Please help with my hw assignment!

Hi all,

wow it’s been SO long since I’ve posted her. Brings me so much memories from nursing school days :)

I am in a RN-BSN program and it has been tough. I have a project that is a whole semester long. First we are working on picking a topic. The topic is something that interests us within social injustice and health disparities.

I choose mental health disparities among minorities. I thought maybe that’s too broad. So I came up with mental health disparities among LGBTQ. Then again, thought that’s too broad as well LOL. I was focusing on mental health because I work in that field and I feel that mental health is so important and to get help!

I am stuck, I need help. Any feedback is welcomed.

    Do you have a faculty advisor? This is who will know best what your program wants to see. Great topic, BTW, as there is certainly an increase in need for mental health care lately and needs are always least well met in minority populations.

    If you don’t have a faculty advisor assigned, seek out the clinical faculty for the mental health rotations and ask to be mentored. If your program doesn’t have a mental health rotation, call your state public health department or big hospital and ask for a MH nurse to help you.

    How about mental health and non-medication compliance, the stigma connected to mental health, lack of family support for mental health patients (they get burnt out after years of dealing with it) or the lack of funds used for mental health.  Mental health really is the red-headed step child of nursing.
