa ay nagsipasok na sa arko. Sinara ng Diyos ang pintuan!
Pagkatapos ay biglang dumating ang ulan. Malakas na malakas ang ulan na bumaha ng bumaha sa ibabaw ng lupa. Nalunod ang mga taong hindi naniniwala kay Noe. Gusto man nilang pumasok sa arko ngunit huli na ang lahat. Bumaha sa lahat ng lungsod at nayon.
Mga Tao: Tulong! Tulungan niyo kami. Nagsisisi na kami sa mga nagawa naming kasalanan. Noe! Papasukin mo kami. Patawarin mo kami. Maawa na kayo. Tulong!
Narrator: Nang huminto ang ulan, ang mga kabundukan ay inapawan ng tubig. Habang palalim ang bahang tubig, lumutang ang daong sa ibabaw. Ang daong ang nakaligtas kay Noe at kanyang sambahayan sa malaking baha.
Nang matapos ang limang buwang baha, nagpadala ang Diyos ng pangtuyong hangin. Dahan- dahan, ang daong ay huminto sa ibabaw ng Bundok Ararat. Pinalabas ni Noe ang isang kalapati.
Noe: Humayo ka at humanap ng tuyong lupa upang ating pagdaungan.
Narrator: Hindi ito nakakita ng tuyong lupa kaya’t nagbalik ang kalapati. Nang dumaan ang 1 linggo, pinalabas muli ni Noe ang kalapati. Bumalik ito na may dalang dahon ng olibo sa kanyang tuka.

Diyos: Ito na ang takdang panahon. Oras na upang umalis kayong lahat sa daong. Pagpalain ka Noe dahil sa iyong pagsunod at pagtitiwala sa akin.
Ang bahaghari na ito ay siyang sumisimbolo ng aking pangako. Hindi na muling magbabaha sa mundo upang parusahan ang mga may kasalanan.
Noe: Purihin ang Panginoon! Diyos na dakila sa lahat. Maraming salmat po at iniligtas ninyo kami sa kapahamakan.
Narrator: Gumawa si Noe ng altar at sumamba sa Diyos na nagligtas sa kanya at sa kanyanh sambahayan sa malaking baha ng tubig. Si Noe at ang kanyang pamilya ay nakahanap muli ng bagong pamumuhay pagkatapos ng dakilang baha.
