Assessments

It is imperative that Human Service Professionals take into consideration all that is known about the client/family when identifying appropriate interventions. Assessments are used to gather information about the client/family. Please use the assigned readings and use the Library to research peer-reviewed studies to support your post.

Please respond to the following:

  • Identify at least three different assessment tools discussed in Chapter 6.
  • Pick one of the tools you identified and thoroughly discuss the tool. Include in your discussion the type of information the tool collects, when the tool should be used, whether or not the tool is easy or difficult to use, and whether or not this tool should be used with an individual, a family, a group, or if the tool is appropriate to use with all three.
