Case study (questions 1–5)

Heath is an experienced disability support worker who has recently moved from interstate. The national conference of a peak disability body is held over three days in his new hometown. He attends the entire conference and learns a lot.

One of the people he supports in his new job is Neville, an indigenous man in his 30’s. Neville is a musician and has had drug and alcohol issues in the past and has liver damage and mild brain damage because of it.

Neville feels disconnected from his cultural heritage. It has been more than ten years since he has seen most of his family members except for his sister Pearl who was responsible for getting him into rehab. He wants to reengage with them; particularly his young nephews who he guesses are about 13 or 14 now. He also wants to start playing music again but not in pubs or clubs.

Pearl is a Christian and thinks that music will lead her brother ‘down the path to hell’ again. Neville also wants to get back control of his money. His sister had an administrator appointed when he was on drugs.

Case study (questions 6–11)

Ron is a young man with a large family. He has had a psychological disability that caused him to self-harm but now he is on medication and positive about life.

At his first meeting with Janet, a supervisor at a disability service that specialises in fitness, he discusses his love for running. Janet asks him how far he could go with it and Ron smiles ‘One day I want to run a marathon’.

Janet later meets again with Ron, his sister and his mother. The meeting is productive and identifies that Ron has diabetes and epilepsy which he manages himself with medication. The impact of these health conditions and the side effects of all his medication, which include dizziness and nausea, are also discussed.

His support needs include transport, and due to the severity of his epilepsy, Ron cannot get a driver’s license. They say that Ron needs to be kept busy and active otherwise he can get depressed.

Janet, Ron and his mum meet again and finalise their ideas and put them in the plan including all the details about Ron’s medications.

Janet investigates joining a gym with Ron, but when he lists all his medication on the fitness assessment form the manager of the gym is reluctant to take Ron on as a member. After another assessment, the gym agrees to offer Ron a restricted membership at half price, excluding use of the weight room, on agreement that a support worker accompanies him.

Getting off a treadmill at the end of his session, Ron strikes up a conversation with a young woman who has finished her work out. They share a coffee in the café afterwards.
