Case study (questions 1–4)

Jacinta is Harry’s new support worker. Harry is 16 years old and has a mild intellectual disability. He experiences some communication challenges. Jacinta reads in his service plan that Harry dislikes school and wants to leave as soon as possible. He attends specialised classes in his local school, which are partially funded through Jacinta’s workplace. However, these classes have recently been cut, resulting in Harry’s abrupt return to the mainstream school for several days per week.

‘I hate school! Theo’s working in a car shop. He fixes the cars. All day!’

‘Sounds like a fun job, Harry. Theo’s your brother, right?’ Jacinta asks.

Harry nods. ‘Theo said maybe I could work there too?’ He looks excitedly at Jacinta. ‘But Mrs Hoover said I couldn’t. She’s mean.’ He frowns and looks angry.

‘Mrs Hoover is your new teacher, isn’t she?’ Jacinta frowns. ‘I don’t think that was the right thing to say, Harry. I think there are lots of things that you could do working with cars. Let me look into it.’

Case study (questions 8–10)

Consuela arrives at work in the morning to find a scrawled phone message placed on her desk among a pile of paperwork. The message only records the first name ‘Zelda’, a phone number and a message that she doesn’t need to come today.

Consuela checks her records and matches the phone number with Kylie, a young woman with Down Syndrome that she was due to meet that morning to provide respite to Zelda, Kylie’s mother. Consuela calls Zelda, who says that Kylie is still asleep and asks if she can come that afternoon instead. Zelda sounds very flustered and anxious.

Consuela’s workplace has just set in place a new procedure for missed appointments, requiring two business days’ notice to reschedule. She remembers that this is the second time in as many months that Kylie has missed her appointment due to oversleeping. Consuela’s workplace has a policy of only scheduling respite appointments in the morning, as she has other duties to complete in the afternoons.
