Standard 9.04 a defines raw test data and scaled scores as raw information disclosed by clients during examination. Test data are client’s response to test and scaled scores and these information’s have not been released or subjected to analyzing by a third party. The scaled score are the psychologist note during the testing and does not include psychotherapy notes. The revised rules for test data was implemented in 2003 and new rules were added to help client have autonomy over their raw data.
Task 3 Preparation I will explain on how my chosen service is designed to meet the health needs, developmental needs and social care needs for my chosen client group. How will Carters Green Medical Centre meet the needs of my client group (children) with their health and growing up as well as socialising skills? I will briefly explain the role of informal carers supporting my chosen client Evaluate the impact this could have on that child’s life. So how would the role of the extended family support my client group (children). I will use a secondary research of data from textbooks to research about informal carers.
abuse: When the service user lives with the carer, it may increase the chances for abuse to occur as this situation may cause stress and resentment if the carer feels he/she cannot cope. Not properly trained staff who do not receive any supervision or support at work, as well as stressed staff who are going through personal problems, or who do not like working in the care sector, may increase the risk of an individual being abused. In addition, patients who are not mobile, are confused, suffer from dementia or are aggressive or challenging, may also present an increase for the risk of an individual being abused, since the carer

Care Standards Act 2000 The Care Standards was established in 2000, its’ aim is to ensure that the standards of care within all institutions were not inadequate as the rules and regulations have to be adhered to.

When it comes to the no-duty principle, one must take into account the role of medical ethics, which is understood more by a healthcare professional than that of the law. For example, a licensed physician is not obligated to aid a stranger in medical distress, but many professional believe they have a moral obligation in situation such as this. Under the no-duty principle, unless circumstance, dictate other wise, many physicians feel the obligation to provide some level of quality service, even if they cannot pay for it. Although, no right to health or health care exists in the U.S., certain circumstances "give rise to healthcare rights," and certain groups are entitled to healthcare, or receive generous from
Healthcare rationing is limiting healthcare to only patients who can pay. Rationing healthcare may seem to be the right thing to do because of its cost effectiveness. Saving valuable resources and cost is another benefit of healthcare rationing. The United States require more healthcare resources or way to receive healthcare for people who are in need because of the population ratio and healthcare availability.
The negatives effects – would be that the carer could be stressed about looking after the infant as they might be too small for them to hold or carry. There are many negative effects as looking after infants can be quite hard and upsetting at times. Also, an effect linked to this would be stress of responsibility the informal carer might think that they might drop the baby and don’t want to risk that happening so they just play with her/him on a little play mat but, on a safe place like a seat or bed with a border. Another negative effect would be that maybe they couldn’t supply for the infant like buying nappies or powered milk etc. In addition, being bored of looking after the baby as they are too little and the carer can’t play with them
The author also highlighted that addressing issues concerning unequal availability to healthcare is in imperative in order to reducing health disparities (McHenry, 2012). I think as APNs one thing we can do is make patient aware of what their insurance will cover and what types of services they are eligible for. For many patient, suggested interventions and treatments may be disregarded due to a lack of financial means. In addition to this many people have simply decided not to take advantage of health insurance coverage that is available to
To me the conflict perspective fits perfectly regarding the situation of health issues such as HIV/AIDS and obesity being very high among minorities and the poor in America. The conflict perspective is described as which groups have power, which social groups benefit, and how we are always going through change driven by class conflict. The minorities and poor aren’t benefiting from their social class, they are powerless, and they are a big part of class conflict. Not enough people are trying to help and or educate the minorities and poor. I know people say you can’t help who doesn’t want to be helped and people assume they don’t want to be helped because if they did they wouldn’t have the highest rates with particular health issues such as
It may surprise you that, according to the World Health Organization (WHO) and World Bank, at least 400 million people lack access to essential health services. They said, at least 6 percent of people in 37 low and middle income countries are living in poverty because they must spend the money for health. Health care services is the most importance thing that we need because it is not only for improve the health but also through individual behaviour and lifestyle choices such as quitting smoking, eating the nutritious food and living a healthy lifestyles.
These include among others, cost, government policies, ignorance, poor infrastructure and psychological factors. Cost involves high cost of healthcare both on the individual side and the health care providers’ side. Government policies should be set up in a way that looks after the health of its citizens. The ignorance of the homeless population when it comes to their own health and their psychological challenges also acts as a hindrance to accessing healthcare. If these hurdles are adequately addressed, the homeless population will be able to access quality healthcare just like the other populations.
These disparities that exist in all the factors have to be eliminated with suitable control measures. Regulations on health care services and their access has to be made more
In this case, my client is three years old and is unable to physically attend the healthcare services alone, so she needs help to be taken to her local GP for check-ups. But sometimes her family is unable to take her to the services due to no transportation being available as well as the location being further away from home. This is a barrier for Ruth as it prevents her from receiving sufficient care which could affect Ruth’s wellbeing. The GP minimises this barrier by having a system that ensures Ruth attends her check-ups and appointments.
This means to say that everyone should have access to good standard health. However this is not the case in public health systems. Their constraints limit the capacity to provide universal health. For instance with HIV, which is the biggest epidemic in South Africa, access to antiretroviral treatment for people who are marginalized, poor and living with HIV becomes difficult. Moreover if these individuals get access to the treatment, because they are poor, they might not have access to a balanced diet which needs to be taken with the pills and this ultimately worsens their health (Sen & Östlin, 2008).
And community services is much more, it is about taking small steps to bridge the gaps in society and create a caring community that takes care of one
