UNIT 2 PROMOTE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

I have the relevant experience, knowledge and experience for being a manager and therefore I need to investigate and develop further knowledge in regards to social care. I also need to balance this with my own develop and knowledge in regards to working for a new company and finding out and learning new policies, procedures and requirements.

I am responsible for ensuring that my mandatory training is up to date, and that I follow all codes, legislation, and recommendations when performing my duties. I will ensure that my job description is current, and am aware of my responsibilities within my role. It is important that I attend refresher courses to update my practical skills, and attend new training courses to improve my working knowledge and skills.

The importance of continually providing knowledge and practice is to keep up with the constant changes that are happening all the time. Globalisation and technology have made changes in health and social care at a rapid rate. There has been a significant change in the way that care is being experienced and there are higher expectations in the quality of care. A more personal approach is required and accessibility to training resources ensures that we can all be the best in our job roles and in line with legal requirements. There are opportunities available now, thanks to technology advancements, to share responsibilities across the board, we have better access to other partnerships,

The aim of the 10 ESCs is to set out the shared capabilities that all staff working in health should achieve as best practice; they should also be relevant to staff working in social services. In addition, it is intended that they will enable people using health services to develop increased awareness of what to expect from staff and services. (Armstrong D, et al, 2012:7):

My own work is influenced by national factors such and codes of practice, national occupational standards and legislation and government initiatives so that we the best quality of care and support to our clients. It is very important to understand and acknowledge all policies and rules so that you can do your job correctly and professionally. If we didn’t following these codes of practice then the level of care would be poor and people wouldn’t understand or know what good quality of care is.

At the start of the health and social care course I knew that I wanted a career working within the health or social care sector. From working with local authorities (such as schools, elderly care home) I have learned how to communicate effectively with different service users. Professionally I have learned the importance of guidelines within a health and social care sector. I know and understand the relevant that I am able to promote later within my career with working with service users.

In my role it is important to continually improve my knowledge and practices. In health and social care ways of working and legislation as well as good practice are constantly changing. Therefore it is important to keep up to date with training and also any changes in legislation. This will enable me to deliver the best service possible to the tenants I support and also enables me to keep staff upto date with any changes in the way that we work. It also forms part of The codes of practice for social care workers to keep skills and knowledge up to date.

Planning and Organizing: Claudia continues to meet with her employees that are not meeting the performance goals, on a bi-weekly basis to review and discuss their previous week work performance. She formulates a detailed calendar of all assigned tasks for her unit, including any contingencies for necessary changes.

During my time there I learnt a variety of social care subjects, the most relevant being human development and behaviour and social influences. Human development and behaviour, has strengthened my analytical skills by helping me to develop my own conclusions and arguments based upon studies and theories I have learnt. It has also improved my ability to break down situations and look at them piece by piece. When studying social influences I developed my understanding of the importance to remain objective in my work. It has also heightened my knowledge of different cultures and the pressures people face in

It is important for me to continually improve my knowledge and follow best practice. I need to ensure that I am aware of and follow current RQIA Minimum Standards, Supporting People QAF and NISCC standards. By doing this I am following current legislation and guidelines for continued good practice in my work setting. This then in turn provides the best possible outcomes for my service users.

There are codes of practice and ethics for each profession such as the NMC codes for Nurses and midwives and the CQC for professionals working within the health and social care setting. There are also work place policies, practice and protocols applied which have come from legislations made by the government. This will allow each professional to work together to deal with the needs of the family. For example, the health visitor will be responsible for contacting the social services. The social worker will be able to get in contact with the council in order for Vicky’s home to be up to the required living standards, and if this was not possible then the social worker will have the power to prompt the council to move the family to a safer environment which will also ned to be adapted to the needs of Susan.

As important as patient reviews and criticism are, another factor that I will use in order to evaluate how my staff is performing will be by providing peer reviews multiple times a year. This ensures that there is significant peer accountability; driving my staff to hold each other responsible for their duties and encourage them to provide their best possible effort to the patients of my future practice. A multidisciplinary team that is concerned with not only each individual’s duty, but also the responsibilities of others in the group, will help lower negative outcomes, both within the delivery room and within my practice (Escape Fire). As The Commonwealth Fund suggests, in order to better deliver effective healthcare, instituting policies

AECOM recruits graduates who have specialized in Civil Engineering. In general, civil engineers translate detailed designs into structures such as bridges, roadways and buildings. In order to qualify for employment at AECOM, an aspiring engineer must be proficient in computer aided design (CAD) using relevant software. In addition, they must be capable of interpreting blueprints and technical specifications. Generally, potential candidates are expected to be knowledgeable in all aspects that touch on construction. Furthermore, must demonstrate their ability to troubleshoot technical challenges that may arise at any given phase of the project. The role of civil engineers is to ensure that a project conforms to its blueprints (Fasano 1).

The Professional Education Unit (PEU) at Miles College prepares candidates, at the initial level, in ten Alabama State Department of Education approved program of study areas. The unit programs of study are: Biology Education, Chemistry/Chemistry Education, Early Childhood Education, Elementary Education, English Language Arts Education, General Science Education, History/Social Science Education, Mathematics/Mathematics Education, Music/Music Education (Choral), and Music/Music Education (Instrumental). The assessment data included in the unit’s self-study states that candidates preparing to work in schools, know and demonstrate content knowledge, pedagogical skills and professional dispositions needed to be facilitators of learning for all students in P-12 schools (IR, p. 3).
