Read Case Study 4. What action needs to be taken to protect Rachella from harm until medical help can be obtained? Case Study 4: Rachella Rachella is one of your clients. Rachella suffers from anxiety and depression for which she takes medication and is monitored by her GP. Rachella also has counselling once per fortnight. Rachella has recently become involved with a new friend who you believe may be encouraging Rachella to take illicit substances instead of her medication. Today Rachella is very fidgety. She is pacing up and down, seemingly in a world of her own. When you ask her if she is OK, she snaps at you and says “Of course I’m not all right – nothing is all right. You know nothing!! No-one can help me – I’m sick of everything – I just can’t go on anymore”. You notice Rachella has a number of bruises and scratches on her arms and face and appears very uncomfortable when she moves. When you ask what the matter is she gets angry and tells you to just leave her alone.
