Summative
Written assignment (100%) Learning Outcomes 1-3

A minimum grade point 4 must be achieved to pass this module.

Formative
Class discussion and debate will provide opportunities for peer and tutor feedback to guide developing knowledge and understanding and analysis of key theoretical concepts. Students will also receive formative feedback from their tutor on assignment plans during individual tutorials.

This module will enhance understanding of the cyclical process of adult care. You are required to demonstrate your understanding of the importance of review and reassessment that acknowledges the potential for both deterioration and rehabilitation and the importance of emotional care. The module will also consider the importance of review as a method of organisational audit and potential challenges to the provision of care.

You will also need to provide rationale for care decisions that safeguard choice, aspirations, dignity and autonomy and take into account social, cultural, spiritual, legal, political and economic influences in the context of personalisation, integrated services and the transformation agenda. You will also need to demonstrate your understanding of the crucial differences between principles of `planning and reviewing care' and `enabling support' and how you apply this in practice.
