The purpose of this assignment is to evaluate effective non-pharmacological and psychological pain management techniques. 

 Matthew,  age 13, and his mothers have arrived in the pediatric unit for  evaluation of his chronic pain related to cancer. Matthew is a bright,  articulate young man who appears pale, anxious, and extremely  uncomfortable. He is still rating his pain at a 10 (on a scale of 1 to  10) 20 minutes after receiving a dose of morphine sulfate IV, which  should have provided quick and effective relief. The primary health care  provider is ordering a pain consult. Until the pain management team  arrives, Matthew’s nurse asks you to suggest some non-pharmacological or  psychological pain management techniques for Matthew. You work with  Matthew on three different techniques and give him and his mothers an  educational brochure that describes each of the techniques, explains how  to do the techniques, and explains why the techniques are beneficial. 

 make the  patient education brochure you have just given to Matthew and his  mothers. Complete a literature search and choose three age-appropriate,  non-pharmacological or psychological pain management techniques you  believe would be of greatest benefit for Matthew. Give a thorough  description of each technique, explain how to do each technique, and  explain why each technique is beneficial. As with all written patient  education material, remember to consider the reading level of your  patient audience and evaluate your brochure for readability. Include the Readability Index Score at the bottom of your brochure. 

Please be original do not just copy and  paste from the internet

Develop an advocacy statement that addresses the importance of diversity and advocacy as it relates to career counseling. When creating your advocacy statement, be sure to address the key components of advocacy, including a discussion of how you might advocate for clients and students across micro, meso, and macro levels of society. Much like a theoretical orientation statement, your goal is to describe your commitment to social change and advocacy for all clients and students in a fair and safe manner.

• Note: Your advocacy statement should be one to two paragraphs in length. A meaningful statement requires more than a simple sentence stating your beliefs or aspirations. Your advocacy statement should be a tool to begin dialogue between you and your clients/students to explain the ways you work in your role as a counselor to address the needs of clients/students who may be marginalized on the basis of some aspect of their social identity.

Describe how your clients or students might be challenged by various sociocultural factors on their career development. Then, in 2-3 pages,

• Describe three culturally sensitive ways in which you might apply career development theories while also addressing these socioculural factors.
• Include specific advocacy strategies to address the client’s/student’s needs at the appropriate levels.

You must cite at least 2 peer-reviewed articles to justify how you are addressing the sociocultural factors and the specific advocacy strategies you selected.

The American Academy of Dermatology (2021) states that skin cancer is the most common cancer in the United States. One in five Americans will develop skin cancer in their lifetime. Protecting our skin from harmful ultraviolet rays is imperative. However, the human body does benefit from a mild to moderate amount of UV radiation. 

Initial post: What is the best way to protect your skin from sun-related damage? What are the advantages and disadvantages to sunscreens containing common active ingredients such as oxybenzone, octocrylene, and homosalate? Are there benefits to using mineral sunscreens, such as zinc oxide or titanium dioxide? How effective are natural sunscreens, such as coconut oil or shea butter? If a sunscreen product is not regulated by the FDA, how can you determine if the product’s claims are true?
