CHCPRT001 - Assessment 2 1. Read the case study, then answer the questions that follow. Case study Ronald, an educator, has recently noticed some bruising and burns on Caleb. Ronald suspects that Caleb is being abused by his mother, so he decides to document his observations. Child’s name: Caleb Date: 17.06.14 Recorded by: Ronald McDougall Caleb fell over in the mud today and he needed to change his clothing. I helped him to do this providing pants and a clean shirt. When Caleb removed the dirty clothing I could see that he had a bruise in the shape of a hand on his lower back. Right above this bruise was a small blister that looked like a burn. I asked Caleb what had happened and he said it was an accident, then he turned away and wouldn’t talk any more. Ronald makes the following recording the next day. Child’s name: Caleb Date: 18.06.14 Recorded by: Ronald McDougall This morning I heard Caleb’s mum telling another parent that she goes out to the pub most nights and that she is bored being home alone with Caleb. Today she also yelled at Caleb as he didn’t remember whether they had turned the lights off before they came this morning. Questions a) What information should Ronald include that is specific to the circumstances? b) Has Ronald included all the information needed to give a holistic picture of the situation?

When you get closer to Maxwell, you see that his clothes are dirty and smell of cigarettes and alcohol. It is well before morning tea time when Maxwell asks if he can have a snack. You ask him what he had for breakfast this morning, and he says, ‘Nothing’. When you have made him a snack, you sit down with him and ask him, ‘Maxwell, what did you do on the weekend?’ He lowers his eyes and says, ‘Nothing’.
