Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge required to analyse client health information and then to plan appropriate health services within scope of own role. It requires an in-depth knowledge of anatomy and physiology.This unit applies to individuals who plan and provide services with some level of autonomy. Some disciplines will require a state/territory regulatory determination regarding delegation and supervision.The skills in this unit must be applied in accordance with Commonwealth and State/Territory legislation, Australian/New Zealand standards and industry codes of practice
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

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 client health information

modelling of industry operating conditions, including:

analysis of health information of real people

integration of problem solving activities

Assessors must satisfy the Standards for Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) 2015/AQTF mandatory competency requirements for assessors.

Elements of Competency Performance Criteria              
Element: Elements define the essential outcomes
       
Element: Assess client health status
  • Analyse client health information in relation to planning services and in line with organisation requirements
  • Recognise normal readings on the findings of available tests, observations and physical assessments that assist in determining health status
  • Identify pathophysiologies, or changing pathologies, through observation, physical assessment and analysis of other available information
  • Identify the likely impact of specific interventions
       
Element: Plan action to address identified health status
  • Apply detailed understanding of anatomy, physiology and pathophysiology of disease to a problem solving approach to service planning.
  • Consider and note implications of any contra-indications in relation to health assessment findings.
  • Document action plan in accordance with organisation policies and procedures.
       


Evidence Required

List the assessment methods to be used and the context and resources required for assessment. Copy and paste the relevant sections from the evidence guide below and then re-write these in plain English.

PERFORMANCE CRITERIA

Elements define the essential outcomes

Performance criteria describe the performance needed to demonstrate achievement of the element

1. Assess client health status

1.1 Analyse client health information in relation to planning services and in line with organisation requirements

1.2 Recognise normal readings on the findings of available tests, observations and physical assessments that assist in determining health status

1.3 Identify pathophysiologies, or changing pathologies, through observation, physical assessment and analysis of other available information

1.4 Identify the likely impact of specific interventions

2. Plan action to address identified health status

2.1 Apply detailed understanding of anatomy, physiology and pathophysiology of disease to a problem solving approach to service planning.

2.2 Consider and note implications of any contra-indications in relation to health assessment findings.

2.3 Document action plan in accordance with organisation policies and procedures.

The candidate must show evidence of the ability to complete tasks outlined in elements and performance criteria of this unit, manage tasks and manage contingencies in the context of the job role. There must be evidence that the candidate has:

analysed the health information and planned services for least 6 different clients presenting with different conditions

assessed client health status based on:

observations

physical assessments

interpretation of client tests

The candidate must be able to demonstrate essential knowledge required to effectively complete tasks outlined in elements and performance criteria of this unit, manage tasks and manage contingencies in the context of the work role. This includes knowledge of:

role responsibilities and limitations for different members of the care team in relation to analysing health information and providing services

concepts underpinning human anatomy and physiology, including:

levels of structural organisation of body systems

human life processes

homeostasis and the relationship between homeostatic imbalance and disease

variations and abnormal findings of the structure and function of human body systems and their interactions:

cells, tissues and organs

cardiovascular system

respiratory system

musculo-skeletal system

endocrine system

digestive system

urinary system

reproductive system

integumentary system

lymphatic system

nervous system, including sensory systems – eye and ear

the special senses – smell, taste, vision, equilibrium and hearing

immune system

anatomical and medical terminology:

when referring to the human body

when taking measurements in different body systems

common disorders, problems and complaints associated with each body system and its components relevant to the services being provided

analysis of abnormal findings from diagnostic procedures and physical assessment

pathophysiology of diseases associated with each body system and the impact of disease on each body system and their related structures, especially in relation to potential impact of specific health procedures provided

recognition of the signs and symptoms of common clinical conditions and the (provisional) diagnosis of same

pharmacological processes and drug actions, indications and contraindications

effects of biological maturation and ageing processes on body systems and their components and in relation to specific health procedures provided

the impact of:

common environmental emergencies (diving, altitude, temperature)

overdose and poisoning

surgical insult

trauma (penetrating, blunt)

basic chemistry (molecules and compounds; chemical reaction, energy; acids and bases) and as related to metabolism, respiration, pH (respiratory and renal acidosis/alkalosis)

structure and function of cells, including:

basic understanding of cellular respiration/carbohydrate metabolism

cell/tissue requirements for survival

major types of cellular adaptation

transport systems:

active (primary) and passive (diffusion – simple, facilitated)

forces (hydrostatic and osmotic)

osmosis

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.
