Unit 4222-342 Support positive risk taking for individuals (HSC 3066) Outcome 1 Understand the importance of risk taking in everyday life : 1. explain ways in which risk is an integral part of everyday life For many people risk is an accepted part of everyday life. Every day activities such as catching the bus, travelling on holiday, playing football, setting up home and starting a family all carry some element of risk. Risk plays a part in our health, safety, security, well-being, employment, education, daily activities, using resources and equipment and in community participation. But some adults, for example disabled people or older people, are often discouraged from taking risks. Traditionally they are not encouraged to take …show more content…
explain how to apply the principles and methods of a person-centred approach to each of the different stages of the process of risk assessment Working in a personalised way and developing a positive person-centred approach means accepting there are risks that cannot be avoided but which can be prepared for. Reasonable risk is about striking a balance in empowering people with support needs to make choices ensuring that the person has all the information, tailored to their specific needs, in the appropriate format, to make their best decisions "Involvement of service users and relatives in risk assessment": Involving the person concerned and the people that care about them most is one of the most fundamental tenets of any person centred approach. The process uses the 'Relationship Circle' to help the person and their allies identify key people who could form the persons 'circle of support'. This group of people is involved from the outset, in the initial gathering of information, in the framing of what the risk under discussion actually is, in thinking that generates ideas and solutions, in evaluating these solutions, in decision making around the risk, in implementing the actions and in the learning that takes place during these actions. Staff must understand what service users and others want, how they view their own risks and what responsibilities each person has in managing risks effectively. The Person Centred Approach meets this by asking for a clear picture
Whilst promoting independence and choice is key to good working practice maintaining a safe and secure environment is also important. Processes to allow risks to be taken include Planning, risk management; monitoring and recording of outcomes by not allowing risks to be taken consequently can lead to institutionalisation and an increase in dependence.
To the extent my timetable is concerned, I typically go to work at 7.30 AM. It's a 20 minute stroll to the healing center from home. On days when I'm not working I'm finished with rounds and seeing patients by 6.30 PM and back home before 7.
During this unit I learned how to share a project with fellow classmates to allow them to work on it at the same time as me. I also learned the three different ways to allow this, by either sharing it with them, sending them an invite or link through via email, or by copying the link and sending it them. When I used Google Docs in high school we just shared it with one another and could see when we were all on. We also used it when we presented, but I did not know with One Drive you could present online! I think that is one of the coolest tools ever! Not only can you work on these projects and documents together, but you can communicate with each other as well. I was also unaware of how many gigs of storage you get when you sign up for programs
4.4 Propose a strategy to manage risks when balancing individual rights and duty of care in own area of responsibility
Assess the hazards identified in the health and social care setting. And make recommendations in relation to identified hazards to minimise the risks to the service user group. M2 and D1
3. Explain how risk assessment can help address dilemmas between rights and health and safety concerns
We are all familiar with risk. In fact, it is a key component in our everyday material life and we often manage it automatically either when dealing with mundane tasks or major hazards.
For the case study provided with this Assessment Task, you are required to review risk management processes and determine scope and objectives, taking into account stakeholder input and both internal and external environmental factors affecting the organisation. With the information gathered, you are
This task requires you to carry out a risk assessment in a work environment. Include the full risk assessment as part of the information you include in your submission. A Care Plan for a service user based on the information will be provided and you will be required to evaluate the risk and make recommendations on improving the Care Plan.
4.4 Analyse how helping others to understand the balance between risk and rights improve practice.
Risk is a multidimensional concept involving both the probability and magnitude of harms to research participants. All too often, risk is equated with the magnitude of the outcome. Research subjects may be exposed to a broad array of risks and potential benefits as a result of study participation. Risk is not a concept exclusive to biomedical research; social science studies also present risks to participants.
In today’s day and age, with all of the technological advances and advances in both science and education, risk management is a key component in most industries. From the moment a person wakes up each morning, there is an inherent risk involved with, literally, everything that takes place throughout that day. There is a risk of slipping and causing serious injury to one’s self in the shower. There is a risk of eating tainted food for breakfast or cutting one’s self with a sharp knife, causing sickness and injury throughout the rest of the day. The risks continue during the commute to and from work, regardless of how one gets there. Driving is always inherently dangerous because of the thousands of other motorists sharing the same road,
Traditional methods of risk assessment are full of charts and scoring systems, but the person, their objectives, dreams and life seem to get lost somewhere in the pages of tick boxes and statistics.
The word “risk” means the possibility of suffering a harmful event. Risk taking can bring either positive or negative result because anytime we take risks in life, there is a possibility of loss which can cause tension. There are a lot of people who take big risks and appear not to be affected by them. But, many of us feel very uneasy when faced with risk-taking; we may become worried about the risk. Although some people are content in life by just playing it safe and not courting any
