Hi kyla,
Think about a time when you assessed the needs of an individual. Don't look at the unit as a whole just take one element at a time.
'a' is about when you first met the individual. Start with a bit of background such as "Mary is 82 and was having difficulties managing at home since her husband died."
To cover 414a 1 you say something like "I met with Mary's Social Worker who told me why she needed to come into residential care. She showed me her records and risk the assessments that had been carried out in her home".
414a 2 - "Through discussion with her Social Worker I discovered that English is not Mary's first language and she gets easily confused, she relies on her daughter, Anne, to explain things to her."
Work through the PCs and cover as many as you can.
414b is about 'Supporting staff, individuals and key people to identify changes in the care needs of individuals'. Work through the PCs as with 'a'.
414c 'Revise assessments to meet the changing needs and preferences' can be covered by a review meeting where any identified changes in needs are discussed and plans are made to meet them.
Just think what each PC is asking and what you need to say to fully cover it.
Hope that helps
Aunty Sue
