Assessment Task 2 – Case Studies for CHCCCS015 Case
Study 1 – Mr Slade
Mr Slade is a new resident in the nursing home. The Clinical Nurse, Robyn, was assessing him as
part of his initial Care Plan development. While walking with him to the interview room, she
noticed he was limping and his trouser leg was slightly stained. She asked him about his limp and
its cause. He dismissed her question with ‘Oh, it’s only a scratch from where I caught my leg on
the edge of a cupboard’. Robyn persisted with her enquiries and persuaded Mr Slade to lift his
trouser leg. Here the ‘scratch’ had turned into a weeping ulcer. Appropriate wound management
and referral to the doctor for medication were immediately included in the Care Plan.
Discuss this case study in terms of how data may be collected for a client’s Care Plan.
The data might be collected for the care plan of the client by the way of observation, health survey
will be done. All details regarding the reason of limping problem and weeping ulcer will be written
down.
Stella is a hostel resident. She experiences problems with her eyes, and has had eye drops
prescribed by her doctor. Alice, an experienced AIN, was showering Stella recently and she told
Alice that these eye drops were rarely instilled into her eyes. Alice immediately went to the RN,
who confirmed that the prescription had been obtained. Unfortunately, an oversight in recording
the instructions for carers to assist with instilling the eye drops had occurred.
In Summer Villa Nursing Home all client records are stored and maintained in the Care Station
of each wing. This is also the case for the Iris Wing where the clients suffering from dementia
are located. To ensure security of documentation, each Care Station is locked. The RN on duty
holds the key to the Care Station. Staff members maintain the clients’ records while within the
Care Station. The Care Station is locked when the carer who was completing documentation
vacates the station to resume other duties.
In this case study, comment on the measures taken to secure client confidentiality and assess
whether these measures meet the standard for storing client records.
The client health records of all types will be covered by the National Privacy Principles. The record of
the client will be kept confidential and is not required to be left anywhere other people might view
the client record’s written details. The health care professionals of the Summer Villa Nursing Home
will only be having the access to such documents. The designing security systems will be done for
recording the access and the databases to the company can become highly valuable.
Edith, an 89-year-old widow, had recently been admitted to the dementia unit of a residential
aged-care facility. Edith has been admitted because she was found wandering aimlessly around
her 1,000 hectare property west of Bourke, with no idea of who or where she was. It was
obvious from her disheveled appearance that Edith had been outside for a number of days, and
that she was no longer able to look after herself.
Her past history was obtained from the members of her local community. Edith had been born,
raised, and married in this community, and had lived there all her life. She had been the only girl
in a family of 14 children. Her father had been a farmer and her mother had died following
childbirth when Edith was nine years old. Because she was the only female, she was expected to
take on her mother’s role and look after the family. She had received no formal education and
was illiterate.
Edith had married George, a cattle farmer, when she was 17 years of age. She had given birth to
six children, who had all predeceased her. Throughout her adult life she had worked to subsidise
the farm. During the day she had worked at the local shop, and in the evenings she had served
behind the bar at the local pub. George had died when Edith was 56 years old.
On admission to the Fitzroy Falls Aged-Care Facility, Edith’s medical diagnoses were listed as:
o Korsakoff’s syndrome;
o Congestive cardiac failure;
o Osteoarthritis;
o Traumatic amputation of the first three fingers
of her right hand (three years previously);
o Total deafness in the right ear, and limited
hearing in the left ear;
o Infected sores on both of her lower legs;
o Dehydration and malnutrition; and
o Incontinence of urine
o After examination and assessment the
following data were identified;
o Weight 46kgs; height 174cms;
o Mucous membrane pale; skin turgor
markedly decreased;
o 27 suppurating lesions on the lower legs
(infected insect bites);
o Hearing severely impaired; no hearing aid;
o Vision not impaired when wearing spectacles;
o Incontinent of urine only early in the morning;
o Constant pain in knees, elbows, fingers, and back;
o Unable to button clothes or hold cutlery;
o Refused all food and frequently stated: “I’m not
eating that muck”;
o When offered fluids, stated: “I want a real drink”; and
o Continually wandered and tried to abscond,
stating that she ‘needed to get home to feed the
cattle and dogs’.
To develop the care plan for Edith you need to analyse the collected data and place a priority
rating on each issue requiring intervention.
The most important issue should be placed first in the care plan, followed by the next most
important, then the third, fourth, fifth and so on until all issues are placed in descending order of
importance If each issue is placed on a separate page, the order of priority can readily be
changed to reflect revised assessments.
Using the information you develop here use a blank proforma from the Care plans from the
Fitzroy Falls Aged Care Facility, next page, and fill in the details – keep this care plan as part of
your ongoing assessment.

considerations:
Direct Observation Practical Assessment and Observation Instructions
Tasks and
Instructions
Skills must have been demonstrated in the workplace or in a simulated
environment that reflects workplace conditions. The following
conditions must be met for this unit:
use of suitable facilities, equipment and resources, including:
Range of Conditions
individualised plans and equipment outlined in the plan
infection control policies and procedures
modelling of standard industry operating conditions and contingencies,
including involvement of real people when using relevant equipment
ALL STUDENTS:
You are to perform satisfactorily the following parts for this direct observation;
Part 1: IF SIMULATED
Role Play
Scenario: The Learner works at an aged care centre called Fitzroy Falls Aged Care Facility, where to
help facilitate consistency and relationship building each care worker normally cares and supports
the same people. However, one of the Learner’s colleagues (Michael Davis) has left the
organisation to move inter- state and the Learner is now required to take over the support of one
of the people he worked with named Elizabeth Leicester.
Role Play Instructions: A fellow classmate or colleague is to play the role of Elizabeth Leicester. The
Learner has been introduced to Liz and now the Learner must have a conversation with Liz and try
to build rapport and establish a relationship. The Learner must also discuss the ongoing relevance
of the care plan
with Liz and then finally complete all relevant documentation. The Learner and person who plays
the role of Liz must read the care plan (Appendix A - that follows) and try to act in these roles.
The last time the care plan was revised was three months ago and since then there has been two
areas where Liz may need extra care with that she didn’t have before. One of the other carers
commented that it may be helpful for Liz to have a wheeled walker as she has been having
difficulty with walking since her knee replacement. Liz has also been forgetting to brush her
teeth in the evening and after meals and so may need a reminder for this.
The Learner is to have the introduction meeting with Liz and go through the care plan to assess if
there are other changes that need to be made other than or in addition to the two previously
mentioned.
Throughout the assessment the Learner will be asked questions in conjunction with the role play
and questions that may not relate to the specific situation that he/she is involved in. This is so that
if the role play does not have a specific element that is required to be assessed in, he/she will still
fulfill the criteria.
Part 2:
In order to provide evidence in competently completing this unit you are to use individualised
plans either from the proforma in your learner’s pack or from the place of your employ. You are
to complete these
individualised plans in accordance with the organisations protocols. You are to ensure they are
checked as being correct by your supervisor and have them signed off as being correct You are to
ensure you manage the tasks and the contingencies in your work role so that you provide
evidence you have completed these tasks as outlined in the elements and performance criteria of
this unit.
In order to achieve consistency of performance, evidence should be collected over a set
period of time which is sufficient to include dealings with an appropriate range and variety of
situations.
You will be required to check your progress with the trainer/ assessor at the completion of each part
of the assessment before commencing the next.
The trainer/ assessor will inform you of any significant errors or misjudgements throughout the
procedure and give valuable feedback to you for the rectification of the problem.
If the result of the assessment is that you are Not Yet Satisfactory, you may be required to
retake the assessment.
1. ROLE PLAY
I introduced myself to Liz while saying, ‘Good morning Liz I am John and I will be your carer from today’.
I will make efforts for having conversation with Liz so that information of Liz can be obtained. While
doing the same I will be careful regarding the manner I am presenting myself to Liz like being courteous,
gentle, polite, eye contact, talking on facts, simple as well as the short sentences which will be easy for
her in understanding etc. so that the rapport can be build. I will be discussing with her about her care
plan and will be trying to see if the same is existing and if the same meets her needs or not. If needs are
not met, I will be reporting the same to my supervisor following the policies as well as procedures of the
organization. More importantly on the basis of case scenario, there exists two major areas where help is
wanted by Liz i.e. wheeled walker need for walking as well as require the daily routine so that her ALDs
can be maintained. I will be discussing with Liz regarding the manner I can prepare that for her so that
her needs can be met. Once the information is obtained, the calendar will be prepared by me and the
same will be put on the walls where Liz can clearly view.
I will be having the thorough discussion with Liz and the sort of help needed will be found out and in
case the same are mentioned on the care plan or not. In case I find the information not matching the
care plan, I will be reporting to my supervisor as well as putting the information on the progress role for
the supervisor for updating the care plan as well as other staffs.
