ASSIGNMENT QUESTION - MOD005913 Safeguarding in Practice

Please read the case study in the scenario below and complete the related tasks on the template provided. This should be submitted on Turnitin as a Microsoft word document (not PDF).

Scenario

Sarah Howes, dob 12/10/63, lives alone at 87B Coldhabour Lane in Croydon. It is a first floor privately rented, one bedroom flat. She has lived there since she separated from her partner Reece, 5 years ago. He left her due to her increasing possessiveness, jealousy and aggression. They sold their house and he moved to Manchester for a new start. They have two daughters, Rhia aged 23 who also lives in Croydon and Amy, aged 19, who is in the first year of her degree in music at Manchester University. Whilst both daughters love their mother they find her behaviour erratic and difficult to manage. She will often fly off into a temper, make unreasonable demands on them, for example, phoning them in the middle of the night and demanding that they buy her some shopping. Amy has hardly seen her since going to university. Rhia calls her once a week, but doesn’t like to go around, as the house is so untidy and her mother gets annoyed if she mentions it.

Sarah’s has recently been diagnosed with Huntington’s Disease and is struggling to manage at home. Her gait has become unsteady, she has lost weight and her speech has become slurred and difficult to understand, unless you become attuned to it. She is angry at Reece and feels betrayed by him leaving her a year before she was diagnosed and believes that her daughters should be doing more to support her.

Recently she fell down the stairs and hurt her right wrist. Para-medics were called and decided her wrist was just bruised, but were concerned at how untidy it was. They thought the level of mess on the floor put her at risk of falling again and that the dirty food containers might lead to vermin. One of the paramedics asked if she would like to have a social worker see her to look at help with the shopping until her wrist healed. At first, she was reluctant, but she eventually agreed.

You are the social worker asked to see her. When you visit it takes you some time to persuade her to let you in. The flat smells and papers and empty food wrappers and cans are piled up around the house. She seems quite agitated and paces around unsteadily. She seems very wary of you.

You ask her how she is managing and she says okay, the only problem she identifies is that her sore wrist makes it hard to her to carry shopping. She seems oblivious to the mess around her. When you probe further she says that she feels sad, lonely and isolated. She misses Reece, Rhia and Amy and she is petrified about what the future holds for her and her two daughters.

ANGLIA RUSKIN UNIVERSITY GENERIC ASSESSMENT CRITERIA AND MARKING STANDARDS

LEVEL 5 (was level 2)

MOD005913 Safeguarding in Practice

Level 5 reflects continuing development from Level 4. At this level students are not fully autonomous but are able to take responsibility for their own learning with some direction. Students are expected to locate an increasingly detailed theoretical knowledge of the discipline within a more general intellectual context, and to demonstrate this through forms of expression which go beyond the merely descriptive or imitative. Students are expected to demonstrate analytical competence in terms both of problem identification and resolution, and to develop their skill sets as required.
