Schizophrenia
Discussion 1
This week’s first discussion forum will focus on individuals with mental conditions.
Our health, or the absence of such, can be very expensive. Many vulnerable populations simply do not have private funds available to pay for their care. Relating your research to individuals with mental conditions, select a mental illness of your choice and answer the following questions:
- What public financing resources are available to individuals with this particular mental condition?
- What are the eligibility requirements and restrictions to receive these funds?
- What happens if eligibility standards/requirements are not met by those with this illness?
- Are there any alternative care options specific to this group that might be available?
Your research and claims must be supported by a minimum of two scholarly sources beyond your course text. Use proper APA formatting for in-text citations and references as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.

This week’s second discussion forum will focus on indigent and homeless people.

Discuss these methods and give one example of how each would be used when conducting research using homeless individuals as subjects. Analyze regulatory, accreditation, ethical and legal issues and challenges with respect to your research.
Your initial contribution should be 250 to 300 words in length. Your research and claims must be supported by a minimum of two scholarly sources beyond your course text. Use proper APA formatting for in-text citations and references as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
