Assessment Task 4 Work Placement Observation.
This assessment task is a continuation of Assessment Task 3.
Your Assessor will organise to observe you with each client identified in Assessment Task 3. The Assessor must have access to each clients case management file (which you prepared in Assessment Task 3) to enable them to complete the workplace observations.
The skills outlined in the workplace observations spreadsheet underneath must be demonstrated by you in the workplace or in a simulated environment that reflects workplace conditions.
The workplace must be a service that provides services to people with mental health issues.
You and the Trainers/Assessors must ensure that the clients right to privacy and confidentiality with regards to personal details are upheld at all times.
Where simulation is used, it must reflect real working conditions by modelling industry operating conditions and contingencies, as well as using suitable facilities, equipment and resources.
If a simulated workplace is required, the Assessor will need to nominate the same persons who acted as the clients in Assessment Task 3 to act in the same roles in this task.
You will be assessed according to the criteria in the work placement observation checklist underneath.
When you meet with the client you must:
- Ask questions and confirm understandingwork in a way that prioritises the persons right to direct their recovery.
- Show that you are supporting the client with regards to understanding and exercising their rights by providing information regarding their rights.
- Collect and interpret information about the clients needs. Establish if the needs have changed or not.
- Discuss services and strategies that support the clients empowerment and recovery.
- Discuss the clients goals.
- If the client requests adaption of services, to meet the clients specific needs and requirements outline the organisationss policy and procedures.
- If the client is experiencing distress or crisis show that you can response is prompt and supportive.
- If the client needs are outside your knowledge, ability and work role, make a referral to another service (either in writing by email or letter or verbally by telephone). You must however ensure that you are working within the organisational guidelines and discuss with your workplace supervisor before you make the referral.

Reasonable Adjustments
|
Students with carer responsibilities, cultural or religious obligations, English as an additional language, disability etc. can request for reasonable adjustments. Please note, academic standards of the unit/course will not be lowered to accommodate the needs of any student, but there is a requirement to be flexible about the way in which it is delivered or assessed. The Disability Standards for Education requires institutions to take reasonable steps to enable the student with a disability to participate in education on the same basis as a student without a disability. The trainer/assessor must complete the section below Reasonable Adjustment Strategies Matrix to ensure the explanation and correct strategy have been recorded and implemented. The trainer/assessor must notify the administration/compliance and quality assurance department for any reasonable adjustments made. All evidence and supplementary documentation must be submitted with the assessment pack to the administration/compliance and quality assurance department. |
