Assessment Task 3: Service Design

This task is broken into two components, Part A and B.

Both Part A and B need to be written up separately which basically mean I need two separate paper for PART A and B with separate reference list.

Part A (worth 30% of the available marks) (960 words excluding in text reference in the content)

 

The first task requires you to critically appraise the extent to which existing services support the older person with BPSD (Behavioural and Psychological Symptoms of Dementia).

This section requires you to compare and contrast two services, from different countries, or cultural groups within Australia, which support the person with BPSD. Refer to the PART A marking criteria for further instructions of what needs to be attended while writing this section.

 

Part B (30% of the available marks) (960 words excluding in text reference in the content)

 

For this task you will have the opportunity to test your ideas for designing a service that enhances the lives of older people living with BPSD. Innovation must be evidence-based, that is, supported by scholarly literature. Again refer to the PART B marking criteria for further details.

 

Assessment Criteria

 

Part A

• Critically relate your knowledge of the pathophysiology of dementia and BPSD to the service model/s you discuss.
• Demonstrate the qualities of a reflective practitioner by critically reflecting on your own, and observed practice in the care of an older adult living with BPSD and the extent to which you, and your colleagues, or the service being analysed, have supported that person’s well-being.
• Critically analyse the extent to which existing services support the older person with BPSD. In your analysis you will identify two different services, the philosophies and practice used to support the older person with BPSD.
• Demonstrate your understanding of service-design models by critiquing these services. Your critical evaluation will clearly identify the extent to which these existing designs meet the identified need/s from your analysis.

Part B

• Critically relate your knowledge of the pathophysiology of dementia and BPSD to the justification for the service model you design.
• Identifies the philosophy and practice concept/s you have adopted in your service-design. Presenting compelling evidence for adopting this philosophy and practice in your design with particular regard as to how it will support the older person with BPSD.
• Presents an argument supporting the merits of your ideas in designing a service that enhances the lives of older people living with BPSD. Innovation must be evidence-based, that is, supported by scholarly literature.
• Writes clearly in an appropriate academic style and structure.
