For this there is a two way process included for effective communication. This process helps the other individual to understand the opinion of the other individuals. This also includes the procedure of checking understanding, using active or even reflective thinking. Michael Argyle had strong points of view that inter personal communication skill that is can be learned and developed. He made a communication cycle that had a code that you had to translate. This also meant that you had to work out what the opposite individuals behaviour was. Furthermore communication cycle meant that you have to interpret ide code what others are communicating and adds to you also adapting your own behaviour to have effective communication but this can also mean non-verbal and verbal communication do not have to be straight forward. The communication cycle is up-front and it goes step by step. * An idea occurs: this is when the individual knows they want to start communicating.

Unit 10 - Explain why children may be taken into care. Describe types of neglect and abuse.

Lissa Williams Unit 10 – Caring for children and young people Pass one – Outline why children and young people may need to be looked after away from their families Children’s Act 1989, 2004 Section 3 (1) in this act parental responsibility means all rights, duties, power, responsibilities and authority which by law a parent or a child has in relation to the child and their property. Children’s Act 1989, describes how local authorities should carry out their responsibilities in relation to care planning, placement and case review for looked after children. These responsibilities are designed to support the local authority in its primary duty set out in section 22(3) of the 1989 Act to safeguard and promote the welfare of the looked after child and to act as good corporate parents to enable each looked after child to achieve his/her full potential in life. A key principle of the 1989 Act is that children are best looked after within their families, with their parents playing a full part in their lives, unless compulsory intervention in family life is necessary. Children in Care This is where the local authority has gone to court for a care order, usually against a parents’ wishes. The local authority may place the child with relatives, with foster carers or in a community (or residential) home until he/she’s 18 years old or the court end the order. Under

Health problems can rise in America, whereas in the United Kingdom it can be very low.

P4: Explain potential differences in care needs of individuals at different life stages

P4: Explain potential differences in care needs of individuals at different life stages Whatever life stage that a person is undergoing they will have certain care needs. These care needs can be placed into several categories. In this essay I will be explaining the care needs of individuals during infancy, childhood, adolescence, adulthood and old age. I will explain how these care needs can be similar at each life stage but also be comparing the different life stages and explaining how care needs may be different. The categories that I will be using when explaining these care needs are physical care needs, intellectual care needs, emotional care needs and social care needs. Every individual has physical, intellectual, emotional and social care needs. Physical care needs are to do with our bodies and trying to maintain the effective functioning of our bodies. Intellectual care needs involve the mind and brain and the need to learn new things and keep the mind and brain functioning effectively. Emotional care needs involve our feelings and being able to understand our own feelings as well as other peoples feelings. Finally our social care needs involve a person’s relationships and maintain health social relationships. It is important that all of these care needs are provided for people at different life stages for them to grow and develop as a healthy individual person.

Effective Communication

Describe The Stages Of The Communication Cycle And Reflect On Your Own Experiences To Explain How The Cycle May Be Used To Communicate Difficult, Complex And Sensitive Issues (P2, M1) There are many ways of communicating with people such as speaking, and using sign language but to do so effectively requires a cycle. It s called the communication cycle for obvious reasons and like the ability to communicate it is innately built, individuals do it automatically. To carry out the cycle successfully two or more parties must be present. Communicating involves expression of thought and interpretation of the other parties understanding. There are six phases of the communication cycle, the first is expressing your own thoughts, the second is watching the other person non verbal response and body language. Thirdly is interpreting the other person's body language and trying to work out what he or she is thinking, next is listening to his or her response to what we have said, following this is trying to make sense of his or her response. Finally the original speaker expresses new ideas to try and clarify our ideas. For a simplified version see the diagram below (www.dyad.org) However using the communication cycle doesn't mean that it is correctly used all the time, sometimes people listen but they do not hear just what the other person is trying to discuss, to use the communication

Job Descriptions

TUI UNIVERSITY Jennifer Pope Module 2 Session Long Project 324: Human Resource Management Dr Robert Grice 28 April 2010 Job Descriptions Hiring and retaining a quality employee is difficult. That is why a good hire starts with an excellent job description. Job descriptions are crucial for hiring and retaining the best workers. Often employees are lead to believe a job is one thing only to be disappointed to find that the employment is not as satisfying and challenging. The result is an employee who is difficult to motivate. The Importance of Job Descriptions. Basically, job descriptions are written statements that describe the duties, responsibilities, contributions, and qualifications of a position, as well as the reporting relationship of a particular job. (Anonymous, 2009) So the job description tells you what you actually need to do to perform well in the job. While the parts of a job description vary between employers according to one source the standard parts are: . Purpose: What is the job in the simplest terms. 2. Job duties or responsibilities: What should the employee be able to perform as part of the position? 3. Education required: List minimum amount of formal education. 4. Payroll experience required: the minimum amount of experience required to perform the job duties 5. Specialized skills: skills needed that are outside of the normal to

learning styles

Different people learn in different ways, this is because we all have different learning styles. There are many factors that influence peoples learning styles and processes. Some of these include; attitude - if someone takes an 'I don't care' attitude to your work then they wont do as well. They need to have a positive attitude and a clear mind to enable them to do their work to the full potential. Motivation - if someone is motivated to do something and they really want to get there and how much they want to get there, they will do it, however, if they feel it will not help them in any way then they will be less motivated resulting in putting it off until the last minute. Health - if someone has health problems that keep coming back, i.e. tonsillitis, then they may find it hard to study. These people need to make sure that they are punctual whenever possible and are organised. Responsibilities - people prioritise what they do on how important it is. If someone had children or is a young carer then their responsibilities are to take care of the person, they may have a job or more important tasks to carry out before completing work. Relationships - if someone has a partner then they may put their work off to see them. People may have children and so may not have time to do assignments if there are problems at home. Learning environment - completing work is hard if you don't

Individual’s rights within a health and social care setting include having access to services and medication. Services should not unlawfully discriminate service users due to their race, gender, disability, religion, belief, or sexuality. Another right of an individual within health and social care is being treated with respect and dignity. No matter what the persons circumstances are when using health or social care services they should always be treated fairly and with respect defiantly if they are in a vulnerable state.
