Assessment Tasks

1 Written Assessment

Assessment Title
Written Assessment

Task Description

Identify a family member or friend who has spent at least 1 day in a care facility and received at least two main meals at the facility within the last 5 years, who is willing to participate in an interview about the food they consumed while at the facility. Care facilities can be hospitals, aged care homes, nursing home and live-in rehabilitation centres. Please contact the unit coordinator for assistance if you are having difficulty identifying someone to interview.

Conduct an interview, either in person, over the phone, or using web conferencing, and ask pre-prepared questions. A list of suggested questions is included in the Unit Assessment guide on the unit Moodle page. You should also be prepared to ask additional questions to get a greater level of detail if deemed appropriate.

You will need to determine the type of food production method used (cook-chill, cook-freeze or cook- fresh) at the care facility that your interviewee attended. This can often be found on the care facility's internet page. In some instances, a phone call to the facility to seek this information may be required.

Conduct research, using the scientific and grey literature in relation to the type of food production method that your interviewee’s care facility uses. You will need to establish the key advantages and limitations associated with the specified food production method. You will also need to investigate the other two types of food production methods also using the scientific literature to allow a comparison of the different types of methods.

You are then to compile the information gathered from your research about food production methods and the responses from your interviewee to produce a magazine article. The magazine article needs to be written using engaging scientific language. The magazine article is for the intended inclusion in a reputable scientific magazine, read by a professional audience.

The report should include the following:

  • A cover page that includes your name, student number, assessment title, unit code, unit coordinator’s name, home course and word count. If you have received an extension, include the extension date.
  • Introduction: Introduce the main themes covered in your article as well as your interviewee and the food production method used at the associated care facility.
  • Explore the food production method from your interviewee’s care facility including a discussion of the associated advantages and limitations using the literature. You should also consider the perspective of the facility (those making and serving the food) and the person receiving the food when discussing the food production methods. Where relevant, incorporate your interviewee's responses as anecdotal evidence.
  • Explore the other two food production methods in comparison to the food production method used by your interviewee's care facility. Discuss the advantages and limitations of these food production methods.
  • Summarise the key characteristics of an ideal food production method with justification.

2 Case Study

Assessment Title
Case Study

Task Description

You are the manager of the food service department of a 100-room low-care aged care facility in a rural location, that provides long-term stay for people over the age of 65years. You are passionate about providing the patients with foods that they are likely to consider to be culturally acceptable, flavoursome, without compromising nutrition. You are also mindful of the facility’s budgetary constraints and that the facility does not want to extend the food budget without very good reason.

There has been very little change to the meals that are available to residents over the last 10 years. The facilities General Practioner (GP) weighs the residents monthly and she has reported to the facility manager that most residents seem to be rapidly gaining weight. You and your team would like to contribute to providing better meals and snack options for the residents.

You have been asked by the facility’s manager to provide a report about the changes you propose to enable a better suited menu. You have decided to choose one of the standard days from the current set menu and propose (with justification) the changes you would like to make to the foods provided, based on the general needs and demographics of current residents.

Task Description

You will need to complete the template provided and a written report to Moodle by Monday 18th September 5:00pm AEST.

Use the following information to complete the task.

 

1-day meal plan from the standard set menu

Breakfast: 1 cup of Cornflakes with low fat milk

Morning Tea: 1 cup canned mixed fruit in syrup, Chocolate chip cookie, Tea/coffee

Lunch: 4 fried spring rolls, hot chips, small salad and soft drink of choice

Afternoon Tea: Tea/coffee, Arnott’s assorted sweet biscuits

Dinner: Scrambled eggs with cheese, 2 rashers of fried bacon, 2 slices of white bread with butter and grilled tomatoes

Supper: Sponge cake with custard, Tea/coffee

 

Current general demographic of the 100 residents living in the low-care facility

- Average age: 76 years of age, mostly good dentition, and good general health

- Religion of residents: 35% Christian, 25% Muslim, 20% Hindu, 20% no religion stated

This task will require you to use the following internet web-based databases.

Ø Australian Dietary Guidelines

 

Ø The Australian Food Composition Database

https://www.foodstandards.gov.au/science/monitoringnutrients/afcd/Pages/default.aspx

To determine the energy and macronutrient content of the current 1-day meal plan as well as your proposed 1-day meal plan for your case study

 

Ø Coles online or Woolworths online

https://shop.coles.com.au/a/national/everything/search/coles%20online

https://www.woolworths.com.au/

To determine the cost of the current 1-day meal plan as well as your proposed 1-day meal plan.

 

Ø The Food Safety standards (Australian)

https://www.foodstandards.gov.au/industry/safetystandards/pages/default.aspx

In particular, Chapter 3, Standard 3.2.2, 3.2.3, 3.3.1

To view the current Food Safety Standards in Australia that all facilities must comply

 

Ø Healthy food and drinks, a better choice, Queensland Government

https://www.health.qld.gov.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0042/908889/abc-strategy.pdf

Suggested approach to gather information required for this task

1. Use an online supermarket internet site to determine the cost of the 1-day meal plan

2. Use the Australian Food Composition Database to determine the energy and macronutrient content of the 1-day meal plan

3. Use the Queensland Health “Healthy Food & drinks a better choice”, Australian Dietary Guidelines and Australian guide to healthy eating, to determine the proportion of green, amber and red foods in the 1-day meal plan

4. Once you have developed an alternative suggested proposed 1-day meal plan, you will need to complete steps 1. – 3. with the new proposed meal plan

5. Investigate the different considerations between food service in a rural area versus a metropolitan area

The 1000-word report should include the following;

· Introduction of the facility’s residents and priorities/considerations for the food service department when choosing meals for residents

· A description of why the current set menu is not appropriate for the facility in relation to current Queensland Health guidelines (traffic light system) and nutrition for the residents.

· The proposed changes to the set menu with justification in relation to the facility’s demographic profile, Queensland Health government guidelines (A Better Choice) and the facility’s budgetary constraints.

· How the proposed changes will comply with the Australian Food Safety standards (choose at least two requirements for discussion in the presentation, Chapter 3 of the FSANZ Food Standards Code)

· Describe how the proposed 1-day menu has considered that the facility is placed in a semi-rural area. This will require a brief description of how a regional/rural facility’s differ from a metropolitan facility, especially in relation food service

· A strong conclusion summarising why the management team should reconsider the food available to residents

· Referencing, both in-text citations and a reference list is required

· Please note: Calculations are needed to be shown when determining the nutritional composition of the current set menu and the proposed menu. You will also need to clearly describe the suggested proposed menu. These may be placed in the Appendix.

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.
