About Malik

Educational Philosophy of Dr. Malik Abdur-Razzaq

I have a doctorate in health education/sciences from the College of Graduate Health Studies at A. T. Still University of Health Sciences, Kirksville, MO (2011). My dissertation: “Psychiatric triage and screening: Trends, parameters, and limitations when evaluating patients in an emergency room” outlines the stigma of mental illness and probes the assessment, diagnosis, and treatment of the underserved communities.

My skills and qualifications include working for several non-profit agencies as a program director, clinical coordinator, and case manager, where my responsibilities were to initiate mental health assessments to incarcerated inmates to determine level of care and return to community transition. I have a thorough understanding of contractual requirements, review and critique of contracts and requests for proposal (RFP).

I have also worked with adults at an emergency room crisis unit. Like most hospital settings, the screening crisis unit operates 24 hours a day. Patients referred to a psychiatric crisis and acute care units are suffering (in most cases) from a debilitating mental illness. A mental illness can be attributed to acute psychotic features consisting of audio and visual hallucinations, delusions, paranoia, and depression. I have worked in the field of counseling/mental health for 25 years.

Numerous societal factors have given rise to acute psychiatric conditions in patients referred for mental health evaluation and treatment at a specified emergency room (ER). Some of these risk factors include homelessness, domestic violence, unemployment, and poverty; acute and recurring mental illnesses; comorbid disorders, and the effects of war as evidenced by soldiers returning home from overseas with signs of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms. The increase in referrals from correctional facilities, jails, juvenile detention centers, group homes, nursing homes, and schools’ points to institutions overwhelmed and having difficulty managing their specific populations. As a result, these groups and individuals are referred for psychiatric emergency services.

Subsequently, differences in philosophy and approaches to evaluating mental health patients in an emergency room (ER) setting exist and will often give rise to trends, parameters, and limitations that shape the evolution of decision making and clinical outcomes. In many instances, patients will be initially assessed, and a psychiatric review of symptom specific behaviors will take effect at the point of triage.

The ability to understand a patient’s illness predicament as she or he evolves through triage is imperative since decisions made during this phase will legitimate their reason for referral to psychiatric emergency services (PES). On the other hand, a triage assessment could justify a patient’s discharge from the ER with referrals to community mental health services. Just because a subject is brought into the ER or is self-referred, this does not mean he or she is a candidate for PES. In addition, the critical nature in the treatment of mental health patients requires an examination of cause, effect, and outcome. More importantly, patient care must enjoin a collaboration of emergency medical practices along with psychiatric dynamics. This union of the two camps of medicine is essential in providing a balanced effort that will hopefully improve clinical integrity. While the two groups command their own unique specialties, their collaboration in the treatment of psychiatric disorders is essential.

In conclusion, my learning/teaching style is borrowed from those that preceded me and, in many respects, overlaps the various learner centered environments (knowledge-centered, assessment-centered, and community-centered). These styles symbolize pathways in which knowledge, skills, attitudes, and beliefs of learners, enter the educational neighborhood. Furthermore, they portray images, impressions and rituals of various learning styles that assimilate into collective levels of inquiry-while looking at culturally responsive, appropriate, compatible, and relevant elements to learning. Each component serves the other in a harmonized exchange of investigation and critique.
