What module is this?

Also you have said using attached pro form...which form?
I am a little confused to the context of the question .... there must be some more information that you have missed out. As you have written it I have no idea what I am making an action plan for.....desired outcomes of what? ....strategies to find a solution to what??

Please post the complete question if you want to get help, without all the information it makes it a tad difficult to assist you.

Same questions

What assignment book??
Either I am going bonkers or this question totally makes no sense

Hi Sue,

Just trying to figure out your question too.

devise an action plan for trish we need to include

Who is trish? Is there a scenario on a girl called trish? I think thats why these questions are a little confusing because you will probably need to include the scenario so we can get a better understanding. Also a pro forma action plan means this document is done for formality.

Anyways, let us know the scenario.

Cheers ,
L.A

Hi guys,
Sorry for not including the scenario. Here it is:
An analysis of accidents and near misses over the last 12 months involving both children and staff has revealed a disturbing patter of possible complacency. The analysis shows:
- Most accidents involving children occurred during outdoor late afternoon play.
- Most injuries and near misses involving staff occurred when setting up and packing away equipment (outdoors slightly more than indoors)
- Injuries to staff under 25 occured at twice the rate as injuries to staff over 25
- Falls were the most common form of injury to children
- The most common injurt to staff was trapping fingers, dropping objects on feet and back strain

The Director, Trish must decide how to address this issue in order to reduce accidents by 50%. Trish knows that the most effective strategy is to engage the team in devloping an action plan.

Make references to QIAS and the Early Learning Framework.
Thanks
Hopefully this make sense

the answer to this is:
Factors in the physical environment that may contribute to accidents and injuries may include:
❖ inadequate fencing and gates that aren’t self-closing ]
❖ climbing equipment that is damaged – sharp edges, splinters
❖ uneven pathways or uneven paved areas
❖ lack of adequate soft-fall areas
❖ poorly set out equipment
❖ overcrowding in defined spaces such as the sandpit and climbing equipment
❖ poorly planned bicycle paths
❖ poorly maintained grounds
❖ poorly maintained equipment.
please let me know if this was helpful and lorina can u check my answer and let me know if its right?

The answer to a. Desired Outcomes is

Reduce the overall rate of staff and children’s accidents and near misses by 50%.

Increase children’s awareness of safe behaviour.

Increase staff awareness of WHS.
