The following is a guide to assist you in writing your essay.
Selection of your Case Study Students are required to select the scenario representative of their own health professional discipline and compare and contrast their duties in the chosen scenario to the duties of different health care professionals. If students are studying in a course that is a dual degree, they can focus on their two professional specialties for this assessment task.
As there are many disciplines undertaking the unit, you should pick the scenario that will represent a moral dilemma in your discipline. The scenarios are mainly generic and if you look at them holistically, they will demonstrate a multidisciplinary perspective. Think about how you would be involved in any given scenario.
