INTRODUCTION
Multidisciplinary approach or integrated care pathways aim at provided the patient with a
complete comprehensive care which is mostly required in taking care of old age patients. These
old age patients often are suffering from multiple disorders, providing treatment to such patients
is made easy by the multidisciplinary approach (Morton, Masters, and Cowburn, 2018). This
report consists of discussion on integrated care pathways for care providing to receive positive
outcomes. It includes discussion on the importance of including the individual in making
decisions related to his own care which is an important element of person-centred care. The
report also consists of the importance of communication skills in care providing professionals in
order to ensure the patients to exercise their rights related to their own care. It also consists of
discussion on the impact of relationships within the multidisciplinary team and the relationship
between the service-user and care provider on the process of care providing.
MAIN BODY
LO 1
P1 Local resources and provision which supports the integrated care working.
Local resources are defined as all material, facility, personal, funds and anything else that
can be used in examination or providing healthcare services. Local resources include financial,
human resource, equipment and technologies for examination or assessment of service user.
Financial resources providing financial supports to the care home persons. It plays an important
role because lots of people do not access services due to high cost. It pays bills by funds,
insurance schemes and government budget. Human resources hire nursing staff and doctors
which provide services to patient. This is managing variable shifts, schedules and improve
patient satisfaction. Human resources manager are able to effectively communicate with all staff
members. It provides necessary training to staff to stay up to date. They maintain employment
detail of all staff in the organization.
Some equipment like wheelchair, walking aids, thermometer, nebulizer, lifting slings,
pulse oximeter, stethoscopes, blood pressure monitor, emergency medical equipment and lab
diagnosis equipment should be available at care home. It can help in to conduct easy and proper
care. They used for specific purpose for diagnosis and treatment of disease.

In healthcare system technology aid help in transform unsuitable healthcare system into
suitable system. It equalizes relationship between healthcare provider and patient and provide
cheaper, faster and more effective solutions. There is some technological aid like speech aids to
enhance natural speech examples of which are amplifiers, hearing machine, telehealth and
telemedicine which monitor patient's medication compliance and act as real time reminders for
patients to take medicine as prescribed. It used for achieving reduction in human errors, increases
chance of positive outcomes, improving practice effectiveness, data tracking over time and
saving time.
Multidisciplinary include different health professionals form different organization which
are working together and deliver high quality services and care to patients. It enhances
productivity and save time. This includes general practitioner, nurses, community nurses, health
professional such as psychologist, physiotherapist, gynaecologist, health workers and social
workers. Multidisciplinary care provides satisfaction and better treatment planning to concerned
and increase job satisfaction to multidisciplinary care service providers.
Doctors are diagnosing every patient on the basis of blood and tissue sample, X-ray scans
and other reports and provide effective and suitable treatment. Nurses plays an important role in
multidisciplinary care. Nurses are directly coordinate with both doctors and patients. They are
trained to understand sign and symptoms. For example- blood pressure, pulse rate and monitor
oxygen level etc. Social workers are also incorporate which provide mental and financial support
to those patients who does not afford medical facilities by funding.
The home care services provided by the Red-bridge borough in London is a place of care
and support. service provider work for patient they do every activity of the patient such as
cleaning, bathing, cleaning stools, sanitizing places, bed cleaning, etc. It is a place which enables
the safety, security and in dependency of the patient. The services provided by the red-bridge
borough can ease the management of an ongoing medication condition. The place is covered by
mostly elderly patient which is suffering from multiple disease such as hypertension, diabetes,
cardiac arrest, osteoarthritis etc. So, they need proper take care and guidance (Zonneveld and
et.al 2018).

P2 Current local unmet need related to provision of healthcare and support services in own
locale.
The healthcare and support services provided by the red-bridge borough in London have
many resources which is beneficial in the elderly patient treatment like it provide human
resources, therapy (regular exercise for cardiac patient, and for paralysed patient), some medical
instruments like stethoscope, blood pressure checking machine, oxygen level checking machine,
etc. but there are also many other resources which the service provider is unable to meet the
requirement of the elderly patient, as patient is suffering from a number of disease such as
osteoarthritis, cardiac disorders, stroke, hypertension and metabolic disorder such as diabetes.
Required regular dialysis which services provider unable to provide dialysis on regular term. It
also includes fast machine for the need of treatment such as sonography machine, oxygen
cylinder, MRI machine, etc.
The service provider avoids the unnecessary hospitalisation, if patient is suffering from
normal flue then they get recovered by proper take and guidance. There is no need to
hospitalised unnecessarily. But sometimes need to admit the patient quickly but delayed by the
service provider that can cause critical condition to the patient, as elderly patient recovery rate is
slow. The services provided by the Red-bridge borough promote companionship with the elderly
patient which results in the patient being comfortable, safe and supportive which can further
improve the recovery speed of the patient. But if companionship is not developing in between the
patient and service provider then there can be difficulty in recovery rate or speed.
The four key element is necessary for the service provider in their services including care,
cure, communication and companionship. The service provider can have aided the assistance to
safely managing the task around the patient. As patient need proper focus and concentration in
the treatment because they are suffering from multiple disease such as hypertension,
osteoarthritis, stroke, they need quick treatment when any healthcare conditions occur.
There are many healthcare services provided by the red-bridge borough in London such
as doctors (gynaecologist, surgeon, physiotherapist), nurses, cleaning staff, machine operator,
pharmacist, psychiatrist, etc. because the patient is suffering from the multiple diseases such as
hypertension, stroke, diabetes, etc. So, they need proper treatment and guidance along with focus
and guidance.

The specialised doctors are required in the treatment of the particular diseases such as
cardiac surgeon required for the treatment of cardiac disease. Neurosurgeon required for the
treatments of neurons related disease. Orthopaedics is required for the bones related treatments,
oncologist specialist required for cancer treatments. Physiotherapist are also available in service
provider to provide the services in the treatments of the patient who is suffering from the bone
related problem or for doing the regular exercise for the healthy life style.
Nurses play the supportive role in the treatment of the elderly patient as they help in
doing the regular activity in the patient such as giving medicine at a time, bathing, brushing,
helping in changing clothes, helps the patient who is unable to walk properly, etc.
Cleaning staff also play crucial role in service provider as they clean the area neatly and
properly which is required for the speedy recovery. Here, unclean area can develop the
microorganism which cause rise the infection and can able to develop some other disease. So,
cleaning staff is must essential in the service provider.
In care home, there are different type of interagency care according to need of
individual requiring such as home care, Alzheimer's and Parkinson’s related care, diabetes
patients care and cardio care.
Alzheimer's disease being a form of dementia effects the brain that control thought,
memory and language. Professional service providers are help those people for memorise things
and help in to reduce stress and support in different daily activity (Flanigan and Welsh, 2020).
M1 Difference between healthcare and social care providers
The healthcare services are more inclined towards providing services to the people to
help them get rid of their health issues and gain back their prior quality of life by providing
treatment related services including medication and therapies. On the other hand, social care
providers work for providing support to the terminally ill patients or the vulnerable group of
people.
D1 Evaluation of local resources and provisions for patients requiring multidisciplinary care
The individuals who require multidisciplinary care require every section of the hospital to
work together in order to provide comprehensive care to the patient so that the patient can
recover from his illness. Therefore, it is required that the hospital staff share good relations and
practice good communication skills to provide proper care to such patients.

LO 2
P3 Provide maintenance to an individual in a health care or support services setting towards the
identification of their own needs.
Holistic assessment is vital feature of delivering high-quality care focused on patients’
individual needs. It includes the complete health condition of the patient including physical,
social, and psychological well-being and treating people with dignity. By identifying the data
and outcomes for ensuring about the health condition. Patient history is more important for the
further medical treatment. Elderly people suffer from multiple diseases so; they need health
support to fulfil their basic needs. The facilities delivered by the red-bridge borough in London
have many assets which is valuable in the elderly patient treatment. The essential needs of an
elder person include health care, mental health safety, and self-assurance. People with diabetes
maintain a healthy balanced diet, maintain body weight, and take prescribed medicine at the
proper time. Health practitioner provides better treatment to a patient and advise them to remain
active, avoid the consumption of alcohol, and tobacco and follow a healthy diet (Hendry, 2018).
Hypertension is the most common chronic disease in an older person that can lead to heart
attack, heart failure, and kidney damage. Health supporters may help and recognize their needs
and provide holistic facilities to patients and promote self-care, eat a healthy diet, reduce
consumption of salts, reduce obesity, getting regular physical activity. Involving patients in their
own treatment means supporting in their own health and well-being it can help people to identify
their needs and take their own responsibility in recovering fast (Cosgrave, 2020).
Many older people have several long-term medical, physical, social, mental and
psychological problems this can reduce their quality of life, poor health outcomes and increase
the mortality rate. Medical and holistic assessment includes doctors, nurses, therapists, dieticians,
physiotherapists and other medical staff may identify the symptoms and provide relevant
treatment. Holistic assessment not accessing only health but may also recognize individuals with
physical, mental and social well-being. Holistic health is a multidimensional aspect of overall
health condition. For senior citizens, several kinds of health support services are available like
NGOs, and charity hospitals. Older people become incapable and helpless as the increase in the
number of diseases among old people also they did not get health care facilities, nutritious food
and a hygienic lifestyle (Petty, 2019).

NGO is non-government organization which is not depend on the government which has
main focus on providing the best services to the needy person. They can pursue various care
services to the people can survive their life easily. NGOs and other health-supporting services
improve the quality of life, provide basic needs medical care, food, shelter and provide home
care health support which reduces risk factors of diseases. Red bridge London provides the
scheme which is mainly designed for providing a quality of life, better facilities for treatment,
and support for the physical, mental and social well-being of every senior citizen. Many health
care systems around the world are designed for the young and elder population to focus on the
ongoing problems such as chronic pain, difficulties with hearing, vision and walking or daily
performing activities. Care provider focuses on the patient condition and has main aim to provide
best treatment so they can survive and cope up with their disease. Health care professionals uses
multiple clinical interventions, high level facilities within treatment levels and health-supportive
settings. Integrated care is important for older population. WHO proposed action plans for senior
citizens such as focus on the older person’s need and goals, integrated clinical care which means
person-centred care for older people, home care delivery and provides additional support
according to the patient needs.
P4 Describe care role of healthcare or maintenance services practitioner in assistant person-
centred
Person-centered care is all about focusing on patient needs and supporting people to develop
knowledge, skills and confidence. Involving patients in their own health by improving the
interaction between patient and health care provider that may help improve overall health
outcomes. Physicians, nurses and other medical staff consult patients about their health
conditions and consider patient needs and preferences to make better clinical decisions about
their health. Health care supports the patient and nursing staff in care of patient, they help and
maintain the patient medicine routine and makes the relationship better. Healthcare assistant take
care about their environment in which patient is living. The main goal of person-centred care is
the involvement of patients in their own care makes recovery fast and satisfied with the care that
patient receives. A health provider may help in recognizing needs and making the right health
decision (Eckerström and et.al., 2019).
Health care professionals and health-supportive system provides person-centered care in
hospital by – providing a safe environment, feel safe and stress-free, providing co-ordinate care

and support. Person-centered care will not only for medical health conditions but also meet their
social, emotional and personal needs by which quality care is improved that can speed up the
recovery (Teeling, 2020). Another factor to consider is that patients may have any mental
disability or injuries that require another level of treatment and communication between nurses
and medical staff in these situations patient counselling is most important that provides a support
system and is treated with specialist physicians. Health care professionals help in providing
information about their clinical treatment and process, improving hospital facilities for better
treatment, providing physical and emotional comfort, educate patient on medications and dietary
needs (Nilsen and et.al., 2022).
The services provided by the red-bridge borough in London for needy elder persons
suffering from hypertension, diabetes mellitus, stroke and cardiac disease health practitioner
provided a safe environment to the patient, and better treatment to individuals according to their
needs. Diabetic patients increase very fast health professionals recognize their symptoms and
providing better treatment to diabetic patients and advise to encourage a healthy diet with no
sugar calories, follow up prescribed medicines, attend doctor’s appointments, regular physical
activities, avoid consumption of alcohol. For people suffering from hypertension and cardiac
disease, health practitioner provides a healthy plan according to the needs of the patient, instruct
patient to monitor blood pressure, decrease salt in the diet, manage stress and maintain a healthy
weight. Health care professionals provide person-centered care for an elder person because of the
unavailability of treatment and lack of incapability and helplessness health professional provides
special care for their social, mental and physical wellbeing of elder people (Herron, 2020).
M2 Explaining involvement in different person centred assessment in individual care pathway
Involving people in their own health decision should be reflected better and speed up
recovery fast. Person-centered care planning is a conversion between patients and medical health
professionals. Care and support are developed with the person and focus on their needs (Burke,
2018). In person-centered care health and social care professionals can support people to develop
knowledge and confidence in the individual for managing their own health conditions.
Participation of patients causes improved health outcomes and quality of life and more carefully
monitors their own health. Care pathway is a set of guidelines that are applied to group of people
with similar conditions it is used to improve the quality of healthcare by recognizing disease at
certain stage (Truesdale and et.al., 2019).

D2 Evaluating the differences within care assessment across integrated care pathway
Integrated pathways are the framework of multidisciplinary which provides the step
direction for the medical treatment of the patient. Many people having the specific clinical
problems they will treat in effective manner with the specialist care provider. Risk assessment is
also analysed by the care provider by which they can protect the patient from the risk. Care
assessment is the work towards the public for their health improvement. It is provided by the
social care service provider and which includes various health care providers and medical
equipment which helps people to overcome with their disease. The integrated care pathway is
multidisciplinary care plan in which essential details of patient care are mentioned with a specific
clinical problem. Integrated model concerned with individual coordination of care and risk of
multiple conditions in their treatment. (Takeda and et.al., 2020). The integrated services provided
by the red-bridge borough in London to elder people suffering from multiple diseases health
professionals provide special care to an elder people regarding their mental, emotional, social
and physical wellbeing. Integrated care provides a number of benefits toward patient-focused
care, reducing errors in health care plan and improving clinical outcomes (Guo and et.al.,.2019).
LO 3
P5 Given the suitable leadership within the concern of own part in a health, care or support
services in order to promote effective inter-specialised and multidisciplinary team working.
As the front runner, the role is to understand the purpose, scope, objective and guide the
team to complete their task. The high quality leadership and chairing skills are the main central
components in any multidisciplinary team working. The effectiveness of multidisciplinary team
working is influenced by the multiple inter related factor such as organisation, resources
availability(as in health care centre limited resources are present, high efficient machine are not
available), case selection (multiple disease in a person, critical disease which need high quality
treatment, simple diseases which cure at the centre) , technical functionalities(high quality
machine such as sonography machine, dialysis machine etc.) team environment(such as healthy
environment or bad environment), culture, collaboration and participation of qualified person.
The leaders have efficient skills to ensure and stimulate interaction between the team member, so
that the working environment is improved. The skills require to assemble the team in order to

identify the core discipline as who is more active, who attend the patient regularly and serve the
service more efficiently (Hegney, and et.al., 2019).
The leadership require the quality in order to support the services which promote
effective inter specialised and multidisciplinary team working such as interaction between the
different health professional or between the other member who are working in the health
profession but have different responsibilities then the professional. A concept analysis is needed
to do by the leader to understand the basic team work in the health care. The effective and
efficiently multidisciplinary team working need collaborative practice (need to do working
practice together with other members in the working team). Here clear communication needed to
provide the working team in respect of disease treatment, prevention and cure. Everyone in the
team should know their job responsibilities (such as doctor’s responsibilities is to provide
treatment to the patient, Nurses responsibilities is help the patient in their regular activity etc.)
The effective leadership in multidisciplinary team working can ensure the equality (such as
person doing big or small task the leader should have to treat the person equally) and cover the
participation that may enables in better decision making (Thacker, Anka, and Penhale, 2019).
Transformational leadership require in multidisciplinary team working as in this the
leader inspire their follower with their objectives and encourage them to achieve, here leader
motivate and empower the team member to do their work efficiently. Transformational
leadership place the high value on relationship. The leadership is not about only providing the
responsibilities in certain situation to the team. It is about using the natural leadership strengths
to inspire and motivate their followers who have believe in their leader. A number of self-
assessment task needed to perform to improve decision making. As the leader, it appears to do
many task at time, the results reflect the efforts of the team working, focus on doing the task can
motivate the follower and rise the interest of doing task properly. The role as to coordinate the
complex task into simple and describe in detail about the task. The task includes the time
management, team management, integration of medical and patient related information, conflict
handling etc. (Connolly, and et.al., 2021).
P6 Explain the duties of information which are sharing between multidisciplinary teams
All the organisation which involve in multidisciplinary team have a responsibility in
order to make certain that the data is used and shared safely. All the health care service provider
has a duty to care their service-user, including the information sharing as to support the patient or

service-user care. Here person, is working within the multidisciplinary team which provide the
service care to the service-user, then must share the information about the user’s health which is
relevant and necessary with the multidisciplinary team. The team bring the knowledge and the
skills with different professional together to plan, access or manage the care of the elderly
patients. There is need to share the information to the multidisciplinary team about the service-
user personal growth and their development. The multidisciplinary team need to share the
information confidentially to the other team member about the service user’s health conditions.
There are responsibilities of the team to share the access of care records of service users
(Hasselgren, and et.al., 2020).
D3 Analysis of the own personal growth and development
It can be analysed that one needs to have good relations with the members of own team
as well as with the rest of the members of the hospital. Along with this good communication skill
need to be practised among the entire staff of the hospital. These two aspects can be really
helpful in providing integrated care to the patients.
LO 4
P7 Different types of communication methods used in health care to provide appropriate support
for individuals in order to meet and review their health and care needs.
Communication is an integral part of providing social care and the social care workers
ought to have good communication skills for effective care providing. Good communication
skills help the social care workers to maintain good working relationship amongst the co-workers
and ensure clear exchange of information amongst them. Good communication allows building
up of good relationship between the service-user and care provider which is important for
understanding the actual needs of the service-user. It also aids proper assessment of the
appropriateness of the care provided to the patients. For practising good communication skills
with the service-users, the social care workers should know how to initiate and keep a
conversation going. The care workers should have good listening and understanding skills in
order to properly organise a conversation so that the proper flow of information can be
maintained between the care provider and patient. Practising better communication skills also
require proper understanding of the disability and mental and physical status of the patient
(Ratna, 2019).

For effective communication, two methods of communication can be practiced to provide
appropriate support to individuals to meet and review their care needs:
Verbal communication- This method of communication involves usage of words and
sounds for exchange of information. This method is important for person centred care because
through this method exchange of accurate information about the issues faced by the patient takes
place. This method is also important for providing the accurate information about the treatment
plan to the patient. Verbal communication is also important for forming a good first impression
on the patient to build a feeling of faith for the care provider in the minds of the service-users.
One of the most important skill required for practising good verbal communication is the skill of
listening. The social care provider should first learn to effectively listen and understand the
information conveyed by the patient. The care provider should keep in mind the tone and pace of
delivering information. The tone should be such that exhibits empathy towards the patient. This
contributes in building a healthy relation which ensures exchange of true information from the
patient side.
Non-Verbal communication- This method of communication is capable of expressing
feelings that cannot be expressed even by means of verbal communication.
Non-verbal communication involves eye gestures, body language, facial expressions, postures,
proximity with the patient and environment of the area. The social care worker who maintains
proper eye contact with the patient gain their trust much easily because maintaining eye contact
makes the patient believe that the care provider is interested in listening to their issues and helps
build a connection between the two. Facial expressions like smiling and tensed look can have
various impact on the patient. A happy smiling face can make the patient feel comfortable with
the staff and a frowning, tensed face can create a feeling of anxiety within the patient and can
result in disapproval of the patient for the staff. Proper posture of the staff and appropriate
proximity between the patient and care provider aids in making the patient feel comfortable with
the care provider and builds a trusting relationship between the two (Chant and et. Al 2002).
P8 Communication strategies that are apt for identification and for responding to the needs of
different patients in a health care or support service
Communication in health care is very important for fulfilling the care requirements of the
service users. Unhindered communication within a healthcare setting even reduces chances of

medical errors in care providing. There are two different sets of strategies for internal
communication and for communication with the patients (Clochesy and et. Al, 2015).
Strategies for internal communication within a healthcare setting involve:
SBAR tool: S stands for situation which is related to the information like who the patient
is and what is the reason for the communication. B stands for background which includes the
information about the patient and the issue he or she is facing. A stands for assessment which is
related to information derived from detailed assessment of the patient. The care provider then put
forwards recommendations for the most appropriate course of action for the patient. This strategy
is based on addition of structure to the conversation between the patient and care provider.
Adding structure to the conversation ensures efficient flow of information from one to other end.
STICC strategy: This strategy aims at increasing the efficiency of transfer of critical
information to ensure its better understanding. This strategy also provides a structure to the
communication process. S here stands for situation containing information about the situation
and issues of the patient. T stands for task which is the information about the decided appropriate
course of action. I stand for intent explaining the intent of the decided course of action. C stands
for concern which implies the probable complications that may arise during the course of action.
C stands for calibrate implies for considering the patient's reason for denying the decided course
of action.
Strategies for conversation with the patient involve:
BATHE strategy: This strategy aims at establishing a good rapport of the care provider in
eyes of the patient and is more effective in outpatient setting. B stand for background involving
the lifestyle of the patient, A stands for affect including the information for how the lifestyle
affects the patient. T stands for trouble implying the troubles faced by the patient, H stands for
handling relating to the ways the patient is using to tackle with the troubles. E stands for empathy
which is related to the addition of statements that exhibits feeling of empathy towards the patient
by the care provider.
AWARE approach: This approach is designed for providing a good experience to the
patient. This approach is basically linked with the behaviour of the health care professionals. A
stands for announce stating that the professional needs to announce their presence and W stands
for welcome implying that the patient should be welcomed with a smile. A stands for asking the

patient for any requirements, R stands for reviewing the conversation and E stands for exiting
with cordiality (Schouten and et. Al, 2020)
M4 Demonstration of safe and clinically effective communication practices within own
professional boundaries.
The staff members within the healthcare setting should be trained in good communication
skills and should be well informed about the rules related with communication with a patient and
with a staff member. The healthcare professionals should build up a healthy relationship with the
patient but should maintain a professional relation as well. The staff members should not make
use of typical medical terms while talking to a patient for better understanding of the patient and
should exhibit empathy towards them. The staff members should also maintain a healthy
working environment with in the healthcare setting and should always practice helpful nature
towards other members (Ghaye and Lillyman, 2014).
M5 Analysis of own capacity for positive and person-centred risk-taking for supporting an
individual to maintain his own identity in order to meet his ongoing care needs.
A person-centred approach is related to care provided to the patient to help them achieve
the lifestyle they wish for. Positive risk taking also supports this aim by helping the patient to
take risk for achievement of self-growth. It is the responsibility of the nursing staff to be capable
enough to take risks for letting the patients regain their confidence and to achieve the lifestyle
they want for themselves. The care providers should try to minimize the risks in these activities
by analysing the probable causes of risks along with their intensities and pre handily keeping the
solutions prepared for the management of those risks (Phelan and et. al, 2020).
D4 Evaluation of own role in facilitating and empowering an individual to communicate their
changing care needs.
As a care provider one should provide a suitable environment and build an appropriate
friendly relation with the patient in order to make the service user comfortable to share care
related information with the care provider. The staff members should always seek and show
interest in the service user's feedback relating to the care provided by the healthcare setting.
CONCLUSION
Form the above studies holistic assessment care focusing on patients’ health conditions
and provides the best treatment according to their needs. Integrated pathways provide patient-

focused care with benefits to patients and their families and care pathways continuous
improvement and evaluation in clinical practices. Health care professionals also provide person-
cantered care to older and younger people is all about focusing on the needs of individuals
according to their preferences and clinical decision.
