CHCCCS023 -INDICATORS OF ANXIETY, PROLONGED SADNESS, AND LACK OF ENGAGEMENT: UNDERSTANDING EMOTIONAL SIGNS AND IMPACTS
Social differences
Cultural differences
Spiritual differences.
Social differences: Social distinctions, on the other hand, are defined as the differences between people with regard to their social roles, for instance, race, class, age, sex and power relations of people. Example: One client may be from a high class, and therefore has insurance and financial might to get good health care and education, while the other may be a poor client, whereby he cannot afford good health care or education (Learner Guide, 2023).
Cultural differences: Cultural differences therefore refer to the differences that people display depending on the culture in which they were brought up and which they practise; they include country, religion, nationality, ethnicity, family and past experiences. Example: An example would be that one client may be practising the celebration of Christmas so they are Christian and English-speaking while the other client may be observing the Islamic practice of Ramadan so he is Muslim and Arabic speaking (Learner Guide, 2023).
Spiritual differences: Religious and spiritual differences are therefore the differences in the way people think and conduct themselves, especially concerning their spirituality and religion. Religion is an organised set of beliefs and practices while spirituality can entail involvement in such activities as meditation and yoga (Learner Guide, 2023).
Example: While one client is a Christian who attends church meetings the other is a Buddhist who meditates daily. Spiritual Differences are crucial to understand and acknowledge these spiritual practices to be able to support and meet patients’ needs.
In asserting personal differences in care and support, it is important that each person is considered on or on the basis of his or her social, cultural or spiritual identity. Listening to the clients and acknowledging everything they say, focusing on their backgrounds. Personalised care according to the client's values and choices has to be offered. Facilitate clients' choices and personal expression by agreeing with their preferences on things like clothes, functions, or living environment (Learner Guide, 2023).
One must take a turn to ask questions to the other so as to get to know him/her, but without revealing any information about oneself. One of the partners in the relationship learns about the different ethnicity, religion and cultural imprint of the other partner (Learner Guide, 2023).
Recording all these disparities contributes to the development of tolerance, which is crucial to the recognition and appreciation of the variation in people’s ideas and ways of life in a professional context that is viable in rendering personalised and sophisticated assistance.
I believe that the values and attitudes concerning the job should be based on empathy, refraining from prejudice, and respect for individuals accompanied by a passion for the in-depth study of each client's requirements.
When it comes to fulfilling clients' needs I would appreciate physiological, safety, social, esteem, and self-actualization needs in line with Maslow's classification of those needs (Woolfolk & Margetts, 2012).
Addressing patients' needs that pertain to their spirit, culture and sexuality shouldn't be ignored because they are important. I recognize the relevance of thinking about each client's developmental stage while providing support activities.
To prevent limiting the liberty of the individuals, make use of active listening and apply empathy, to make sure you are aware of their needs and views. Adopt the patient's cultural, spiritual, and personal beliefs and honour them while offering care relevant to those beliefs. Individualise your communication and support techniques to be aligned with the client's needs and promote their independence (Learner Guide, 2023). One should practise self-reflecting about biases in order to identify them and to participate in cultural competence training continuously.
● About dress, advise clients to wear their preferred or cultural clothing.
● The clients shall be assisted in selecting their preferred foods and recipes for the meals.
● Assist the individual in participating in cultural or religious events.
● Assist clients accurately in choosing the right styles that they want in their abode.
● Organise social activities which are close to the hobbies of the clients such as reading groups or dancing lessons.
● Ensure the clients get what they want as far as personal care items are concerned.
● Support and promote clients’ sexual rights.
● Closely listen to as well as acknowledge personal experiences that the clients have to share.
1. Using information gathered from Activities 1A and 1B outline a person’s individual needs, their stage of life and development and their strengths. Give three considerations when engaging in support activities. (This can be done along with the role play activity 1A (3).
Self-interest means those of physical, psychological, social, esteem, and self-actualization types of a person. For example, an elderly client in the vulnerable elder stage may require help with things such as “assistance with daily tasks" because of cognitive or health conditions. Some of the needs may include; safety, social interaction as a way of covering loneliness, and achievement as a way of boosting their morale (Learner Guide, 2023).
● Safety: Make sure that there are no risks to the hygiene of the client or to their general health in the context of the environment.
● Respect for Identity: Respect the individua's preferences, and cultural or religious beliefs (Learner Guide, 2023).
● Empowerment: Ensure the child/children are allowed to be independent and express his/her/their ideas and opinions so that he/she/they develop/have a positive self-esteem.
1. Give 2 examples of the different ways you can accommodate your consumers’ expressions of their identity.
● Support people to engage in cultural festivities and spiritual activities without discriminating against them.
● Offer the client situations in which he or she might go out and do the things that he or she enjoys, like reading or dancing.
2. What does expression of sexuality include and what are the effects of suppression?
The elements of sexual expression entitle individuals to the use of assistive/protective devices, affection, need to express private and secretive behaviour, physical appearance, and touch. Their suppression may result in depression, frustration, anger and or violence, and social isolation which are all detrimental to the overall mental health of the client (Learner Guide, 2023).
3. What would be your response to the following scenario: An older gentleman called Graeme whom you have been supporting is homosexual and is in a relationship with a man who visits him frequently. He hasn’t told his family or friends that he is homosexual but he tells you that he feels like now is the right time to tell his friends and family. What would you do as part of your role in caring for Graeme.

1. What is consumer directed Care (CDC)?
Consumer Directed Care or CDC, is a model of service delivery that enhances consumers' choices and choices for the procedures and supports they receive. CDC enables the individual to make choices as to the kind and extent of services to be utilised and providers, goals to work toward and to participate in the planning of one's care (Learner Guide, 2023).
From its strategic objectives of the client focus and involving people in decision-making processes, the CDC endeavours to respect the client's wishes and make the service more personalised and therefore more independent and satisfying.

1. Why is it important for your consumers to maintain a safe and healthy environment?
Since health is a significant aspect of the consumer, protection of health within the community influences the general well-being of people. Hygiene and safety ensure that there are reduced cases of accidents, infections, and sickness easily controlling the occurrence of the same.
In turn, these contribute to improved psychological well-being and a decrease in stress levels since it creates a sense of security. Furthermore, the development of an organised environment permits a person to accomplish routine operations fully and without hesitance, giving a boost to one's perceived quality of life (Personal Futures Network, 2024).

To record variations in a consumer’s physical condition or well-being and how any changes correspond with the organisation’s policies and procedures, in a timely manner document the observations made in relation to their health (Lou & Tse, 2020).
Immediately report the harassment to your supervisor or the person officially assigned to receive the reports through any of the following communication inventions; email or telephone.
1. Identify a physical health situation of a client that is beyond the scope of your own role and answer the following questions
1. Physical health situation
a) Why is it beyond the scope of your own role?
In a physical health situation for instance diagnosing a complex disease is not within my capacity because to do so, one needs to have a medical background and training that I do not possess. High levels of suspicion accompany such cases and their proper management requires professionalism from the side of the healthcare practitioners for accurate diagnosis and management (Sah, 2022).
b) How should you deal with it?
In cases of a physical health issue outside of my functional capacity, I should inform a healthcare provider, doctor, or specialist at the moment. Functional capacity helps to ensure adequate medical care and treatment to the client. The role of the organisation entails ensuring that the actual conditions of the problem are explained effectively and the appropriate assistance is made available (Sah, 2022).
c) Whom should you report to? Why should you report to them?
If there is a physical health situation that is not contained within my area of work, then I must inform a health care provider, for instance, a physician or a specialist, or, depending on the specifics of the work environment, a supervisor or manager (Zivin et al., 2022).
Such reporting is necessary to be made to a healthcare professional since they are in the right position to offer the correct medical response and treatment. In cases where affording medical assistance cannot be done, reporting to one's immediate supervisor or manager helps bring the situation within the organisational framework besides offering the client the necessary attention as soon as possible.

5. How can community values and attitudes, including myths and stereotypes, impact upon an individual’s wellbeing?
General population perception can affect self-esteem and the availability of coping resources within communities (Poudel et al., 2020). The value results in stigma which is evident in the myths and stereotypes that are associated with mental health and thus people cannot seek treatment.
6. What are the indicators of following emotions?
a. Anxiety
Anxiety disorder is defined as a state of worrying excessively, being tense and perceiving certain physical symptoms such as having a rush of heart beating and sweating (Sica et al., 2021). Personals can have trouble with concentration, muscle tension, and avoiding situations which cause anxiety, affecting daily tasks.
b. Prolonged sadness
Chronic dysphoria is such chronic or prolonged sadness that lasts for weeks even months. Some of these are general effects like changes in appetite, wake and sleep pattern, and energy level therefore impacting the performance of normal activities and overall health (Mason et al., 2021).
c. Lack of engagement
Lack of engagement symptoms can be indicative of low levels of engagement or, in other words, the individual's unwillingness to engage in activities and interactions, and diminished interest and drive (Cook & Zill, 2023). Inability to perform is also seen in people who display low motivation in their work, leave out their responsibilities, and get poor results in their jobs or even personal ability.
7. Create a definition of each of the following and summarise how they are relevant to your current or prospective job role:
Dignity of Risk stands for the notion that people should be allowed to make their own decisions and face the consequences of those decisions and, therefore, should be allowed to risk their lives, etc (Banerjee et al., 2021). As an example, in a job category that deals with clients or clients' care, respecting the clients' dignity of risk involves helping the clients make their own decisions regarding their lives.
Duty of care is the legal and moral requirements which make a person socially responsible for the welfare of colleagues or clients, as the case may be. Duty of care encompasses action that should be taken to avoid harm in contexts like caregiving or supervision, ensuring suitable measures of care and promoting the well-being of any person under one's care (Banerjee et al., 2021).
International Human Rights represent the standards of freedom and entitlements which are granted to all individuals without prejudice to race, colour, political opinions, national origin, religion, gender, or any other consideration. Some of them include; the right to life, freedom of speech and expression, right to privacy, and equality rights (Personal Futures Network, 2024). In caregiving or supportive professions, making the state all rights of each individual helps ensure that people will be treated fairly.
Discrimination includes acts of unfair treatment that are exercised on people due to attributes, which include race, gender, age, disability or other related factors (Mason & Minerva, 2020).
Discrimination results in disparity and socio-economic injustice and impacts a person's health and available services. Thus, fighting discrimination is vital in every context regardless of the specific position in a company.
Reporting laws compel an individual who holds a professional position, including educators, doctors and police officers among others to report any case that they suspect to be a child or vulnerable adult abuse or neglect to the authorities (Geiderman & Marco, 2020).
Such legal responsibility is possible to prevent adverse effects that may arise when the matter in question is not looked into as required by the law.
Privacy, confidentiality, and disclosure cover the restriction of information and only allow a few people to have access to such information. Privacy regulates how an individual's data is handled with a focus on the fact that the data should not be disclosed without the owner's permission (Gstrein & Beaulieu, 2022).
Security entails the protection of data from onlookers and other people who ought not to come across such information. Disclosure is the process of releasing information in the right manner and is mostly done when compelled by the law or with permission.
Organisational boundaries apply to the tasks that need to be accomplished as well as the demarcations of a particular job. Accountabilities include activities that are required and expected of an individual given his or her position within an organisation, accompanied by performances as established by the organisation's protocols (Abhayawansa et al., 2021).
Constraints pertain to understanding and following certain lines of procedure, for instance, one cannot perform tasks outside his/her area of jurisdiction.
1. Research and explain on various service delivery models and standards.
a) The Medical Model
The Medical Model of care concentrates on the physical nature of the disease or condition for which an individual is receiving services, and centres on assessment and cure (Hagger & Orbell, 2021).
b) The Social Model
The Social Model of disability lies in the understanding that the state of human health enormously depends on his/her social, economic, and environmental circumstances (Lawson & Beckett, 2020).
c) The Person-Centred Model
The Person-Centred Model makes the individual the centre of attention and involves developing a plan of care depending on the individual’s needs, wishes, and beliefs (Ahmed et al., 2022).
d) The Integrated Care Model
An integrated model of care delivery concentrates on the appropriate care delivery from various sectors (McGorry et al., 2022). As a result, patient satisfaction and health are sought to be enhanced by enhancing the coordination and organisation of a multiplicity of often fragmented services ranging from primary care to specialists and social services.
a) Quality Standards
Quality standards can define what level of quality should be provided in the services, for example, according to some accreditation or other authorities.
b) Ethical Standards
Ethical requirements regulate the behaviour of service deliverers so that services will be provided in a way that respects recipients' humanity (Ripoll, 2019).
c) Accessibility Standards
These standards guarantee that the services extend to the disabled and those groups of people with certain barriers.
2. Research and explain various funding models.
a) Fee-for-Service (FFS)
Fee-for-Service model pays providers for the kind of services provided to the patients by the health facilities (Li et al., 2022).
b) Capitation
Capitation entails payment per patient on a per diem, weekly, monthly or annual basis without relation to the volume or type of services lasting. Capitation is usually applied in civilizations like managed care environments, for instance, "Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs)” (Obikeze & Onwujekwe, 2020).
c) Grants
A grant is a monetary aid given in the form of finances by the government, any foundation that could be “National Institutes of Health" research grants, community development grants and the like (Lauer & Roychowdhury, 2021).
d) Public Funding
Public funding can include such forms as subsidies, block grants, and earmarked funds intending to finance social services such as education, health, or social infrastructural facilities.
e) Venture Capital
Venture Capital entails funding new organisations or any organisation which is in its early stages of development (Lerner & Nanda, 2020). Money is contributed in exchange for an ownership interest in businesses with the objective of earning good profits.
