TASK SUMMARY
For this task, you will be observed participating in a role play to demonstrate you can perform to industry standards and expectations.
You will assist a client who has recently lost a loved one to illness and is now concerned about their own health.
Dianne is a fairly new client to you. She is 35 years of age, legally blind, and lives on her own, but she is also very independent. Dianne does need support to do her grocery shopping. You see her and assist with this once a week on Thursdays. You have just returned home and assisted her with unpacking the shopping. You are about to head off and notice she has been a bit more withdrawn and quieter today, so you ask if there is anything else she needs help with before you go. She asks you for advice on something that has been bothering her. Diane’s mother has recently died of complications from Type 2 Diabetes. She is now worried about her risk of also becoming diabetic.
You stay a bit longer, sit down, and chat with her.
During the role play, your assessor will be looking to see that you demonstrate the following:
Gather and use the information provided by Dianne about her family history.
Review, discuss and interpret Diane’s health information.
Gather and evaluate the information provided by Dianne about her own lifestyle.
Review the factors that relate to Diane’s health concerns and compare these to the maintenance of a healthy body.
Use and apply your knowledge of body systems and other structures to advise Dianne on her concerns.
Debrief and discuss the conversation and your knowledge of body systems with your supervisor
TASK SUMMARY
For this task, you will be observed participating in a Role Play to confirm you can perform to industry standards and expectations.
You are to undertake a role play to assist a client who is not feeling well or presenting in as good health as they normally are when you see them.
TASK INSTRUCTIONS
To prepare for this role play task, you must first read the provided scenario in conjunction with PC2 Incident, Injury, Trauma and Illness Policy and Procedure.
You will play the role of Murray’s support carer, Mariel.
Murray is not as well as he usually is when you see him each week.
You must observe and monitor Murray’s demeanour and general wellbeing as you drive him to his weekly lawn bowls tournament.
Based on your knowledge of healthy body systems and your observations of Murray, you must offer him some advice towards healthier living during the drive.
As you suspect, Murray is not well. Upon your arrival at bowls, you are to meet up immediately with the First aid officer on site and discuss your knowledge of body systems concerning Murray’s health. Your assessor (in the role of onsite first Aid officer) will ask you some verbal questions as a part of this discussion.
The role play should take approximately 10 minutes.
Murray is a client that you work with weekly. He is 78 years old and lives at home with his wife of 59 years, Dorothy. Each week since he surrendered his driver’s licence, you have been accompanying Murray to his Lawn Bowls tournament, to which he has been devoted for decades. With the exception of his wife Dorothy, this is his one great love, and he’s not backwards in telling everyone that he has won many a trophy in his time. He also enjoys the socialising that follows the game and is always the first to the bar to grab a beer and then light up a cigarette. Over the years, his weight has gradually increased, and he is now about 15 kgs over his ideal weight. He has a history of low blood pressure.
Today when you picked Murray up, getting into the car, he looked a little pale. You can’t see his usual, rosey, red cheeks. Based on this initial observation, you asked him if he was feeling ok, and he said, “I’m fine; there’s nothin’ gonna stop me from aiming for Jack today”. Still slightly concerned, you proceed to get him to bowls on time.
During the role play, your assessor will be looking to see that you demonstrate the following:
TASK SUMMARY
For this task, you will be observed participating in a Role Play to confirm you can perform to industry standards and expectations. You are to undertake a role play to assist a client who is due for their fortnightly weight and health checks.
TASK INSTRUCTIONS
To prepare for this role play task, you must first read the provided scenario.
You will play the role of Anna’s support carer, Mariel.
Anna is due for her fortnightly weight and other health checks, and she requires assistance to move due to her age and morbid obesity.
You must support Anna as she struggles both physically and emotionally at her fortnightly weight and health check.
You will be working with a Specialist Allied Health Professional that comes each fortnight to conduct Anna’s weight and other health checks.
Your assessor (in the role of Specialist Allied Health Professional) will ask you some verbal questions as a part of this role play.
You are required to give Anna some advice on being more active to improve her overall health, even with her limited movement in her bed. You can discuss the possibilities with her. The role play should take approximately 10 minutes.
Scenario
Anna is a client that you work with fortnightly. She is 65 years old, suffering from Diabetes and is currently living on-site at Banksia Care. She was admitted into care due to morbid obesity and Diabetes. She could no longer safely look after herself at home as she became bedbound. She is on the list for bariatric surgery; however, due to the risks and potential complications of recovering from such a big operation, she must first lose 40 kilograms to be approved. Getting weighed is her worst time. She finds it emotionally traumatic, and it’s very painful to get in and out of bed each time. A specialist Allied Health Professional attends on site each fortnight to conduct Anna's weight and other health checks
During the role play, your assessor will be looking to see that you demonstrate the following:
