Planning Care in Practice – Module 2

Unit 10- Planning Care in Practice- Quality healthcare depends on clear and structured planning for all episodes of care that will ensure effective interactions, interventions and treatment. The healthcare professional will promote a person-centred approach by working in partnership with individuals and other professionals to assess positive outcomes from an episode of care. This unit will enable students to become familiar with care planning processes in their practice, however short or long the interaction and whatever type of care may be required.

Unit 13- End of Life Care Planning and Support- Providing care for an individual at the end of their life is a sensitive and emotional period of care. Healthcare practitioners and support staff may be involved in supporting families in end-of-life care, at time of death and through bereavement. In this unit, students will review local and national end-of-life guidelines as well as legislative processes in reporting death. Students will demonstrate skills in planning end-of-life care and providing support.
