Death and the Mistress Of Delay (F-209)
Length:(HH:MM:SS) 00:28:00, Color, VHS, 1984
This programs deals with the controversy surrounding the death penalty. Specifically, the show focuses on the State of Florida where 225 men are on death row, more than any other state. Even though 90% of the population favors the death penalty, and while 93 executions have been scheduled, only 10 have taken place. This is due in large part to Charlotte Holdman who directs the Florida Clearing House on Criminal Justice. She opposes the death penalty, in part, because she feels it is being used almost exclusively against minorities and the poor. Within the tape, the controversy surrounding the death penalty is viewed from two very different sides. On the one hand, the family and community of a victim of a violent murder react to the issue in emotional and heartfelt ways, while those such as Charlotte Holdman want the legal system to work in a logical and humane fashion for all those on death row, many of whom, she feels, might not belong there. The program poses hard questions such as: whether or not the death penalty is a deterrent to violent crime, and, is justice better served by implementing the death penalty or by using the system of appeals to its fullest extreme?

Every Two Seconds: Why You'll be a Victim of Crime (F-6)
Length:(HH:MM:SS) 00:52:00, Color, VHS, 1983
This program examines some of the issues concerning crime, prisons and the amount of violence found in American society. Within the criminal justice system which includes the police, the courts and the prison system, this program views the police as perhaps the weakest link. The police in today's society are too isolated, weighted down in bureaucracy and are over-motorized, while our court system suffers in similar ways by being over-burdened, slow and bureaucratic. The prisons are perhaps doing more harm than good by providing almost nothing in the way of effective rehabilitation, paroling too many people too soon, and, since prisons are themselves extremely violent places, they tend to de-sensitize the prisoners to violence and violent acts. Alternative strategies to deal with violence and the inherent weaknesses in our criminal justice system include: Neighborhood Crime Watch Programs and alternative sentencing for non-violent criminals which appears to be much more effective and cost efficient than keeping those same people inside a prison.

Gay Rights - Special Rights: Inside the Homosexual Agenda (F-248)
Length:(HH:MM:SS) 00:50:00, Color, VHS, 1993
Presented by Citizens for the Preservation of Civil Rights, this program takes an unflinching look at the homosexual agenda as seen through the eyes of conservative political and social movements of this country. It is stated that homosexuals do not meet the criteria of minority status since, they believe, homosexuals are homosexuals solely by choice and by behavior. Spokespeople for these various conservative movements believe that the granting of minority status to gay, lesbian, bi-sexual and trans-gender individuals under the guidelines of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 will effectively lessen or even eliminate the protections given, by that Act, to racial, ethnic and other minorities. Other negative impacts of granting minority status and thus legal protections to homosexuals, as seen by these conservative movements, include forced hiring of homosexuals by businesses, increased legal suits for discrimination, promotion of homosexual lifestyles to school children, as well as devastating impacts on the church and to traditionally held family values. The last section of this tape profiles three individuals who, at one point in their lives, embraced a homosexual lifestyle but no longer do so, due to their belief that the homosexual lifestyle is wrong and the role of Jesus in their lives.

Information Gathering Within Two Interview Styles (F-71)
Length:(HH:MM:SS) 00:19:00, Color, VHS, 1974
This tape illustrates the use of two different interviewing styles in responding to the request of an adolescent girl to set up a contract specifying the work to be completed before she can be released from a residential treatment institution. In the first example, the interviewer uses active listening techniques and often asks for an elaboration of feeling. Although he begins with the client request and starts to elicit descriptive information about relevant problem areas, his somewhat diffuse approach leads him away from the original focus and does not satisfy the client request. In the second example, the interviewer is much more directive in structuring the interview to render precise descriptions of the problem areas that include disagreements between the girl, Debbie, and her parents, that they will have to negotiate prior to her return home. In contrast to "how do you feel?" questions, in this example the interviewer asks "what, how, when, how often and how long" questions that get at the specific dimensions of the problem.

Living Old: The Modern Realities of Aging in America (F-464)
Length:(HH:MM:SS) 00:01:00, Color, DVD, 2006
With 35 million people in America now age sixty-five and older, the "old old" - those over 85 - are now considered the fastest growing segment of the U.S. Population. While medical advances have enabled an unprecedented number of Americans to live longer and healthier lives, this new longevity has also had unintended consequences. For millions of Americans, livinng longer also means serious chronic illness and a protracted physical decline that can require an an immense amount of care, often for years and sometimes even decades. Yet just as the need for care is rising, the number of available caregivers is dwindling. With families more dispersed than ever and a health care system overburdened, many experts fear that we are on the threshold of a major crisis in care.

Length:(HH:MM:SS) 00:48:00, Color, VHS, 1985
Dr. McCormick introduces a summary of the five stages of response to a terminal illness: denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance, (as described by Kubler-Ross in "On Death And Dying"). As Vern's illness progressed, both he and Anita adapted to living with an uncertain future and consciously chose to live in the moment. Coping skills and strategies included Anita learning to give injections for pain and Vern learning to cope with everyday demands while on morphine. Each developed a keen sensitivity to the other's feelings and needs and maintained very open communication about their feelings of loss. Their successes in coping reinforced their native abilities to make continuing adjustments and they came to a deeper understanding of the intimacy of "shared silence", when words were unnecessary.

He had a strong belief in life after death and felt his memorial service should have a note of triumph within it, as he had truly enjoyed his life and the many great experiences which life had afforded him. As the awareness of his mortality intensified, he found joy in seeing his children and grandchildren and pleasure in trips to the cabin, yet found these to be "bittersweet" experiences, pleasurable yet soon to end. Vern emphasized that, for him, the emotional issues of such an illness were more difficult than the physical.

Changes in relationships, communication patterns, roles and styles of interaction with each other are explored. Vern and Anita discuss the impact the illness has had on the children and on the family network.

Living With Serious Illness, Death And Bereavement, Part 6: Health Care Professionals (F-206)
Length:(HH:MM:SS) 00:45:00, Color, VHS, 1985
Program 6 provides a unique opportunity for health care professionals to hear feedback from two articulate persons who have a great deal of experience as recipients of health care service. Negative behavior of health professionals included: 1) stereotyping the patient, 2) minimizing painful procedures or treatment side effects, 3) allowing patient to go through "withdrawal" from morphine without anticipating it, 4) giving superficial and unwarranted reassurance, e.g., "don't worry about your spouse", and 5) failure to adequately notify the patient about procedures which would be distressful to any very ill patient. Positive aspects of professional behavior which were appreciated by the patient included: 1) treating the patient as a person, 2) providing a sense of hope and reassurance that he would not be abandoned, 3) allowing the spouse access to the patient's chart, 4) nursing care which helped him accept addiction to morphine as a natural consequence of pain management without stigma, 5) negotiating with the patient about time-off from treatment, 6) allowing the family to serve as advocates for the patient, 7) providing Hospice as an alternative to traditional care in the terminal phase, 8) providing support and respite for the spouse to enable her to care for the patient as part of a team effort and 9) respecting patient autonomy in the decision-making process.

Living With Serious Illness, Death And Bereavement, Part 7: The Grieving Process (F-207)
Length:(HH:MM:SS) 00:45:00, Color, VHS, 1985
Part 7 is different from the others in the series in that the edited portions are limited to the years after Vern's death. Anita shares many of the physical, emotional, social and psychological reactions that she experienced during the time leading up to Vern's death and in the months following. One senses the strength that helped her to cope through the many years of Vern's illness and afterwards. There is a positive feeling in seeing Anita's ability to re integrate her life after living through experiences that had sad and tragic aspects, including the loss of six close family members in less than six years. This last tape in the series affirms the fact that positive coping in the face of adversity can enhance spiritual, philosophical and personal growth. Tom and Anita explore some of the stages of working through grief which are applicable to many in the mourning process, such as: 1) shock and disbelief, 2) pain and anguish, 3) despair and depression, 4) holding on and letting go and 5) recovery and new beginnings. The program ends with Anita discussing her perspectives from working on this videotape project. She shares how the idea of producing the series was formulated as well as her reactions to seeing Vern on the tapes: the early tapes of Vern were the hardest when he looked healthy and well. Vern's continuous ability to redefine the quality of life for himself gave him the desire to keep living. Anita expresses the hope that the video programs will be useful for many audiences, such as those in health support systems, Hospice, churches, mental health programs, as well as for patients and their families.

Program 2 - Part 2 Helping a Student and the Class to Take a Risk (F-352)
Length:(HH:MM:SS) 00:14:00, Color, VHS, 1994
A key issue discussed here is the differential reactions of Clay (an African-American female professor) and Shulman (a white Jewish male professor) to the presentation by an African-American male student about intra-ethnic issues in practice (Program 1, Part 2). Although both instructors are emotionally affected by the example, their reactions appear to be, in part, related to race. For example, Clay identified closely with the issues raised by the student and felt some reluctance to explore his pain and his vulnerability in the early phases of the workshop setting. Shulman, feeling like an outsider, identified less with the vulnerability and was anxious to help the student reach behind his use of humor. This response reinforces the importance of faculty tuning into their own feelings and issues as they deal with sensitive areas of student practice. Another key issue presented is the importance of faculty being able to confront student denial in a supportive manner.

The strategy of confronting this process, while simultaneously supporting the vulnerable student, is discussed and illustrated.

This tape examines the reactions of Shulman and Clay to the example raised by the Latino student who is working in the white school system (Program 1, Part 4). They discuss the difficulty of helping students deal effectively with systems, which at times miscommunicate with clients to respond to clients in sexist, racist, homophobic or other biased ways. In addition, they examine the factors that made it difficult for them to move this discussion to deeper levels of analysis. The realities of teaching, including mistakes made by even the best of teachers, are stressed. Openly acknowledging mistakes is shown to be an important example of faculty modeling through the teaching process.

Linda, a young student nurse, is confronted by a young male patient's physical attempts at seduction and a request for a date. Linda becomes flustered and leaves the patient's room abruptly. She then recounts her actions and formulates a plan for effective interaction which would facilitate honest sharing of her response to his behavior. In addition, she acknowledges the client's need to talk to someone about his thoughts and feelings and begins to explore these areas with him. Vignette #2 by Leona L. Eggert. Jody is a 17-year-old adolescent who is experiencing the developmental stresses surrounding sexual identity and attractiveness. Her male therapist attempts to encourage Jody's expression of her thoughts and feelings associated with her seductive behavior toward him. His intervention is characterized by action-oriented acceptance and emphatic understanding of her as well as a sensitive confrontation to her behavior. Vignette #3 by Lucille (Kindely) Kelley. Jackie, a counselor, finds herself attracted to Dave, a recent paraplegic patient. Dave asks her for a date. Jackie utilizes the reality of male-female attractiveness as a basis for exploring the patient's sexual concerns following spinal cord injury. Roleplaying is suggested as a mode of expressing concerns and obtaining feedback about attitudes, feelings and behaviors. Seductive behavior within the context of the helper-client relationship can be frightening to the client and helper alike. The reactions of the helper, however, can facilitate the effectiveness of the therapeutic interaction. These interventions attempt to identify the behavior and to explore the relationship of the behavior to the therapeutic process at hand. The major purpose of this program is to increase the viewer's awareness of the occurrence of seductive behavior in the helper-client relationship.

A behavioral goal is defined by the client with the help of the clinician. The smaller behaviors necessary to reach that goal are then outlined. Starting a conversation is the defined goal. The prerequisite behaviors to achieve this goal are outlined as: choose who to talk to, get there, say something, listen, respond and conversation. The clinician gets a clear description of where and how this behavior is most likely to occur. The situation is then rehearsed using role-play. The client is then asked to practice the new behavior is a real setting and report back to the clinician.

Youth Homicide (F-379)
Length:(HH:MM:SS) 00:29:00, Color, VHS, 1986
This program seeks to alter the perception of youth homicide as strictly one of law enforcement to being one of public health. One of the advantages in viewing youth homicide as a public health problem is that the community response will become proactive rather than reactive. Interviews with public health officials, doctors, community leaders, youths who have committed homicide and program leaders give many insights into this complex problem. A variety of programs are shown that attempt to educate young people about the consequences of violence.
