Essay Guidelines
This essay should showcase your specialised area of knowledge and understanding of how care is co-ordinated for complex health needs in a Child, Adult or Mental Health case. You should select a patient which represents this group from scenarios created within the module. Explain why their health needs require long term health interventions/inputs to demonstrate your understanding of the importance of partnership, collaboration and interagency working. You are required to analyse the relevant policy and legislation in relation to care co-ordination and critically evaluate the extent to which their care is co-ordinated. Your work should have a strong evidence base, include references from a wide range of sources, recognising the complexities and alternative approaches in the literature.
Please note: this work is about care co-ordination not the condition.
