Essay Voices & Choices – Principles of Personalised Care – Nursing Assignment Help

Assignment Task:

Summative Assessment task details and instructions

Personalised care promotes the nurse to consider the ‘person’ as opposed to the ‘patient’ (NHS England, 2019; Nursing and Midwifery Council [NMC], 2018). In doing so, you will need to use appropriate communication skills and interpersonal skills to support and enable people to make informed choices within their episodes of care. This assignment will centre around a person’s story of an episode of care. You will need to choose one story/experience and address the assessment criteria set out under ‘Assessment Criteria’. In week 8 at the ‘Service User and Carer Voices Day,’ you will hear personal accounts from Service Users and Cares of their experiences, which you may want to also use. 

To FULLY meet the assessment criteria, you need to: 

• Briefly summarise the person episode of care and describe the importance of partnership working between the nurse and person in relation to personalised care and support planning. 

• Explain how a nurse can use communication and interpersonal skills within this person’s episode of care, in identifying what matters to the person. 

• Describe one advantage of and one barrier to interprofessional teamwork in relation to the persons episode of care. 

• Describe how social prescribing could support the persons health and wellbeing as well as the health and wellbeing of their family and carers.
