General Information

Overview

This unit is designed to introduce you to the innovative and contemporary Recovery approach to mental health care. The lived experience perspective brings a different viewpoint to the classroom and creates a dynamic, ‘real world’ learning environment. You will develop a comprehensive knowledge of the factors that promote Recovery within diverse populations, the importance of Recovery within mental health settings, the significance of collaborative relationships with consumers, families and other supports and the important leadership role of consumers in developing the Recovery approach. You will identify the skills required by nurses working within a Recovery system of care.

Previous Student Feedback

Feedback, Recommendations and Responses

Every unit is reviewed for enhancement each year. At the most recent review, the following staff and student feedback items were identified and recommendations were made.

Feedback from Feedback forum

Feedback

Some students commented on how much they learned from the second assessment where students complete a self care plan. This is a quote from the forum - "I just wanted to say how much i am enjoying this second assignment, it is rare in this busy world that we take time to self-care and to be able to do it during study is a great bonus. I am so bad at prioritising myself and it took this assignment to make me do it. Not only have i worked on my goal for this assignment but i have gone on to make so many other positive changes in my life, and so have others in my family".

Recommendation

Consider the student self care plan in future assessments. Consider other activities to enhance student learning in the area of self care.

Feedback from Feedback forum

Feedback

Some students felt that the use of a Zoom recording to explain Blooms Taxonomy was useful in improving their understanding of assessment objectives.

Recommendation

Continue to offer the Zoom on Blooms Taxonomy to enhance learning.

Feedback from Emails

Feedback

Some students felt that the feedback they received from markers was not adequate.

Recommendation

Ensure markers provide sound feedback to students on their assessments.

Feedback from Forums and emails.

Feedback

Students discussed that Zoom sessions focusing specifically on assessment tasks leading up to assessments were beneficial.

Recommendation

Continue to offer Zoom sessions and recorded Zoom sessions on assessment specific content leading up to assessment tasks.

Task Description

Reflective Essay Due Week 10 – Monday at 1155 PM

 

This assignment is weighted as 60% of your overall mark.

This assessment relates to Learning Objectives:

1 – Discuss factors that promote Recovery in diverse cultural and socio-economic populations.

2 – Explore the importance of consumer leadership and participation, therapeutic relationships and co-production in the development of Recovery approach.

3 – Relate the importance of family and other supports in Recovery planning and service delivery.

4 – Review the attributes required by a registered nurse to promote and facilitate Recovery including the need for effective self-care.

Recognising areas in their life where they would like to make a positive change and engaging in good self-care are key components of Recovery.   The experience of identifying a goal, planning how to achieve it, implementing the plan, and receiving support to achieve the goal will assist you to better understand the experience for people accessing mental health services.

Assignment details

Written Assessment on a self-care Recovery Journey

Summarise your experience planning, implementing, and reviewing a self-directed, self-care plan.

This will have two components.

A copy of the support plan created. 

A reflective essay summarising the experience.  Word limit 1,500 words (+/- 10%).

Additional information

The goal of this assessment is to demonstrate your understanding of:

  • Factors that help and/or hinder effective self-care
  • Factors that help and/or hinder effective support
  • The role of plans and strategies in relation to self-care
  • The role of family and other social supports in putting a plan into action

Your task is to:

1.      Identify a self-care goal using the S.M.A.R.T. goal principles.

2.      Identify and recruit people to support you to meet your goal.

3.      Collaborate with your support people to develop a support plan.  Refer to Part A for more information.

4.      Begin the journey of implementing your plan.

5.      Regularly review how the plan is going

6.      Present a written overview of the process and your overall reflection

 

 

Part A: 

Your support plan should identify:

o   What area of your life you want to work on.

o   What your goal(s) are.

o   How you propose to achieve your goal.

o   Who is in your support network and what role will they play?

o   Possible challenges you may encounter and strategies to address them.

When developing your plan remember you are modelling a Recovery type journey to experience and learn what it might be like for people with a lived experience of mental illness to do this process. In keeping with the principles of Recovery it should focus on and utilise your strengths and while you have a support network this journey is to be self-directed. 

The plan must also utilise references to support and guide your self-care goal.  In text citations to be included in the support plan.  References are to be included at the end of the overall assignment.

The plan does not have to be presented in an essay format.    Remember it is the plan you are going to have throughout so it might be something in a format you would put up on the fridge or other obvious places.  The use of pictures, images, and drawings is acceptable.  The plan is not graded.  It is to be included to provide context for your written essay.

Part B: 

Write a reflective essay that summarises your experience of this process. 

It should include consideration of the following:

o   What did it feel like to identify a goal?

o   What did it feel like to identify a support network?

o   How did it feel to recruit your support network?

Academic Integrity Statement

As a CQUniversity student you are expected to act honestly in all aspects of your academic work.

Any assessable work undertaken or submitted for review or assessment must be your own work. Assessable work is any type of work you do to meet the assessment requirements in the unit, including draft work submitted for review and feedback and final work to be assessed.

When you use the ideas, words or data of others in your assessment, you must thoroughly and clearly acknowledge the source of this information by using the correct referencing style for your unit. Using others’ work without proper acknowledgement may be considered a form of intellectual dishonesty.

Participating honestly, respectfully, responsibly, and fairly in your university study ensures the CQUniversity qualification you earn will be valued as a true indication of your individual academic achievement and will continue to receive the respect and recognition it deserves.

As a student, you are responsible for reading and following CQUniversity’s policies, including the Student Academic Integrity Policy and Procedure. This policy sets out CQUniversity’s expectations of you to act with integrity, examples of academic integrity breaches to avoid, the processes used to address alleged breaches of academic integrity, and potential penalties.

What is a breach of academic integrity?

A breach of academic integrity includes but is not limited to plagiarism, self-plagiarism, collusion, cheating, contract cheating, and academic misconduct. The Student Academic Integrity Policy and Procedure defines what these terms mean and gives examples.

Why is academic integrity important?

A breach of academic integrity may result in one or more penalties, including suspension or even expulsion from the University. It can also have negative implications for student visas and future enrolment at CQUniversity or elsewhere. Students who engage in contract cheating also risk being blackmailed by contract cheating services.

Where can I get assistance?

For academic advice and guidance, the Academic Learning Centre (ALC) can support you in becoming confident in completing assessments with integrity and of high standard.
