enni is providing support to Robert, a child who has a
developmental delay and cystic fibrosis, to assist him in developing
some community participation options in line with his
individualised plan.
His plan includes a goal to attend a camp run by a community
organisation without his parents being present. This will be the
first camp Robert has attended and his parents have expressed
concern about his ability to manage on his own. Robert has not
slept away from home before and still likes to have his mum tuck
him in each night before sleep. He is able to change his own
clothes but has never tried to pack a bag or look after his
belongings for an extended period before. He has never slept in a
sleeping bag and so does not know how to pack or unpack one from
its bag.
The family live a long way from the camp location and they do
not have a reliable car to transport Robert to the camp. Robert’s
mother has also expressed concern about how medication for Robert
will be managed as he is not yet able to administer his own
medication.
1. Jenni is unsure about how medication is managed in situations
where her organisation is involved in providing services. Who could
she consult for advice about medication procedures for Robert,
given that he is receiving services from her organisation to help
him achieve his goals? Whom should she consult (within the
organisation)? Where else can she get information about
medication procedures (within the organisation)?
2.Jenni wants to share information with Robert about how they
could work together to meet the goals in his individual plan. What
is an appropriate way she could do this to ensure Robert can
understand the goals? this is important to consider but there
are things Jenni can do. List some of these things. How would you
share information with a child appropriately?
