Your Open Colleges Work Place Assessor (WPA) will conduct workplace for
key Portfolio tasks. These are identified by the use of the following text:

This task must be assessed in the workplace by your Open Colleges Work Place
Assessor (WPA).

(S/NYS):

A workplace visit will be arranged through discussions with your WPA, and
will take place approximately half way through your work placement. The
visit serves to enable observation/demonstration of these key tasks. Take
every opportunity to practice these tasks with your colleagues or
supervisor in advance of your WPA visit. You may also need to prepare
some task documentation in readiness for your WPA visit. If so, this will be

clearly indicated in the relevant task instructions. Where required, your
WPA may also ask a short contingency question based on the task.

Your WPA will deem your assessment performance as either Satisfactory


(S) or Not Yet Satisfactory (NYS). Where your assessment performance is
deemed NYS, you will be required to participate in the relevant
assessment again.

Before you move onto the last part of the portfolio, make sure you have

Interview 1 Date of interview: 12/05/21

Interview conducted with a colleague / client (delete as necessary)

Topics discussed (20-50 words):

My topic discussed with a client was preferences of food.

Interview notes (50-100 words) include notes about the communication skills (verbal and non-verbal) you used
during the interview:

Clients culture beliefs were different to mine, due to beliefs client is unable to eat pork, but
enjoys chicken, client had good communication skills and was happy to participate.

Interview 2 Date of interview: 15/05/21

Interview conducted with a colleague / client (delete as necessary)

Topics discussed (20-50 words):

Religious Beliefs

Interview notes (50-100 words) include notes about the communication skills (verbal and non-verbal) you used
during the interview:

The client does not have good communication skills, so I referred to the care plan and the
client's daughter attended and answered questions to help the resident with her religious beliefs.
I also didn’t interrupt them while they prayed before eating, she was very grateful.

Interview 3 Date of interview: 16/05/21

Interview conducted with a colleague / client (delete as necessary)

Topics discussed (20-50 words):

My topic is culture values- A culture's values are its ideas about what is good, right, fair, and
just.

Interview notes (50-100 words) include notes about the communication skills (verbal and non-verbal) you used

The Daughter had a non-judgment approach and was happy to be interviewed about their
culture values. A Jewish resident here does not celebrate Christmas due to culture values, but
he does still participate in hanging up lights, decorating the tree, eating candy canes but the
Jewish man and daughter and rest of family don’t do presents and they don’t get together for
Christmas, but they do for new year’s. Instead of them greeting everyone with merry Christmas
they say happy holidays but doesn’t get offensive when someone greets them a merry
Christmas.

Reflecting on the three interviews you conducted, consider whether there were any situations where
misunderstandings occurred. If not, think of a situation where a misunderstanding could occur due to diversity.
Discuss how you would respond to this.

What was the situation where a misunderstanding occurred? (50-100 words)

The part where there was a misunderstanding was when I asked about how many times she
prays during the day / night and the woman got a misunderstanding when I didn't really explain
my self-esteem enough and she gave me a weird look and that's where I knew I had phrased my
question incorrectly. So, I had to repeat the question so that she could understand, and she
could answer my question.

How did you respond to this situation? (50 – 100 words)

I answered with a clearer question and explained myself better and apologized for the way I
phrased it as I think it offended her a little as she looked at me strangely, answered with just a
number and left it as it is.

festivals or a particular activity. Document your findings in a written report, identifying any risks
that could be associated with this activity and share this with the client. Include the client’s
response in your report (approximately 150 words in total).

Task 2 - Personal goals written report

(approx. 150 words)

1. What is the goal/activity of the client from their care plan?

For Margaret to keep doing Physiotherapists

2. What research did you do?

I have researched what a real physical therapist does, and it helps to improve mobility and
physical independence. Physical therapists offer treatments including pain relief, manual therapy,
and exercise. Helping residents with individual needs, helping to reduce pain and optimize
strength, mobility, and physical independence.

3. What information did you find out about the availability and accessibility of the particular goal or activity of the
client?

This service is accessible and available twice a week, but he is at the facility 7 days a week, you
will need to book in to be able to see a physiotherapist.

4A. Did you find out any other useful information for the client regarding this particular goal or activity?

Margarete has a lot of pain in her legs and knees so her seeing a physiotherapist help with:

ailments that arise as she gets older, arthritis, increasing strength, reduced mobility and general stiffness,
reducing the possibility of injury or illness, choosing the right walking aid for Margaret.

4B. How could this activity be adapted if necessary?

Activities can be adapted and tried another time if they were not successful or enjoyable the first
time. Use times that suits Margret’s best level of functioning to achieve the most success when
carrying out activities, consider the times of the day when Margarete is at her best.

4C. How would you support empowerment in this activity?

By encouraging Margarete to do your physio and to advise Margarete as to which steps, she
should take and provide feedback. I won’t pressure her into it but I will guide her the right way
and let her no what she will benefit out of it.

5A. What are the risks associated, if any?

No risk physiotherapist can treat you if you have a problem with pain or


movement. Physiotherapy could help you become more mobile and make you more comfortable.

5B. How would you respond to them?

I won’t need to respond to them as it is the physiotherapist job but if there was a risk, I would

Resolution at each level involves reducing the risk level to a lower level of risk
 Extreme – requires immediate assessment with management consideration. A detailed plan, regular
monitoring and reporting is required with a target resolution within 1 month timeframe
 High – requires immediate assessment with senior staff consideration, planning and reporting. Target
resolution should ideally be within 3 months
 Medium – reviewing of existing controls and planning required. Resolution timeframe should be within 1 year
 Low – the risk may be tolerable and controlled if managed with high quality process and procedures.
