INSTRUCTIONS
This assessment workbook, together with the skills workbook, addresses
all the competency requirements of the following units:
CHCCCS015 - Provide individualised support
CHCCCS023 - Support independence and well being
HLTAAP001 - Recognise healthy body systems
The questions in this workbook are divided into two (2) categories:
Knowledge Assessment and Case Study.
The questions under Knowledge Assessments are all in a short answer
format. The longer questions requiring creative and analytical thought
processes are covered in the Case Study and Project Assessment
. You
must answer all questions using your own words
. However, you may
reference your Learner Guide and other relevant resources and learning
materials to complete this assessment.
Some questions cover processes you would likely encounter in a
workplace. Ideally, you should be able to answer these questions based
on the processes that are currently in place in your workplace. However,
if you do not currently have access to a workplace, then answer the
questions based on processes that should be implemented in a typical
workplace setting.

WHAT
IS
COMPETENCY-BASED
ASSESSMENT
The features of a competency-based assessment system are:
It is focused on what learners can do and whether it meets the
criteria specified by the industry as competency standards.
Assessment should mirror the environment the learner will
encounter in the workplace.
Assessment criteria should be clearly stated to the learner at the
beginning of the learning process.
Assessment should be holistic. That is it aims to assess as many
elements and/or units of competency as is feasible at one time.
In competency assessment, a learner receives one of only two
outcomes: competent or not yet competent.
The basis of assessment is in applying knowledge for some
purpose. In a competency system, knowledge for the sake of
knowledge is seen to be ineffectual unless it assists a person to
perform a task to the level required in the workplace.
The emphasis in assessment is on assessable outcomes that are
clearly stated for the trainer and learner. Assessable outcomes are
tied to the relevant industry competency standards where these
exist. Where such competencies do not exist, the outcomes are
based upon those identified in a training needs analysis.
Definition of Competency
Assessment in this context can be defined as:
The fair, valid, reliable and flexible gathering and recording of evidence
to support thejudgement on whether competency has been achieved.
Skills and knowledge (developed either in a structured learning situation,
at work, or in some other context) are assessed against national
standards of competence required by industry, rather than compared
with the skills and knowledge of other learners.

Developing and conducting assessment, in an Australian vocational education and training context, is founded on a number of basic conventions:
The principles of assessment
Assessment must be valid
•
Assessment must include the full range of skills and
knowledge needed to demonstrate competency.
•
Assessment must include the combination of knowledge and
skills with their practical application.
•
Assessment, where possible, must include judgements based
on evidence drawn from a number of occasions and across a
number of contexts.
Assessment must be reliable
•
Assessment must be reliable and must be regularly reviewed
to ensure that assessors are making decisions in a consistent
manner.
•
Assessors must be trained in national competency standards for assessors to ensure reliability.
Assessment must be flexible
•
Assessment, where possible, must cover both the on and off-
the-job components of training within a course.
•
Assessment must provide for the recognition of knowledge,
skills and attitudes regardless of how they have been
acquired.
•
Assessment must be made accessible to learners through a
variety of delivery modes so they can proceed through
modularised training packages to gain competencies.
•
Assessment must be mutually developed and agreed upon
between assessor and the assessed.
•
Assessment must be able to be challenged. Appropriate
mechanisms must be made for reassessment as a result of
challenge.

THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF ASSESSING NATIONALLY RECOGNISED TRAINING
Assessment Workbook
1
Page 8
Version No.2.1 Produced 27 April 2018
The rules of evidence
When collecting evidence, there are certain rules that apply to that evidence. All evidence must be valid, sufficient, authentic and current:
Valid
Evidence gathered should meet the requirements of the unit of
competency. This evidence should match, or at least reflect, the
type of performance that is to be assessed, whether it covers
knowledge, skills or attitudes.
Sufficient
This rule relates to the amount of evidence gathered. It is
imperative that enough evidence is gathered to satisfy the
requirements that the learner is competent in all aspects of the
unit of competency.
Authentic
When evidence is gathered the assessor must be satisfied that
evidence is the learner’s own work.
Current
This relates to the recency of the evidence and whether the
evidence relates to current abilities.
(Source: Training in Australia by M Tovey, D Lawlor)
THE
DIMENSIONS
OF
COMPETENCY
The national concept of competency includes all aspects of work performance and not only narrow task skills. The four (4) dimensions of competency are:
1.
Task skills
2.
Task management skills
3.
Contingency management skills
4.
Job or role environment skills

REASONABLE
ADJUSTMENT
Adapted Reasonable Adjustment in teaching, learning and assessment for
learners with a disability - November 2010 - Prepared by - Queensland
VET Development Centre
Reasonable adjustment in VET is the term applied to modifying the
learning environment or making changes to the training delivered to
assist a learner with a disability. A reasonable adjustment can be as
simple as changing classrooms to be closer to amenities or installing a
particular type of software on a computer for a person with vision
impairment.
Why make a reasonable adjustment?
We make reasonable adjustments in VET to make sure that learners with
a disability have:
The same learning opportunities as learners without a disability, and
the same opportunity to perform and complete assessments as those without a disability.
Reasonable adjustment applied to participation in teaching, learning and assessment activities can include:
Customising resources and assessment activities within the training package or accredited course
Modifying the presentation medium
Learner support
Use of assistive/adaptive technologies
Making information accessible both beforeenrollment and during the course
Monitoring the adjustments to ensure learner needs continue to be met

Assistive/Adaptive Technologies
Assistive/Adaptive technology means ‘software or hardware that has
been specifically designed to assist people with disabilities in carrying
out daily activities’ (World Wide Web Consortium - W3C). It includes
screen readers, magnifiers, voice recognition software, alternative
keyboards, devices for grasping, visual alert systems, digital note takers.
IMPORTANT NOTE
Reasonable adjustment made for collecting candidate assessment
evidence must not impact on the standard expected by the workplace, as
expressed by the relevant unit(s) of competency.For example, if the
assessment were gathering evidence of the candidate’s competency in
writing, allowing the candidate to complete the assessment verbally
would not be a valid assessment method. The method of assessment used
by any reasonable adjustment must still meet the competency
requirements.

KNOWLEDGE
ASSESSMENT
Part 1: Individualised Support
The fundamental principles of person-centered planning encompass:
Prioritizing the client as the focal point of the planning process and empowering them to exercise their right to make well-informed decisions regarding their own life.
Understanding the client's needs, values, beliefs, preferences, aspirations, interests, likes, and dislikes.
Supplying information and utilizing the client's preferred communication method to assist them in making informed decisions about their life.
Involving family members, informal caregivers, healthcare professionals, other service providers, and individuals chosen by the client in the creation of personalized care plans.
Assisting the client in leveraging their strengths and talents to enhance independence and overall quality of life.
Conducting regular person-centered planning meetings to ensure ongoing alignment with the client's comprehensive needs.
Here are some of the principles within the strength-based approach in the context of support services.
Recognizing that each client possesses inherent strengths.
Acknowledging that experiences of trauma, abuse, illness, and adversity can have detrimental effects, but they may also present challenges and opportunities for personal growth.
Emphasizing that clients can be most effectively assisted through close collaboration and engagement with them.
Understanding that every environment contains resources that can contribute to the individual's well-being and development.
4. The following are examples of recording and reporting documents used in the care service industry.
Briefly describe the process involved in completing these documents,
and provide a brief explanation why completing these documents as
needed is an important part of your role as an individual support
worker.

The foundational principles of active support revolve around facilitating meaningful activities and relationships, empowering individuals to have greater control over their lives, and encouraging their integration as valued members of
the community. This approach advocates for optimal involvement in the everyday activities of a client's life, including the development and maintenance
of skills in self-care, engagement in social activities, and building relationships.
The advantages of active support for individuals include:
Fostering independence and autonomy.
Upholding the right to make choices and exert control over one's own life.
Encouraging active participation in both physical and mental activities.
Facilitating engagement in meaningful relationships.
Promoting overall health and well-being.

8.1 Privacy, confidentialit
y, and disclosure
The privacy and confidentiality of residents must be consistently maintained during the provision of personal care. This commitment is exemplified by:
The home and approved provider not being informed, verbally or in writing, of the names of residents or representatives interviewed by the team.
Ensuring that interview records are not left visible to anyone at the home.
Preparing reports at the end of each visit without disclosing the identities of residents or
their representatives interviewed.
In the context of providing personal care in respite care or a client's home, it is crucial to consider the following:
Always knocking on the client's front door and waiting for them to answer before entering their home.
Knocking before entering the client's bedrooms and bathroom.
Safeguarding the personal dignity of the client
by closing doors, drawing curtains, or using screens when the client is undressing, showering/bathing, or using the toilet/commode.
Refraining from touching a client's personal belongings without permission, as some may perceive it as a breach of their privacy.
Seeking permission from the client before opening drawers, cupboards, or wardrobes.
Individual support workers, particularly those working with the same client for an extended period,
should be mindful not to overlook these fundamental
guidelines. Considering how one would feel if their privacy were invaded, it's important to continuously check and confirm with the client if the actions taken
align with their preferences. Clients may not express
discomfort readily, so seeking affirmation ensures that their privacy and dignity are respected.
Any information that you have about a client is private and confidential and should not be passed on
to anyone else without that client’s consent.
Only collect personal information from individuals when they provide informed 8. Briefly explain how the following legal and ethical requirements are applied in the support service industry.

consent.
Limited access to personal information is granted solely to staff with a necessity for performing their duties.
Personal information is not shared with third parties unless the individual expressly consents, except when necessary for the primary purposes for which the information was provided.
Ensure the protection of all personal information from loss, modification, and misuse.
Securely store all collected personal information in locked filing cabinets.
Ensure that all personal information stored in computer files is password-protected
When transferring a client’s file from an office to their home, secure all personal information in a locked briefcase.
Uphold the client’s privacy with the same respect as any other client; refrain from gossiping about their ailments or personal affairs, both within and outside the organization. 8.2Duty of care
Duty and care can be implemented by considering the following:
Taking ‘reasonable’ steps to prevent injury or harm.
Using common sense
Being responsible and sensible in your work.
Consulting with your supervisor if you have any concerns.
Always consult the supervisor for any unsure concern to clarify. Need to follow the following under duty of care.
The service standards.
Your role and responsibilities.
The possible risks and hazards that may occur.
Possible risk management strategies.

8.4Human rights
Policies and procedures in a care facility should consider human rights considerations for making and implementing the individual care plans.
8.5 Discrimination
Implementing policies and procedures against discrimination can minimize or prevent mistreatment of clients. Ensuring equitable access to
aged care for everyone, regardless of race, culture, language, gender, economic circumstances, or geographic location, is essential.
8.6Mandator
y reporting
Report alleged or suspected reportable assaults to the police and the relevant department within 24 hours of the allegation or when the approved provider begins to suspect a reportable assault.
Notify the police and the relevant department within 24 hours of any alleged or suspected reportable assaults, or when the approved provider starts suspecting such an assault.
Implement reasonable measures to safeguard the identity of any staff member making a report and shield them from victimization.
8.7 Work role boundaries; responsibiliti
es and limitations
Individual support workers generally adhere to policies related to work role boundaries, delineating specific responsibilities and limitations within their roles. These details are typically outlined in the individual support worker's job description and employee handbook. Need to follow the guidelines of
the hand book.

1. Provide a brief description of each of the following basic human needs.
2. Explain briefly the concept of self-actualisation as it relates to individual support care.
Assessor Guide1 Page
Version No. 2.1 Produced 27 April 2018
Part 2: Independence and Well-being
Basic human needs
Descriptio
n
1.1 Physical
Basic human needs are food, drink, shelter, sleep and treatment of illness and injury. In addition warmth and exercise also identified as physical needs of human.
1.2 Psychological
The absence of mental illness refers to the psychological state of an individual who is functioning at a satisfactory level of emotional and behavioral adjustment.
1.3 Spiritual
The ability to fulfill one's needs and freely express one's faith, values, beliefs, principles, and morals.
1.4 Cultural
The capacity to engage in cultural activities and the freedom to preserve, interpret, and express one's arts, history, heritage, and traditions.
1.5 Sexual
Sexuality is a multifaceted need that encompasses an individual's feelings, thoughts, beliefs about their gender, physical and emotional requirements, and relationships with others. It is a lifelong characteristic that defines an individual's maleness or femaleness, and this definition may vary for each person.
Self-actualization is the aspiration for self-fulfillment, reflecting the motivation to achieve one's maximum potential and possibilities. In the later stages of life, the elderly often engage in self-
reflection, evaluating their lives for the attainment of self-actualization. The aging process can present
challenges for elders to reach higher levels of self-actualization, self-esteem, and social connection, often leaving them confined to the lower levels of survival.
Person-centered active support and strength-based approaches in care are designed to facilitate the client's journey towards self-actualization. These approaches aim to empower individuals in realizing their full potential and fostering a sense of fulfillment.

Life Stages
Descriptio
n
3.1 Infancy
This stage of lifespan is 0-1 year old. During the initial stage of life, children are entirely dependent on others for their care and support.
3.2 Early childhood
This stage of lifespan is 1-3 years old.
In this period increasing self-control of children is demonstrated through activities such as climbing, touching, exploring, and a general desire to accomplish tasks independently.
3.3 Preschool-age
This stage of lifespan is 3-5 years old.
As a child progresses, they transition from simple self-control to developing the ability to take initiative. Through play, they learn to plan, undertake, and carry out tasks.
3.4 School age
This stage of lifespan is 5-12 years old.
In a school setting, children start acquiring skills valued by society, and their success or failure in these endeavors can significantly impact
their feelings of adequacy.
3.5 Adolescence
This stage of lifespan is 12-18 years old.
Mental and physical maturation usher in new feelings, a transformed body, and fresh attitudes for the individual.
3.6 Early adulthood
This stage of lifespan is 18-40 years old.
After establishing a stable identity, individuals often experience a need to attain an essential quality of intimacy in their lives. This prepares them to share meaningful love or form deep friendships with others.
3.7 Adulthood
This stage of lifespan is 40-65 years old.
According to Erikson, the primary source of balance in mature adulthood is an interest in guiding the next generation. This quality, known as generativity, is expressed through caring about oneself, one's children, and the future.
3.8 Maturity
This stage of lifespan is 65+ years old.
In old age, a person engages in reflection, necessitating the ability to look back over a lifetime with a sense of acceptance and satisfaction. According to Erikson, the previous seven stages of life form the foundation for successful aging. A person who has lived richly and responsibly develops a sense of integrity, enabling them to face aging and death with dignity.

Requirements for good health
How it applies to older individuals
6.1 Mental health
Many adults lose their capacity for independent living due to factors like limited mobility, chronic pain, frailty, or other mental or physical challenges, necessitating some form of long-term care. Additionally, aging or disabled individuals may face events such as bereavement and a decline in socioeconomic status during retirement. These factors
can lead to isolation, loss of independence, loneliness, and psychological distress.
6.2 Nutrition and hydration
Older individuals and people with disabilities undergo various physical changes that accompany altered nutrition and hydration needs. Certain conditions linked to aging or specific disabilities may necessitate dietary restrictions, impacting the nutrition and hydration of older individuals.
6.3 Exercise
Engaging in regular physical activity is essential for maintaining strength and fitness, enabling individuals to continue doing activities they enjoy. Exercise is also recognized for its positive impact on mental health. However, initiating or sustaining a regular exercise routine can be challenging. Individuals may feel discouraged due to illness, ongoing health issues, or concerns about injuries or falls.
6.4 Hygiene
Maintaining clients' cleanliness is crucial for overall health. Poor hygiene can lead to skin complaints, infections, discomfort, and low self-esteem. Caregivers often encounter hygiene-related challenges, with some clients refusing to shower, bathe, change clothes, brush teeth, or clean their living spaces, all of which contribute to poor hygiene.
6.5 Lifestyle
Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is vital for clients as it serves to protect
them from diseases, aids in the fight against illnesses, and prevents the
worsening of chronic conditions. Additionally, sustaining a healthy lifestyle contributes to the holistic well-being of clients, encompassing
mental and emotional health.
6.6 Oral health
Upholding good oral health habits is crucial for clients as unhealthy bacteria in the mouth can not only harm teeth and gums but may also be linked to serious medical conditions. Poor oral health can also impact the client's eating habits and nutrition.
6. Provide a brief description of the following basic requirements for good health of an older individual or an individual with a disability.

11. Briefly describe the Residential Care Subsidy as a funding model.
12. Briefly describe the Home Care Subsidy as a funding model.
Assessor Guide1 Page
Version No. 2.1 Produced 27 April 2018
The ACFI (Aged Care Funding Instrument) concentrates on assessing care needs associated with day-
to-day, high-frequency requirements. These elements are suitable for evaluating the average cost of care in extended-stay environments.
.
The residential care subsidy is disbursed monthly, calculated by summing the amounts owed for each resident throughout the month. Providers submit a claim, including resident details, for subsidy reimbursement. An advance payment is received in the initial days of each month. This advance is later reconciled with the actual claim for that month, adjusting the subsequent month's payment accordingly—either through additional payment or a reduction in the total amount, compensating for the previous month's reconciliation.
Home care subsidy is generally paid monthly and is calculated by adding the amounts due for each recipient for each day of the month.
10. Briefly explain how the Aged Care Funding Instrument (ACFI) is used
to determine funding for aged care recipients.

Older individuals, for example, might be excluded from decision-making situations under the assumption that they cannot make logical or practical decisions independently. Consequently, their right to make choices is often not recognized.

a. The body regulates temperature in response to the environment, whether it's warm or cold. The hypothalamus, located in the brain, serves as the control center for body temperature. It initiates adjustments in sweat glands and muscles, influencing factors such as body hair, to maintain temperature balance.
b. While the normal core body temperature remains relatively constant with age, the ability of the body to regulate temperature diminishes. A reduction in subcutaneous fat makes it more challenging to stay warm. Additionally, the capacity to sweat decreases in the elderly, leading to difficulty in recognizing overheating. This places them at a heightened risk of heat stroke. Conversely, they are also susceptible to dangerous drops in temperature (hypothermia) when exposed to very cold environments.
a. The body regulates fluid and electrolyte composition through the kidneys by controlling the volume and composition of urine.
b. The kidney undergoes specific structural and functional changes with age, making it one of the major organs affected by aging. Despite these changes, the elderly can generally maintain water and electrolyte balance under normal conditions. However, illnesses, a decline in cognitive ability, and certain medications may pose a risk to this balance.
The liver performs various functions, including detoxification, protein synthesis, and producing biochemicals essential for digestion.
Sweat glands in the skin release fluid waste known as perspiration or sweat.

The skin serves as the initial defense against infection, protecting the external part of the body. Additionally, mucous membranes act as a partial barrier inside the body, offering defense in areas such as inside the eyelids, nose, mouth, lungs, and other internal regions. Engaging in at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity per week, such as brisk walking, ballroom dancing, tennis (doubles), or general gardening, is recommended. Alternatively, individuals can aim for at least 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity physical activity weekly, including activities
like race walking, jogging, running, swimming laps, aerobics, dancing, or heavy gardening. An equivalent combination of moderate and vigorous intensity activity is also encouraged. To gain additional health benefits, individuals are encouraged to elevate their moderate-intensity physical activity to 300 minutes per week or an equivalent duration. For those with poor mobility, engaging in physical activities like walking to improve balance and prevent falls is recommended three or more days per week. Additionally, muscle-strengthening activities involving major muscle groups, such as lifting weights and stair climbing, should be performed two or more days per week.
Clients with physical capability are encouraged to engage in active exercises
to maintain an active lifestyle. For those with physical limitations, passive exercises like Range of Motion (ROM) exercises are recommended. ROM exercises are particularly beneficial for clients with disabilities or stroke survivors experiencing mild to severe paralysis or paresis. These exercises help prevent muscle stiffness and spasticity, common post-stroke side effects that can limit coordination and muscle movement. Passive ROM exercises can not only aid in prevention but also be used as a treatment for spasticity.

Name: Abraham Chatzkel
Age: 91
Date of Birth: 16 January 20xz
Room #
: 23
Abraham’s Care Plan is provided on the following page.
Abraham Chatzkel is a new client at Lotus Compassionate Care. Abraham
never married and has no kids of his own. Before moving to the centre,
Abraham stayed with his niece, Abigail, her husband, Jacob, and their
two daughters, Aliya and Amira.
Abigail is a stay-at-home mother, taking care of Abraham and her two
kids. Abigail’s husband accepted a job in New York and moved there with
the rest of family. Abraham did not want to move to New York with them
and prefers to spend the rest of his life in Australia, where he has spent
the most of his life.
Due to the distance and the time difference, all communications between
the centre and the family are done via phone call or email.
Guidance: For the purpose of this assessment, Abraham’s first day
in the centre is 7 July, 20xx (current year).

Social History:
I was born in Israel. My mother is from Australia and my father is from Israel.
My family moved to Brisbane when I was 8. My father was the local grocery
shop owner, and on the weekends and afternoons after school, I helped in the
shop.
After I finished school I worked in my father’s shop until I went into the army
for two years. While I was in the army, I fought in the second world war.
When I left the army, I went back to work in the grocery shop, which I later
inherited from my father.
I returned home from the war after learning my little sister’s husband left her
and their daughter a few months after she was diagnosed with cancer. I took
care of my little sister and raised her daughter, Abigail, as my own after my
sister passed away in 1960. I never married.
Before I moved here, I lived with Abigail and her family. She married a nice
young man, Jacob, and they now have two lovely daughters, the twins, Aliya
and Amira. Abigail stopped working when she had the girls, and just stayed
home taking care of them, and also keeping me company.
I enjoy reading, especially stories about the time of the war. It reminds me of
the time I spent with my mates.
I was diagnosed with renal cell carcinoma which has now spread to other
parts of my body. I am now at Lotus Compassionate Care because my niece’s
family is moving to New York and I did not want to move with them. I want to
live the rest of my life here in Australia. With the twins old enough to go to
school, I think it is time Abigail go back to work and do things for herself. I am
finding it more and more difficult to complete activities of daily living without
assistance and I don’t want to be a burden to Abigail and her family.

Scenario 2: Abraham Feels Down
9
September,
20xx Abraham is an avid reader of books. Abigail promised Abraham
that she will send him new books every couple of weeks, so Abraham
can continue to enjoy his love of reading.
Two months later, Abraham still has not received any letters or books
from Abigail. You tried giving him books from the centre’s library but
he refused them. He told you that he does not want to read books
anymore.
Slowly, you noticed changes in Abraham’s disposition. You noticed
that he appears withdrawn, and rarely interacts with the other
residents and individual support workers at the centre.
In the morning, as you were about to help him get ready for his
morning walk, he very sadly tells you that he does not want to take a
walk, and he just wants to go back to sleep, hoping he does not wake
up anymore.
When you asked him why he feels this way, he tells you that he thinks
his family has already forgotten about him, and he wishes to just stop
waking up in the morning. He further asks you if you could just give
him ‘too much’ pain medication so all of his pain will go away.

o One (1) volunteer to play the role of Abigail, Abraham’s niece
You’ve spoken to your supervisor about Abraham’s situation. The
centre contacted Abigail and let her know that Abraham has been
feeling very sad about not having any news from his family. Abigail was
very surprised and explained that she’s been very busy but has been
sending letters and books to Abraham the past two months. She was
very worried about Abraham and scheduled a trip to the centre the
following week. Abigail also wanted to speak with you personally, as
she knows you provide direct care to Abraham.
With a volunteer (to play the role of Abigail), simulate a conversation
with Abigail to talk about Abraham, his care, and any questions Abigail
might have about Abraham’s conditions.
To ensure that the scenario provides you with the opportunity to
demonstrate the skills required for this task, use the following talking
points in your roleplay:

thoughts. How will I deal with that when I go talk to him? Should
I bring it up or should I just act like everything is normal?

October,
20xx Abraham shares his room in the centre with Antonio Iglesias. He
is originally from Spain. He loves listening to classic Latin music and
watching soccer on TV. They
often have their radio and TV on Antonio’s favourite Latin channels. As
Antonio
got older, he became more and more nostalgic about his motherland
and cannot stop talking about Spain; the food, the people, and the
places. Antonio is very friendly. He loves to share stories about his
adventures in Spain when he was younger. Antonio is also a devout
Catholic and a very conservative man.
On the other hand, although Abraham was born in Israel, he has spent
most of his life in Australia, and cannot relate to Antonio feeling
homesick. Unlike Antonio, Abraham is a very quiet and calm-natured
man. He likes to keep to himself, read books, or write in his journal.
Abraham has always been openly gay. Abraham still keeps a photo of
his late partner, Kevin, on his nightstand. This makes Antonio feel
uncomfortable. He often ends up preaching to Abraham about the sins
of being gay and its consequences according to the bible.
7.
Briefly describe the social, cultural and spiritual differences between Abraham and Antonio.
a) Social
b) Cultural
c) Spiritual
a. Abraham tends to be calm and quiet, spending his time reading books and writing in his journal alone. On the other hand, Antonio is more talkative, enjoys listening to music, watching soccer on TV, and frequently shares stories about his past adventures.
b. Abraham was born in Israel but has spent most of his life in Australia. He doesn't place a high value on Israeli culture and values. In contrast, Antonio has a strong attachment to his motherland, frequently discussing his past experiences in Spain and holding a deep appreciation for Spanish culture and values.
c. Abraham is openly gay, embracing his identity. In contrast, Antonio
holds a different perspective and expresses disapproval, preaching to Abraham about the perceived sins of being gay and citing consequences according to his interpretation of the Bible.

Case Study 2: Judith Comet
Name: Judith Comet
Age: 96
Date of Birth: 3 November 20xx
Room #
: 7
Judith has been staying in the centre the past four years.
Judith has 4 children. All of them have their own families and are
currently staying in different States across Australia. They have
decided to place Judith in a home after she had been diagnosed with
stage IV colon cancer four years ago. Having cancer at such an
advanced stage at Judith’s age, she was thought to have at least only a
year to live. She was always in a lot of pain and required regular and
constant assistance to complete activities of daily living. It was clear
that the family were unable to meet Judith’s needs, as it was becoming
too difficult for them to take care of her.
They decided to place Judith in the care of Lotus Compassionate
Care, hoping that it will provide her with a more comfortable
environment, with all the professional support she needs to ease the
symptoms, pain, physical stress, and mental stress brought about by
her condition for the remainder of her life.

Scenario 1: The Reunion
30 November 20xx, 1:25PM
Judith has been in your care since she arrived at the centre four years
ago. However, the last two months, you have been away on a holiday.
On your first day back, as you and another individual support worker
were about to hoist her from the bed and onto her wheelchair, you
noticed that Judith has sore, purple discolored and painful spots about
8cm across on both her shoulders, and a smaller one about 3cm
across on the back side of her head.
When she was on her side, you saw some bleeding through her pants
and on the bed sheets from the upper part of her buttocks. It appears
it has not been checked for at least a day or two. Her bed sheets were
stained and smelled of faeces and urine. She looked in pain. You asked
her if you could check what’s causing her pain. You found that she had
an open wound about 2cm across and the skin surrounding it was very
red and discoloured. Judith cringed in pain as you gently assessed the
condition of her skin.
You later found out that she has not been out of her bed in two days.
You asked her why she has not gone out of her bed, and she told you
that she’s just been feeling too tired lately and going out just takes too
much effort. She asked you if she could just stay in bed and rest today.
You noticed that she seems withdrawn. You also noticed that she’s lost
a lot of weight since the last time you saw her about two months ago.
1. List two (2) examples of changes in Judith’s physical condition that must be reported to the supervisors.
1. Have sore with purple discolored and painful spots about 8cm
across on both her shoulders, and a smaller one about 3cm across
on the back side of her head.

Scenario 2: Nurse Naja
30 November 20xx, 1:25PM
Judith asked you if you can get medication to help her with the pain.
She started feeling pain on her buttocks and both shoulders two (2)
days ago but did not tell anyone until you were back from your leave.
When you asked her why she did not tell anyone about it, she said
she did not want to bother the nurse.
This made you worry about Judith and asked her if there was
anything else that was bothering her. You found out that she has not
had any bowel movement in two (2) days, and urinating has started
to become painful for her.
She asked if you can clean her wounds and give her pain medication.
You explained to her that although you would love to help her, you
are not qualified to perform those procedures on clients.
You checked her care plan and found that her nurse’s name is Naja
Nielsson. You explained to Judith that registered nurse Naja Nielsson
would be the best person to clean her wounds and help her manage
her pain with medication as prescribed by her doctor.
Judith appeared worried when you mentioned the nurse’s name. She
hesitantly tells you that the pain is gone, and she feels fine. She tells
you she does not need the pain medication anymore.

Case Study 3: Maximilian Mills
Name: Maximilian Mills
Age: 85
No Care Plan is provided as
it is not required for you to
complete the tasks included
in this case study.
Maximilian Mills, or Max, is new at the centre. He was placed in the
centre by his second wife, Marcia. Max’s 1
st wife passed away from
cancer two and a half years ago. Max met Marcia, now 45-years-old, a
year later and got married soon after.
Max had a boating accident shortly after their wedding. He had hip
replacement surgery and is still recovering. The doctor advised that
Max should still be able to walk again with proper therapy. Max
remains positive and hopeful to get back on his feet, so he can go
home to his wife again.
Max was placed in the care of Lotus Compassionate Care after he was
released from the hospital. Marcia feels Max would receive better
care and support in the centre than at home with her. Max never had
any children from his first marriage. Marcia is his only remaining
family.

Scenario 1: The First Visit
It has been two (2) months since Max arrived at the centre, and
Marcia has not yet visited since. One morning Marcia arrived at the
centre to visit Max. She was carrying with her a basket of pastries and
a file folder.
The following day, you noticed Max staring blankly out his window
and looking very sad. You asked if he was okay.
Max explained that he was feeling sad because Marcia wants to sell
their house in the country to move to a smaller house in the city. She
says she is feeling lonely by herself in the big house and cannot take
care of it on her own. Marcia told Max that if they sell their house,
and move to a smaller house, they will be able to afford a private
nurse, so Max can stay home with her again. Marcia further
suggested that if Max does not want to sell the house, Marcia will
move to Darwin to live with her sister as she ‘simply cannot stay in
that big, old house by herself anymore’.
Max does not want to sell their house. He grew up in that house. But
at the same time, he wants to go home with Marcia. And he does not
want Marcia to move to Darwin.
Marcia will be back next week for Max’s decision, and it is putting a
lot of stress on Max. You often catch him sitting quietly in a corner
and staring blankly into space. There were also several times you’ve
heard him talking to himself, weighing the pros and the cons of
selling the house. This predicament is obviously putting a lot of
emotional and psychological stress on Max.
Although Max still tries to be cheerful and funny when you are
around, you see him by himself more and more often, instead of
watching TV with the other residents or playing chess with his
roommate, like he usually enjoys doing. This has also made his
roommate, Bobby worry about him. Bobby asked if you could talk to
Max about his problems.
Guidance: For the purpose of this assessment, the incident happened
on 15 June 20xx at 10:42 am.

Scenario 2: Back on His Feet
Max decided that he will not sell his house. Max promised himself that
he will religiously follow his therapy and will dedicate his time making
sure he is able to walk again.
The doctor stressed the importance of not over-exerting his affected
hip and making sure that he follows a healthy pace during these
physical therapy sessions. Max is prescribed to have his physical
therapy at a maximum of an hour per session, two sessions per day,
and with a minimum interval of 2 to 3 hours of rest.
During his spare time, Max is allowed to do other mild exercises as
long as they do not put a strain on his legs. Other than the hip surgery,
Max does not have other medical conditions.
