I would be very grateful if you'd be able to help me with a matter regarding Miss Swainston who I believe is well known to you. Her mum came to see me recently she'd raised concerns that she was struggling to access appropriate funding to get Miss Swainston the help she needs and she had been told that this was a result of not having a diagnosis. As far as her mum is aware no diagnosis as to the cause of Miss Swainston's learning disabilities has ever been made. Her mum has been told that because of this she has not received as much funding for care as she might have otherwise. My first question is that as far as you are aware should this be a reason for Miss Swainston not to receive funding, and if not who would be the best people to speak
An “audit failure” is a situation in which a professional auditor fails to detect a material error in the financial statements of the company they are auditing. The audit failure in the situation of Rita Crundwell the failure was exacerbated by the fact that the auditors continually signed off on the misstated statements for years. Crundwell is responsible for many of the deficiencies mentioned, such as the missing funds and the incorrect invoices. However, she is not the sole person responsible for this fraud. The lack of internal control is to blame, and this cannot be placed on a single person. The government should have separated duties and used
‘Anna Walker and David Behan, Inspectors of the Health and Social Care Commission recently launched an audit of all services for England for people with Learning Disabilities.’
In line with The Data Protection Act 1998 to protect the confidentiality of my service user I will identify her with a different name. Carol is a 28 years old female who was born with Spina bifida which has resulted in her suffering from total paralysis of the legs and has also affected her bowels and ability to urinate leaving her doubly incontinent and dependant on catheterisation, Carol uses an electric wheelchair to enable her mobility and requires 2:1 care with daily living activities involving personal care, as well as her physical disability Carol also has learning disabilities due to a diagnosis of Hydrocephalus which is a result of excess fluid build up on the brain which causes pressure and can damage the brain, this is being treated with a shunt. Carol also has Oral-Dyspraxia and although she is able to communicate well staff need to ensure that they communicate at the required pace for her as she sometimes pauses for a while and speaks slowly, she also has limited vision as she wear a prosthetic eye and when communicating with Carol staff must hold things up to her right eye to enable her to see them properly. Although Carol depends on fulltime support she likes to maintain her independence as much as possible and it is important that staff encourage her to do so.
In health care, the nurse holds many responsibilities. The nurse must care for a patient by following the physician’s orders, assessing labs and objective data, in addition to discerning needs for the patient discharge plan. The discharge plan should be initiated soon after the patient is admitted to the hospital. The nurse, along with the interdisciplinary team, will assess the patient needs for returning home, with the nurse providing much of the discharge education. The purpose of this discussion is to choose two learning objectives for the Shadow Health patient Tina Jones. I will describe the teaching methods I would use, discuss how I would evaluate Tina’s learning, and list any possible barriers to learning. I will also relate this to

It is very important that the members of the facility have knowledge of Mrs. Eldridge’s cultural background, belief and values. In order to find out facility member may ask questions as follows: What are your activities of daily living? Who will be the contact person in case of emergency? Who will make the decision if you are unable? Mrs. Eldridge might have a favorite child, who she can trust and likes to have her decision-making person. Do you like to attend a church? What is your favorite food? Do you like to get up in the morning or you like to sleep late? How can we make you comfortable? As you said Kristin that if Mrs. Eldridge would have had the opportunity to make her own decision on where she is going, she would be much happier.
Sally’s school raised concerns as she had presented with a variety of concerning issues such as health and personal care needs not being met and a
People sometimes have tough ordeals. Some may act negatively toward the problem, but the people that act positively toward the problem are able to see hope in places where they wouldn’t expect it to be in. People have been through cruelty, yet they continue to stay positive. People still have the positivity to cling onto their last hope, or even continue to think positively when there is no hope at all. People like Anne Frank, in Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl, continue to stay positive throughout the horrible ordeals that have happened. Some of the Japanese in Dear Miss Breed: True Stories of the Japanese American Incarceration During World War II and a Librarian Who Made a Difference have continued to stay hopeful while in internment

Anyone providing services for children with special needs – health, education or social service departments, as well as voluntary organisations – must act within the legal framework. Legislation can change at any time and all health, education and social care practitioners, also Early Years workers, should be alert to new Acts and Regulations. There have been many changes to legislation in the UK over recent years which have affected this and a gradual increase in entitlements for these pupils.
Not knowing about the relationship between the two sisters and what lead to the deterioration of their relationship, I will say it is possible to see how Mrs. Durham would struggle with the idea of contacting her sister about this information. But in the end I believe Mrs. Durham should contact her sister even if it was a simple letter stating she needs to get tested for the mutation. I also thought about that if Mrs. Durham refused to contact her sister on her own. Mrs. Durham could ask her doctor to contact her sister. I am not sure if the doctor would feel comfortable doing this. However, I believe that the doctor should not contact the sister without Mrs. Durham's approval. Mrs. Durham is the doctor's patient, not the sister. If the sister
Debbie Young a high school principal, who had served as a special education teacher and an assistant principal needed to decide if a student Jonathan would be able to attend her school. Jonathan is a severely disabled tenth-grade student, who has multiple disabilities requiring constant care by a specially trained nurse. Johnathan is profoundly mentally disabled, has spastic quadriplegia (cerebral palsy that affect all four limbs), and has a seizure disorder. With this information, Young refuses the parents request due to the expense and the view that this school is not the most appropriate placement for Jonathan. Hopefully, Young has some grounds as to why Jonathan would not do well in her high school, because his parents have rights under the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act to make sure he has

The medical model sees learning disability as a condition that needs to be cure in order for disabled people to live a ‘normal’ life. The model sees the disabled people as the problem not the society. In contrast, the social model argues disability to be the result of the way society is organised. According to this model, the society disabled people by way of discrimination and barriers to allow equal participation. With regards to Kelly, we can conclude she has experienced the two models of learning disability. She has a condition known as Down’s syndrome, a genetic condition caused by the presence of an extra chromosome 21 in the body cells. This condition is neither a disease nor an ailment (Down’s Syndrome Association UK). Down Syndrome, like Autism, Asperger, Tourette syndrome and Dyslexia are some of the many types of learning disabilities in the UK.
