This Candidate Assessment Guide includes information and instructions which ensure assessment is conducted in a manner that is fair, flexible, valid and reliable and evidence collected meets the rules of evidence which includes authenticity, validity, sufficiency and currency. This Candidate Assessment Guide includes two (2) parts: · General instructions to you · Assessment tasks Part A: General instructions to the candidate Purpose of assessment The assessments for this unit have been designed to ensure you are able to competently demonstrate your knowledge and skills for each of the elements, performance criteria, performance evidence, knowledge evidence, foundation skills and assessment conditions of the unit. Application of the unit Once competency has been achieved for this unit, you will be able to competently demonstrate skills and knowledge required to obtain and interpret information about client health status and to check a client’s physical health. It requires a detailed knowledge of anatomy and physiology. This includes the ability to: 1. Obtain information about physical health status 2. Check physical health status 3. Identify variations from normal physical health status This unit applies to individuals working directly with clients and who assist in the provision of health care services. Some disciplines may be subject to state/territory regulatory determination regarding delegation and supervision. Summary of assessment tasks and outline of evidence to be gathered The following three (3) assessment activities will be used to determine competency for this unit of competency. Assessment activity Assessment method and location Assessment due date Description Outline of evidence to be gathered Competency based assessments Knowledge Questions This is a written assessment that needs to be completed by candidates as part of their self-paced learning. You are required to respond in your own words to 37 questions requiring a written response in relation to a range of knowledge questions related to, but not limited to: · Structure and functions of human body systems · Diseases and conditions affecting various body systems · Cells, tissues and organs · Human life processes · Variations from normal functioning · Role responsibilities and limitations for different members of the care team in relation to checking client health status. · Answers to all knowledge questions. · You are not required to submit an Assessment Tool cover sheet for the Knowledge Questions as you will log on to Moodle to complete this assessment. Simulation Based Assessment This assessment task/s involves the demonstration of various skills in the simulated nursing environment at the EQUALS You are required to demonstrate appropriate skills in a simulated nursing environment for various simulated clinical scenarios outlined in the assessment tool including: · Demonstration of various skills as per the tasks outlined in the Simulation Based Assessment Tool. · The observation checklist provided for the ( Document: HLTAAP002 Candidate Assessment Guide Date created: 19 January 2019 Version: 2.0 Date implemented: 19 January 2019 Next review: 19 January 2022 Responsibility: Academic Manager (VET) ) ( Page 5 of 60 ) Assessment activity Assessment method and location Assessment due date Description Outline of evidence to be gathered campus. · Obtaining anatomical and physiological information relating to the physical health status of a person · Interpreting and using this information. task will be completed by the assessor in the Candidate Assessment Tool. · Assessment cover sheet for the assessment task with all areas duly completed by you and the assessor. Professional Practice Assessment This assessment task/s involves demonstration of various skills in the professional experience placement venue. You will participate in Professional Placement as part of the Diploma of Nursing. You will be required to complete an Industry Placement Logbook throughout your placement. You will be observed in the workplace carrying out specific skills as outlined in the logbook including obtaining, interpreting and using anatomical and physiological health information for three different people presenting with different conditions. · Completed Industry Placement Logbook including attendance sheet and professional practice assessment tasks for this unit of competency. · Assessment cover sheet for the assessment task with all areas duly completed by you and the assessor. Assessment outcomes For unit of competency: Assessments carry two potential outcomes for each unit of competency level, i.e. C (Competent) and NYC (Not Yet Competent). The latter outcome requires you to undergo more training and experience or provide further evidence. On completion of the unit, if the assessor is satisfied that you have provided appropriate evidence and satisfied all requirements necessary to meet criteria in line with the Rules of Evidence, you will be awarded C (Competent). If it is considered that you failed to meet the necessary requirements, you will be awarded NYC (Not Yet Competent) and may be reassessed in accordance with the policies and procedures of EQUALS. To be assessed as competent for this unit, you must demonstrate a satisfactory result in all assessment activities. Final assessment results are to be recorded on the Summary of Assessment form. For assessment task: Tasks carry two assessment outcomes, i.e. S (Satisfactory) and NYS (Not Yet Satisfactory). On the individual cover sheet for assessment tasks, the assessor must mark S (Satisfactory) if you have satisfactorily completed the task, submitted all necessary evidence and met the assessment criteria. If you have not satisfactorily completed the task, the evidence is insufficient and all requirements have not been met you will be marked NYS (Not Yet Satisfactory). Re-assessment: If, after the first attempt, you have proved to be unsuccessful at achieving competency you will be given two further opportunities for reassessment at a mutually agreed time and date. For further details, refer to EQUALS’ Re-Assessment Policy and Course Progress Policy. Evidence criteria used to judge the quality of performance The evidence criteria ensure the intent of the assessment tool is met and that you are able to demonstrate you have valid, sufficient, authentic and current skills and knowledge relevant to the unit. The criteria confirm the evidence provided by you: · Directly relates to the competency being assessed · Is enough to allow the assessor to make a valid judgement · Is your own work · Shows currency of the skills and knowledge required. Evidence criteria are used by an assessor to ensure consistent outcomes when: · Checking evidence quality (i.e. the rules of evidence) · Judging how well you performed according to the standard expected, and · Collating evidence from multiple sources to make an overall judgement.

EQUALS will also retain sufficient data to be able to reissue AQF certification documentation for a period of 30 years. Where possible assessors will retain the actual piece(s) of work completed by you. The completed evidence criteria may be sufficient where it is not possible to retain your actual work. However, EQUALS will ensure that the retained evidence has enough detail to demonstrate the judgement made of your performance against the standard required. Assessor feedback Each assessment tool requires an assessor to provide feedback to you, both where competency has been demonstrated and where further evidence is required. Providing feedback shows fairness in the assessment process and allows
