Describe the roles and responsibilities of staff in relation to infection prevention and control in a health or social care workplace
P5-Describe the roles and responsibilities of staff in relation to infection prevention and control in a health or social care workplace In this assignment I am going to be writing about the roles and responsibilities of; * Care workers * Managers * Specialist health workers * Environmental health officers * Health protection units * Non- care workers * Visitors Care workers Care workers, such as health care assistance, social care assistants and senior health and social care workers, all have different kinds of roles and responsibilities that they have to follow. They have to always be aware of and report changes in the health conditions of the individuals that they support. They also have a responsibility to assist with keeping work areas, and equipment clean, tidy and free from infection hazards. They are also encouraged to maintain good personal hygiene for themselves as well as their service users. For example, helping service users bathe, use the toilet and change remove and dispose of any soiled clothing. Another responsibility they hold is preparing and maintaining environment before and after episodes of patient care. They are also required to carry out general household duties, including, cleaning and making beds, decontaminating equipment, clearing up any spillages that may occur and disposing of any clinical waste. It is also very important for some
The Main Body Systems
The cardiovascular system The key features of the cardiovascular system are the heart, blood, and blood vessels such as veins, arteries and capillaries. It provides pulmonary circulation where blood is sent to the lungs to be is oxygenated; and systemic circulation so the oxygenated blood can be delivered to the rest of the body. Blood consists of plasma, red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. in pulmonary circulation Oxygen deprived blood travels to the heart by the vena cava after being used by the body. The blood then enters the right atrium of the heart and flows through the tricuspid valve into the right ventricle, from which it is then pumped through the pulmonary semilunar valve into the pulmonary artery to the lungs. Gas exchange occurs in the lungs, whereby CO2 is released from the blood, and oxygen is absorbed. The pulmonary vein returns the now oxygen-rich blood to the heart. Following this it is pumped around the rest of the body as systemic circulation. The respiratory system The respiratory system is responsible for the gaseous exchange that takes place between the circulatory system and the external environments. Air is inhaled through the upper airways, such as the nasal cavity, through the trachea and into the small bronchioles and alveoli within the lung tissue. While inhaling the external intercostal muscles contract, moving the ribcage up

P1: explain three different approaches to health education. P2: explain two models of behaviour changes that have been used in recent national health education campaigns. M1: compare three different approaches to health education. Introduction Health education authorities use different approaches to promote health education. They use different ways such as social marketing like posters on busses and the marketing is based on the focusing on what people need help with and how to help them to stop their habits and also to help them know about the risks that they are putting themselves, in order to promote the health education criteria the authorities joined forces with big organisation like big super market managers and use the media networks in order to be able to pass information to the public of the illness and harm that can be caused and the risks that they can prevent by keeping safe and introducing a safer way of prevention. And indeed for all these to be possible the authorities needed the support of the public and so they use social-economic to get the public involved and participate in the promotion of a local organisation and network for them but only by attaining the right training. However I will only be explaining three different approaches to Health Education-: Change 4 Life, Jaime Oliver's school dinners and NHS. P1: Change 4 life-: Eat well-Move more-live
Use a range of sources of evidence to explain the factors that have influenced the development of Shirleys self-concept.
A. Use a range of sources of evidence to explain the factors that have influenced the development of Shirley's self-concept. Include information about: * Own personal identification * Secondary influences * Comparison made with other people's roles Own personal identification: Personal identification is anything that can be used to identify an individual. Personal identification is very important for a person because this is the way people can recognise who you are for the qualities and values one individual may represent. Our personal identification splits 'self' into two parts. When two parts are combined we become aware that although our values, beliefs, and regard for ourselves may change, depending on how others react to us, there is continuity of identity throughout our lives. For example Shirley as being a child would have learn a sense who she is through the process of identification, e.g. around the age of 5-6 children identify their same sex parent, Freud felt that this was the most natural development and it was necessary in order for a child to develop normally into adulthood, this was not the case with Shirley since She was a unwanted child from birth this affected her self-identification as she did not know who she is and where she belongs. And it had taken her longer to figure out her same sex parent, as she was not receiving the love and affection as

Explain the reason why children and young peoples development may not follow the expected pattern.
3.2 Explain the reason why children and young people's development may not follow the expected pattern. Disability: Resources, equipment, facilities. Possibility of restrictions due to disability i.e. child/young person is unable to use certain parts of there body/communication, therefore they are unable to develop fully in those area. Emotional: May not have a high level of confidence - this could restrict and obstruct emotional attachments, bonding with others. If a child or young person is uncomfortable with conveying and expressing emotion this could effect the emotional development. Children and young people who struggle with emotional development may prefer their own company, therefore their personal space is very important to them. If a child is shown little or no emotional attachment when growing up they could find it considerably difficult to illustrate emotions later in life. If a child is witness to any kind of physical or mental abuse whist developing and growing up, this could effect how they value or control their own emotional feelings. Physical: Physical growth of the child or young person may be a factor that affects the physical development process. Environment: If the child or young person does not live or associate around a multi cultural society they will not develop the necessary environmental skills. Rural areas may not have the relevant
Explain how children and young peoples development is influenced by a range of external factors
2.2 Explain how children and young people's development is influenced by a range of external factors POVERTY AND DEPRIVATION Negative Factors * Poor Health - Not having a varied range of good quality food or nutrition available. Limited access if any to medical treatments/supplies. * Appearance/Personal Hygiene - Not having the appropriate or necessary items, to keep appearances or hygiene to an acceptable level. * Poor Education - Unable to attend school, truancy, unable to afford resources both in and out of school i.e. at home therefore not encouraging the child or young person to progress in their development away from school. * Crime - High levels of crime may surround the child. This could influence the child to be involved within crime. * Social Skills - Poor social skills due to environment, poor education. * Cramped Housing - May share a room with several other children, this can lead to cramped spaces for children, not enough room to play, no personal space, no room to develop. EDUCATION, AFTER SCHOOL CLUBS, PARENT INVOLVEMENT, BOARDING SCHOOLS Positive Factors * Good Teachers, Good Facilities/Resources - Child or young person is encouraged to learn and develop, the child or young person WANTS to be involved and WANTS to learn, the child or young person is receiving a high quality of education due to correct resources, facilities and training. A child or
P3: Explain in the potential effect of discriminatory practice on those who use health or social care service
P3: Explain in the potential effect of discriminatory practice on those who use health or social care service Bases of discrimination Culture: The family are experiencing discrimination against their culture from their neighbours. This is because the family may have different views and believes, dress differently and eat certain types of food that other people may not know about and understand. This is based on the social interactions that they have been brought up in and their community that they lived in. because of the behaviour that their neighbours are showing the Hussein family feel that they cant make any friends and go out so they keep themselves to themselves. Health status: The Hussein family have a physically disabled grandmother that is 85 years of age which means that she should be receiving free medical service. Sometimes in health and social care settings people may be discriminated against depending on who is more ill than others. Because of this the grandmother may not receive the care that she requires or may be kept waiting for a long time to receive treatment. But because the family are reluctant to go out they may not be aware of this form of discrimination. Disabilities: The physically disabled grandmother may be discriminated against due to her disability by health care workers. Depending on the ability that the grandmother has she could be
Understand concepts of equality, diversity and rights in relation to health and social care- P2 use recognized terminology to explain the importance of promoting equality, recognizing diversity and respecting rights in health and social care settings
Unit 2 Task B The Active promotion of equality and Individual rights in health and social care setting; All workers that work in the health, social care and early year's sector have to respect the Care Value Base. This will then promote service users rights because they have a right to be treated with dignity, respect, treated as an individual and protected from abuse etc. The principles of care value base are; The promotion of anti-discriminatory practice. The promotion and support of dignity, independence and safety. Respect for, and acknowledgment of, personal beliefs and an individual's identity. The maintenance of confidentiality. Protection from harm and abuse. The promotion of effective communication and relationships. The provision of personalised (individual) care. In all care settings, putting the patient at the centre of the service provision is essential, as it is important to make sure that the patient gets everything that is required to a satisfactory standard. The patient or client is the most important person, as they require the help and attention. Providing active support is about giving people enough support to enable them to gain more control and more independence. It is about letting people do what they want, and supporting them with fulfilling their goals. And becoming what they want to be. Following the care value base in our everyday work with
Unit 17. Provide an explanation of three different international approaches to learning.
CACHE DCCE UNIT 17 09/621764 306.000 Andrea Maria Fernandes [INTERNATIONAL APPROACHES TOWARDS CHILDREN'S EDUCATION ] International approaches towards children's education. E1. Provide an explanation of three different international approaches to learning. Friedrich Froebel Friedrich Froebel was born in Germany in 1782-1852. Frobel believed that children should be able to access indoor and outdoor play freely "An outdoor environment is vital to children's learning" (Tassoni.P, 2007. p280) this is because he said that children need to have stimulation to move on to the next stages of development. In practice today child centred approach is used which Frobel theory covers. Froebel also believed that children learned at a higher level through imaginative play. In addition Froebel believed that parents are a child's first educators of a child's life. This is when the child is at an early age and the parents become their educator by teaching them how to stand, talk, walk, and hold objects and to communicate. This is why in setting today they try and make is a family settings. Maria Montessori Maria Montessori was a doctor who graduated in Italy at the top of her class. Despite being ill treated because she was the only female in her class, she passed the course and became the first female doctor in Italy 1896. She believed that children under the age of 6 seemed to
