This Candidate Assessment Guide should be used to provide information and instructions to the reader regarding the assessment requirements for the unit CHCMHS010 Implement recovery oriented approaches to complexity.
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:
• Part A – General instructions to you
• Part B – 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 and performance criteria as well as the required knowledge and skills for this unit.
Application of the unit
Once competency has been achieved for this unit, you will be able to competently identify and respond to issues of complexity when supporting people living with mental illness and their care networks.
This includes the ability to:
1. Identify the person’s issues that may contribute to complexity
2. Identify worker or service issues that may affect capacity to work with the person
3. Identify environmental issues that may contribute to complexity
4. Work collaboratively to prioritise needs and develop self-determined directions
5. Coordinate and negotiate recovery oriented service
6. Address challenges to communication and relationships
7. Review and reflect on practice
Assessment Outcomes
Each Assessment Task carries 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/or all requirements have not been met, you will be marked as NYS (Not Yet Satisfactory) and provided with the opportunity to be reassessed in accordance with EQUAS policies and procedures.
Re-assessment
If, after the first attempt, you have proved to be unsuccessful at achieving a satisfactory result, 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
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 you to understand why a result was awarded.
The assessor will provide feedback to you on any assessment that you have submitted. You are responsible for retaining a copy of the feedback provided, together with your submission, throughout the course.
Final Assessment:
On completion of this unit, if the assessor is satisfied that you have provided appropriate evidence and satisfied all necessary requirements to meet the unit criteria in line with the Rules of Evidence, you will be awarded C (Competent). If it is considered that you have failed to meet the necessary requirements of the unit and/or assessment tasks, you will be awarded NYC (Not Yet Competent) and provided with the opportunity to be reassessed in accordance with EQUALS policies and procedures. To achieve competency (C) for this unit, you must demonstrate a satisfactory result in all assessment tasks. Final assessment results are to be recorded on the Summary of Assessment form.
Support
You can contact your assessor at mutually agreed times to seek clarification on assessment information, instructions and tasks.
Assessor intervention
The assessor will:
• Ensure you are ready for assessment and defer the assessment if this is not the case.
• Provide feedback to you at the completion of the assessment.
• Participate in role play, when required, but not interfere in any way with the assessment.
• Ensure assessment activities are not harmful to you in any way. If they might impact on your safety or that of others, the assessment will be immediately stopped.
Plagiarism, cheating, collusion and assessment dishonesty
Plagiarism, cheating and collusion are considered as serious matters. Any evidence that you have participated in plagiarism, cheating and collusion will be treated on a case by case basis. Consequences for candidates found to have engaged in these practices may include being deemed Not Yet Satisfactory for that assessment or Not Yet Competent in the unit. You may also be excluded from the course. For more information, refer to EQUALS’ Academic Misconduct Policy and Procedure, available to view here: https://www.equals.edu.au/policies/.

Assessment Task: Simulation
For this assessment, you are required to assume the role of a service provider working in a mental health organisation.
This assessment requires you to respond to issues of complexity when supporting people living with mental illness. Your role is to work with the person and their care networks to develop and implement a recovery plan using a strengths-based approach and that acknowledges that complexity is not a characteristic of an individual.
You will be required to demonstrate the criterion identified in each of the four parts for this assessment. As you are demonstrating each part of this assessment you will also need to consider and use effective communication skills. This will require you to:
communication skills. This will require you to:
• Communicate clearly, honestly and transparently to develop and maintain trusting relationships
• Adapt the communication style and language to meet the needs of others, identifying and addressing any barriers
• Adapt to changing circumstances and respond to the reactions and feedback of others, including responding to person in distress or crisis
• Proactively anticipate change and utilise advanced negotiation skills to address challenges and resolve systemic issues
• Respond to de-escalate potential incidents or risks and promote safety
• Promote and support self advocacy
Part 1 – Identify Needs
• At this stage of the assessment, you will meet with the person with mental health and complexity issues individually to identify their issues and needs as well as determining the environmental issues that may contribute to complexity and your and/or the services ability to work with the person. You will need to:
• Welcome the person to your service in an inviting and respectful way. You will need to take into consideration that this person may have experienced trauma and should apply the principles of trauma informed care to your practice. Ensure you consider your communication skills as identified earlier in this assessment.
• Using motivational interviewing techniques, invite the person to share their life experience, values, hopes, expectations and needs and respond sensitively and warmly, you should exchange relatable information with the person to assist in facilitating understanding of issues and establish rapport. If you are unable to draw on personal experience, consider discussing experiences of people who may be in a similar situation (in line with confidentiality).
• Use effective communication skills to identify with the person the breadth and type of issues they are experiencing and discuss any associated or impacting factors. Consider using specific assessment tools when helping the person to identify their issues.
• Respect and uphold people’s complex needs and aspirations across cultural, spiritual, relationship, emotional, physical, social and economic realms—not just in relation to their illness or mental health issues
• Use active listening to ensure the person’s experiences and issues are heard to support exploration and validation of issues raised.
• In collaboration with the person, record notes of issues and needs and gain their consent to share their information in exploration of support options
• Identify if the person may experience any limitations to services, people, community activities etc relating to where they live – is this contributing to their complexity?
• Determine and discuss the type and extent of the person’s social and support network, who can they rely on? What do they like to do for fun? How often do they engage with others and/or their community? If the person is demonstrating social exclusion, you will need to discuss ways of overcoming this such as linking them in with support groups, local community events, identifying people who are close to them who they would be able to go to for support etc.
• Provide information to the person relating to the objectives of the current National Mental Health Policy and National Mental Health Plan as well as some programs or services that are associated with this that could be of benefit to them. You will need to research this information, once you are aware of their mental health and complex issues, look at sites such as mindhealthconnect. Discuss funding availability for programs (as relevant) such as the NDIS/Partners in recovery or Medicare and determine if the person will meet the criteria for funding and/or be able to access specific services.
• Consider the strengths and limitations as well as expertise and experience of yourself and your service for working with the person and their current mental health and complexity issues. You will need to make recommendations and referrals as necessary to ensure they have access to the appropriate service delivery in line with their values and preferences.
Part 2 – Prioritise needs
• Provide information to the person on how the following practice approaches can assist with prioritising needs:
• motivational interviewing • solution focused approaches
• strength based approaches • cognitive behavioural approaches
• narrative approaches • acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT)
• dialectal behavioural therapy You will need to promote and support self-advocacy and encourage the person to consider and select options that they feel most comfortable with.
• Using one or more of the above approaches, prioritise needs and hopes in collaboration with the person, you will need to document these in the person’s recovery plan
• Discuss and agree on timelines for achieving their goals (needs and hopes) and discuss available options to meet these needs. Consider the resources, services and support options that may be available to them and if they will be attainable within the identified timeframes. Record the timelines and options in the person’s recovery plan • In conjunction with the person, explore risks, opportunities and strategies that may be associated with their goals – consider what risks the person will need to take as well as the risks of what may happen as a result of things not going to plan, discuss the opportunities that may arise from addressing their needs and hopes and the strategies that will need to be put in place to achieve them.
• Help the person to consider who else they would like to involve in their recovery. Discuss their support network and highlight the importance of including them in the recovery process. It may also be necessary to include other services or professionals, you should discuss the possibility of this and determine who these services and professionals will be. You will need to record the details of who is to be involved in the person’s recovery plan.
• Develop and agree on contingency plans in the event one of their options, strategies and/or services does not provide the person with the outcome they were hoping for. You will need to discuss all of the possible outcomes and discuss what they would like to do in this situation. Is there an alternative option? Do they need to adjust or rearrange their goals? Record details of the contingency plans in the person’s recovery plan.
• Discuss with person how their needs and circumstance may change throughout their recovery process, and discuss how your service provision could adapt to fit with these changes. You will need to discuss possible scenarios for changing needs and the type of services/options that would be available should these scenarios come to fruition. Record details of anticipated changing needs and how you will respond to these in the person’s recovery plan.
Part 3 – Coordinate and negotiate recovery-oriented service
This part of the assessment will focus on establishing and maintaining partnerships with support networks and other local services or supports to create sustainable service pathways. You will need to:
• Consider the information you have previously obtained from the person to determine the best type of supports for their recovery. To establish the type of support they can offer, you may need to visit local service providers and/or research their relevant websites. Depending on the person’s needs, you may consider one or more of the following:
• General practitioners, psychiatrists and other allied health practitioners
• local area mental health services and hospital networks • housing services
• employment services and agencies • training organisations, including the TAFE and university sector
• Commonwealth and state government agencies such as Centrelink and the Department of Human Services
• recreation and sporting organisations
• Beyond Blue
• Their family and carers
• Once you have gathered the relevant information on possible supports, you will need to discuss these with the person to establish which would be most beneficial and preferential to their recovery.
• Once the relevant supports have been discussed and agreed on you will need to gain the consent of the person to share their information (as required) with relevant supports and services. Record this information in the person’s recovery plan.
• Considering the services the person would like to engage with, you will need to begin to form a partnership with these services to create a sustainable service pathway. You will need to connect with a minimum of 2 support organisations to obtain further information and begin to establish a relationship for ongoing support, you will need to document, the name of the organisation, what services they provide, the contact person, what information is required to attend, the timeframe of support offered, if there are any waiting times to attend the service, any other relevant information. Record this information in “notes” to include with the person’s recovery plan
• Foster networks with colleagues, who for the purpose of this assessment will be your classmates, to integrate existing service provision. You will need to work effectively with a minimum of 3 of your classmates (colleagues), share information regarding your person’s issues and seek their input and information relating to service provision. Record this information in “notes” to include with the person’s recovery plan
• Invite the person’s family/friends and/or carers to attend your service with the person to begin to establish a supportive and collaborative partnership. Your classmates (a minimum of 1), for the purpose of this assessment, will play the person’s family/friends and/or carers. You will need to share information (with the person’s consent) about the person’s issues and discuss with them how they can support the person in their recovery.
• Arrange a follow up meeting with the person, which, for the purpose of this assessment will occur immediately following meeting with them and their family/friends/carers and we will assume this meeting is occurring one month from the previous meeting.
• During your meeting with the person, you will discuss how their recovery is progressing, determine if there have been any changes to their issues and gain their feedback as to whether their needs are being met by service options and supports. Identify any gaps and discuss ways in which to overcome these or consider alternative options.
• Use strategies such as self-advocacy and self efficacy to actively inspire and foster the person’s involvement in their recovery.
• Discuss with the person the importance of gathering their regular feedback regarding service provision to ensure their needs and recovery are being met and encourage them to provide you with feedback if any changes were to occur. You will also need to establish a plan for when ongoing follow up will occur. This may be face to face or via telephone. Details of the plan for follow up are to be recorded in the recovery plan.
Part 4 – Review and reflect on practice
• Once you have completed your simulation exercise with the person, you will need to arrange a meeting with your supervisor (assessor) to discuss aspects and receive feedback on your service delivery, this may include suggestions for how to improve your practice, what you did particularly well, how you could have approached certain aspects etc.
• Following this feedback, you will be required to write an approximate 500 - 1000 word reflection report that will include:
• What you have learned from the person’s experience and how this may inform your future practice (would you do anything differently)
• How you were able to meet the person’s needs – were the resources adequate, were the supports you identified suitable?
• Did you identify or encounter any systemic and personal issues and challenges that affected your service delivery?
• What would you identify as some of your strengths and limitations in dealing with the person’s circumstances?
• Did you feel you had good communication with the person and their supports, were you able to build an effective relationship with them?
• Have you identified the need for additional learning or professional development before working with people with similar issues in the future?
• The feedback you received from your supervisor and how you will implement this into future practice.
