Hundreds of thousands of students and early career professionals rely on the dsm-5/ICD-10-CM and this authoritative reporting tool updated for new types of assessments. In a convenient 8"x10.5" format, the book covers nearly all areas of care addressed in intake, evaluation, treatment plans, progress notes and end summaries. Users seeking the right term ding for clinical documents can skim and choose from thousands of jargon, behavioral descriptors and standard statements. It also provides interview questions for almost all symptomatic behaviors, a huge collection of mental state questions, a reproducible mental state assessment summary form, and links to hundreds of Internet resources.
