ASSESSMENT 2: Part B -CASE STUDIES

 

Q1: CASE STUDY – Jenny

 

Mrs Jenny Jay is a client who has requested at home help for preparing meals. She wants a care worker for assistance in the task as she has mild sight problems, osteoporosis and arthritis. She currently uses a walking aid. The care worker conducted an assessment to identify what support Mrs Jay would require. It was found through this that she would need ongoing support for washing, dressing but encouragement from carers could allow Mrs Jay to become more independent in performing these tasks. The food delivery service she currently uses sends her frozen meals but she finds it hard to read the instructions for heating the food due to the slight visual impairment. This has led to many burnt meals, frustrating Mrs Jay.

 

1).   Why are strong oral communication skills important in the care worker in this scenario?

 

2).  How can the carers help without completely removing Mrs Jay’s sense of independence? Make some suggestions of modifications.

 

3).  What are the ideal outcomes of the assistance provided?

 

Q2: CASE STUDY: Mr D

 

Mr D is 80 years old and lives alone. He was actively involved in the local community until he experienced a stroke earlier in the year. As a consequence of the stroke, Mr D started becoming more fearful of simple activities due to his poor balance. He refuses to go out on his own ad has reduced the amount of house chores such as vacuuming, laundry and gardening he does. An assessor came to evaluate Mr D’s needs.

 

1).  How should the assessor approach this situation?

 

2).  If Mr D requires a care worker, suggest an ideal solution in which he still retains his sense of control over his own life.

SIMULATION OBSERVATION (OBS)

 

Q1. All Students: Role Play

 

Scenario: Below is a scenario where you either develop a map by working in groups or role play accordingly as asked in the scenario.

Role Play Instructions:

 

Form a group of 3-5 people.

 

One of you is Mr Yolker, a 73 year old man who has recently moved into residential aged care. Another one of you is the social worker his friends contact to report concerns that he has been forced into residential care against his will and that his son, Clark, is selling off his house against his wishes. The friends report that the aged care facility is not allowing them to visit Mr Yolker, under instructions from his son, who has told the facility that they are undesirable characters who frequently borrow money from Mr Yolker without paying it back.

 

The social worker visits Mr Yolker at the facility and he asserts that he did not want to leave home, but was convinced by Clark that he was here for ‘respite’, as a temporary measure. The social worker discovers that Mr Yolker has signed over an enduring power of attorney to his son, as he has told him frequently over the last couple of years that he is ‘losing his mind’ and is not capable of looking after his finances anymore. Mr Yolker tells the social worker that his friends have borrowed money from him in the past but have always paid it back, and says he would like them to be able to visit him.

 

The social worker and Mr Yolker meet with the facility manager, played by another person in the group, and explain that Mr Jeffries would like his friends to be able to visit. The social worker reminds the manager that it is Mr Yolker’s right to decide who visits him, and not his son’s. With assistance from the social worker, the facility manager organises an appointment with a psychogeriatrician, played by another team member, who tests Mr Yolker’s mental capacity and reports that he shows no signs of mental impairment. The psychogeriatrician says that Mr Yolker has decision-making ability and is perfectly capable of managing his own affairs if he wishes to.

 

Act out this scenario as appropriate, in front of your supervisor, and complete the script in a way your group believes is the most effective solution to the issue.
