Managing Chronic Illness Using the Four-Phase Treatment Approach

A Mental Health Professional's Guide to Helping Chronically Ill People

By: Patricia A. Fennell

A pioneering book to help maximize the quality of life for chronically ill patients Written by a leading authority on chronic illness treatment and management, Managing Chronic Illness Using the Four-Phase Treatment Approach provides evidence-based practice guidelines for clinicians to help their clients with debilitating health problems embrace a new "normal," understand the cyclical nature of their illness, and function at the highest level possible. Patricia Fennell's groundbreaking model for understanding chronic illness identifies and describes four broad phases experienced by the chronically ill: crisis, stabilization, resolution, and integration. Using a broad array of case histories, Fennell vividly illustrates what clients need at each phase and how to assess and respond to them compassionately. Fennell also suggests how clinicians may best use their own changing experiences in their work to help clients transition through the four phases. The goal of the "Four-Phase Model" is to maximize a client's quality of life without offering false hope for a cure, making it an effective treatment strategy for diverse client populations, including people with physiological diseases; patients whose lives are being prolonged by modern medicine; and people who suffer from addiction, post-traumatic stress syndrome, intractable pain, and post-rape and abuse conditions. Complete with detailed treatment protocols for documenting a client's symptoms and quality of life at each phase, Managing Chronic Illness Using the Four-Phase Treatment Approach is a highly practical book for everyone working with chronically ill clients.

Food Safety Management

Chapter 30. Safe Handling of Food in Homes and Food Services

By: Patricia Desmarchelier

Preparing food in the home or food services is frequently the last link in the food chain before food is consumed and in essence it entails catering/cooking and serving of food. Safe food handling at this point is critical in preventing foodborne illness and also in maintaining the food safety measures undertaken by other supply chain participants up to this point. Challenges in managing food safety are related to many factors such as diversity of foods prepared within a facility or at a food event; the multi-ingredient or component nature of the food; extremes in volume of foods handled and size of the operation; wide ranges of food worker education and communication levels and high employment turnover; and overriding socioeconomic factors enabling the practice of safe food handling worldwide. All of these factors have to be considered in managing food safety in this sector.
