Task details and instructions:
|
This module consists of two assessed tasks:
Task 1: A 1500-word critical reflection (40% of the overall module mark):
- LO3: Using real life case studies, appraise how your own behaviour, values, beliefs, professional practice, and approach to decision making, enables the development of an integrated, person-centred approach
- LO4: Evaluate how your professional knowledge and skills can complement those of other professions to provide person-centred, integrated care.
Interprofessional Capability Framework (ICF)
Use the Interprofessional Capability Framework (ICF) to assess and identify your current level of capability as an effective collaborative practitioner.
Choose at least one capability from each domain and provide evidence to demonstrate how you have met this capability.
Identify and discuss your strengths and areas for development and critically reflect upon your learning using real life case studies and examples from your practice to critically reflect upon and evaluate your values, beliefs, knowledge, practice, and decision-making processes.
Consider how you will apply this knowledge within an integrated environment when working with people with complex health and social care needs and discuss your capacity to support the provision of person centred, integrated care.
NB: You will be expected to use evidence, theory, and research to support your work and to adopt a clearly identified reflective model such as Gibbs.
Task 2: An online poster (60%of the overall module mark)
Submission to Blackboard
- LO1: Discuss how key health and social factors combine to result in complex health and care needs
- LO2: Compare and contrast your professional knowledge, skills and evaluation of assessment and treatment planning for people with complex health and care needs, to those of other professions
To successfully complete this assessment task, you will be required to work collaboratively in your pre-assigned seminar groups.
You will be required to produce evidence of your collaboration through participation in online forums such as PebblePad, Padlet, Google Communities, Zoom etc.
Using your given case study as a collaborative team you will identify and discuss how key health and social factors have combined to result in complex health and care needs. You should compare and contrast your professional skills, knowledge and perspectives and discuss how you would work together collaboratively in order to develop a coordinated and integrated, person-centred plan for the person in your case study.
This collaborative team work will form the basis of your individual poster. You will be asked to prepare a poster based on your given case study.
Your poster should incorporate two key elements.
Element One
In the first element you should focus on the key health and social factors as identified through your team work
Element Two
The second element should demonstrate how you would work collaboratively to develop a coordinated and integrated person-centred plan.
To prepare your poster you can use PowerPoint or an online poster graphic design platform such as Canva or Piktochart.
NB: You should use a maximum of two slides/pages

Academic Misconduct
Academic misconduct is any action, attempted action or omission that may result in you gaining an unfair advantage over other students in an assessment, where there is evidence to demonstrate that your actions or behaviour arose from an intention to deceive the marker. It is a breach of the Code of Academic Conduct and as such will be investigated under the Academic Conduct Regulation. It is a serious matter and has the potential to result in a number of sanctions which could impact on your ability to progress academically. Further information on misconduct can be found by typing “Academic Misconduct” into the search tab in Blackboard.
Breaches of confidentiality and unethical practices
The University takes this very seriously and failure to follow confidentiality, anonymity, or follow research ethics protocols can result in a student having to go before an Academic Conduct Panel. You must not disclose the name of any patients/ service users, Trusts or other organisations, personnel or disclose any information that would mean an organisation, service or person can be identified.
Assessment Information
If you have any questions about assessment rules, you can be found by typing “Assessment Regulations” into the search tab in Blackboard.
Extensions and exceptional circumstances (RRAA)
If personal exceptional circumstances may have affected your ability to complete this assessment, you can apply for a 5 working day extension. Further information on how to do this can be found by tying “Extension” into the search tab in Blackboard.

The minimum pass criteria to pass this module is 40% for each task
In Module retrieval (IMR) is available if you do not achieve 40%. You will be given an opportunity to use IMR with the benefit of your feedback within 10 days of the marks being released. Your mark will be capped at 40%
If you do not achieve the minimum pass criteria for the module of 40% either in your first attempt or in your IMR attempt, you are entitled to a referral at the end of the module. You will be given a submission date for resubmission, after the assessment board has ratified the mark. This will be a new assessment task
The maximum overall mark you can be awarded in a referred assessment task that you pass is 40%.
Failure to achieve 40% on any of these attempts will mean you have failed this module and will need to retake this the following year. Please check with your tutor in cases this mark is eligible for ‘compensated pass’ status.
