Instructions:

Your assessor will put you into a small group (of approximately 3 people). You will need to read the case study below and discuss the following:

Strategies you would implement to help Tully achieve her goal.

Strength-based activities to assist in promoting independence.

The role of the support worker in providing support and information to help Tully make informed decisions.

The responsibilities of each member of the support team.

Additional support or services required.

Monitoring and review strategies.

Make sure you take your own notes during this discussion. Online students will participate in an online class discussion and complete the case study.

After you have determined and discussed the above points, present your findings to the rest of the class. After everyone in the class has presented, compare your findings with the findings of the other groups and write down any differences. Online students will discuss in an online class.

Now it is time to write your report. This should be done by yourself—refer to your notes from your group discussion and the notes you took about the other groups’ presentations and pick out those that you feel best suit Tully’s scenario.

Note: You will not be assessed on the classroom discussion; however, you must participate in order to complete your discussion report. Your assessor will be observing each group to ensure everyone participates equally.

Case Study: Tully

Tully is a 75-year-old female who has an intellectual disability. She enjoys art, reading, and music. She has two children and she like to communicate with them regularly.

She is not overly social and tends to spend time alone privately completing recreational activities. She has been a smoker for 40 years and usually smokes up to 8–10 cigarettes a day. She is able to go for walks for short periods at a time only.

Tully is sensitive to loud noises in the environment, which causes her to become quite anxious and stressed. Being anxious or stressed causes Tully to smoke more frequently through the day.

Tully’s father passed away from lung cancer due to smoking when she was younger, so one of her goals is to cut back on smoking. She is hoping to smoke only 2 cigarettes per day.
