, INTRODUCTION TO THE PRACTICAL EVIDENCE PORTFOLIO


Introduction to the Practical Evidence Portfolio
This Practical Evidence Portfolio is a tool for you to use to record evidence of how you
have improved your skills and developed your health and social care practice for Unit
6: Work Experience in Health and Social Care.
The Practical Evidence Portfolio is designed to help you show that you have
demonstrated good practice. It will help you focus your attention on how important
reflective practice and continuing professional development is to your health and
social care qualification.
This document contains all the information and forms that you need to be able to
evidence your progress throughout your period of study.

The importance of the Practical Evidence Portfolio
By undertaking work placement(s), you will develop effective and informed practice.
The Practical Evidence Portfolio should reflect your experiences and the activities
carried out during your hours of work placement. You should include examples that
demonstrate how you have engaged in continuous professional development and
reflective practice, developing your skills, practical competence and subject
knowledge.
Teachers and work placement supervisors should be fully satisfied that you have met
the relevant assessment criteria before approving this in the progress reports.
To achieve Unit 6: Work Experience in Health and Social Care, your teachers will support
you in collecting the appropriate evidence for your Practical Evidence Portfolio.

,INTRODUCTION TO THE PRACTICAL EVIDENCE PORTFOLIO


If you are employed by a health or social care organisation, you may use your paid
employment hours to contribute towards work experience hours, with the agreement
of the employer and on the understanding that your teacher and work place
supervisor must record each visit on Forms HSC AG 6 and 7 – Teacher observational
visit report/work placement supervisor under the appropriate conditions.

Health and safety of the learner while on placement
When going on placement, you will need to make sure that you are aware of your
own, and the placement’s, responsibilities for managing health and safety at work. It is
important that you can identify risks and hazards to you and others, and know how to
minimise them.

Ownership and content of the Practical Evidence Portfolio
The Practical Evidence Portfolio will include a contribution from the different people
involved in your training, but ownership is firmly in your hands. The Practical Evidence
Portfolio is designed to be completed over the whole period of your work experience.

Demonstrating your skills
This Practical Evidence Portfolio is a record of how you have developed your skills in a
health and social care context.
The following forms have been designed to support your work experience and must
be used for each work placement you attend:
 HSC AG 3
 HSC AG 5.
The following forms have been designed to support your work placement; you may
choose to use them, or an alternative provided by your teacher or work placement
supervisor:
 HSC AG 1
 HSC AG 2
 HSC AG 4
 HSC AG 6
 HSC AG 7.

How to complete the forms
Form HSC AG 1 – Record of Hours in Placement
This form is designed to help you keep track of your attendance on placement. It will
show whether you have been punctual and disciplined in your approach to
timekeeping. You must keep a record of all of the hours you attend work placement
and your work placement supervisor must confirm your attendance by signing for the
hours you are claiming. Your teacher will refer to this when completing the final sign
off for your Practical Evidence Portfolio.

Extended Diploma in Health and Social Care – Issue 3 – November 2019 © Pearson Education Limited 2019

, INTRODUCTION TO THE PRACTICAL EVIDENCE PORTFOLIO

Form HSC AG 2 – Work Experience Induction Form
When you start your work placement, you must have an interview with your work
placement supervisor, so that you understand what will be expected of you during
your work placement. You should keep a record of this interview, confirming that you
are aware of your hours of attendance and responsibilities. You must also read
certain procedures used by your setting, including procedures for health and safety,
security, safeguarding, and emergency procedures; this form can be used to confirm
that you understand these procedures.
Form HSC AG 3 – Work Experience Plan
You are required to produce a work experience plan as part of your assessment for
Unit 6: Work Experience in Health and Social Care. You must use this form to record
what will be expected of you on the placement, including your responsibilities and
limits of your responsibilities. You must reflect on your current strengths, and record
your professional development goals while on the placement, and how you are going
to meet them.
Form HSC AG 4 – Learner Self-assessment of Work Skills
This form is designed to help you to identify areas you need to concentrate on during
your work experience placement to support your development and to gather
evidence for assessment in other units.
To help you, the form has been split into sections, each listing skills that employers
have suggested as necessary for working in health or social care settings. Each section
has been mapped to the relevant section of the Care Certificate Standards and the
National Occupational Standards.
If you are undertaking more than one placement with different settings, you may have
the opportunity to address the same skills when working with different age groups,
for example interacting with children or older people at snack/mealtimes. However,
you are not required to address each skill for every age group.
Where you record evidence of your skills development, your work placement
supervisor and/or your teacher should sign and date the form to confirm your
achievement.
When you complete the self-assessment at the end of your placement(s), try to focus
on skill areas that need further development and how you might plan to address
them.
Form HSC AG 5 Part 1 – Learner Refl ections on Work Tasks
You must complete this form as part of your assessment for Unit 6: Work Experience in
Health and Social Care. You will record the feedback you have received and your own
reflections on the work tasks you have carried out. You must also consider what you
could do to improve your performance.
You will be required to demonstrate three work tasks for your assessment and
complete one form for each task. The observation records of your demonstrations
must be kept with these forms.

,INTRODUCTION TO THE PRACTICAL EVIDENCE PORTFOLIO


Form HSC AG 5 Part 2 – Learner Professional Development Plan
You must complete this form as part of your assessment for Unit 6: Work Experience in
Health and Social Care. You must reflect on your development during your placement,
including strengths and the areas that you wish to develop in the future. You must
decide on future professional development goals and how you are going to achieve
them. This will help you to make decisions about your progress in the sector.
Form HSC AG 6 – Teacher observational visit report
Your course teacher will be visiting you at least once during work placement to assess
your practice throughout the programme of study. One form should be completed for
each placement that you undertake. Your teacher will be asked to complete records
about your professional practice skills development. This means that you need to take
an active part in gaining the evidence you require.
Form HSC AG 7 – Work placement supervisor interim/final observation report
While you are on placement, it is essential that you ask your work placement
supervisor to assess your professional practice skills. It is best practice that the work
placement supervisor should record and date any interim feedback on Form HSC AG 7.
This feedback should be recorded with the term ‘interim’ circled on the document.
For you to gain sufficient evidence to be able to reflect and complete your
placement(s), the work placement supervisor must provide you with final feedback.
The Work Placement Supervisor’s final feedback should be recorded on a separate
Form HSC AG 7 with the term ‘final’ circled on the document.
At this level of study, you are expected to be able to identify suitable opportunities for
your work placement supervisor to observe your actions. Work placement supervisors
may not always recognise the kind of evidence you require. You should inform them
of suitable opportunities. Therefore, building an effective relationship with your work
placement supervisor is an important element of your work experience.
You should check your progress against your evidence and discuss this with your work
placement supervisor, reflecting on any suggested areas for development that are
discussed.
You will note that the criteria for both the work placement supervisor and teacher are
the same. It is important that the signatory is clearly identified on both Form HSC 6
and Form HSC 7.
Completing the Practical Evidence Portfolio
A final declaration of your achievement will be provided by your school or college
teacher on successful completion of the Practical Evidence Portfolio.
You should include with your Practical Evidence Portfolio all other evidence of
competence, including witness testimonies and detailed observation records. You
need to make sure that your records of observation are detailed and demonstrate a
good command of the English language.

Extended Diploma in Health and Social Care – Issue 3 – November 2019 © Pearson Education Limited 2019

, INTRODUCTION TO THE PRACTICAL EVIDENCE PORTFOLIO


Taking pleasure and pride in developing a high-quality Practical Evidence Portfolio will
help you to complete this element of the qualification successfully. Detailed evidence
that explores the ways you have developed skills and reflected on your practice using
different sources and tools will help you achieve this.
There are several ways of recording the demonstration of your skills in a health and
social care context. The most commonly used ways are asking your:
 Work placement supervisor to observe you carrying out a task or activity; they
must then complete, sign and date a report detailing what they have seen
and heard
 Work placement supervisor for a signed witness statement relating to a piece of
work that you have carried out in their workplace; they may not have seen you
complete the task but have seen the end result
 course teacher to observe you completing an activity or task and then obtaining a
signed and dated report detailing the results.

Maintaining confidentiality
To maintain service users’ confidentiality, you must not refer to the names of
individual service users in your Practical Evidence Portfolio.
Photographs must not be submitted in your portfolio, so you must not take
photographs of service users. You can, however, include photographs of displays,
products, lunch/dinner time, activities etc. that you have been involved with.

The Care Certificate Standards
The Care Certificate is a set of standards that health and social care workers must
adhere to in their working life. It has been designed for the non-regulated workforce,
which includes roles such as Care Assistant, Healthcare Support Worker, Maternity
Support Worker, Therapy Assistant, Activities Worker, Day-care Assistant or
Domiciliary Care Worker. It is designed to ensure that workers in non-regulated roles
have the same introductory skills, knowledge and behaviours to provide
compassionate, safe and high-quality care and support.
The Care Certificate:
 applies across health and social care
 links to competences (National Occupational Standards) and units in qualifications
 covers what is required to be caring
 gives workers the fundamental skills they need to provide quality care
 gives workers a basis from which they can further develop their knowledge and
skills as their career progresses.
Links to the relevant part of the Care Certificate Standards are highlighted throughout
this Practical Evidence Portfolio, in particular Form HSC 4 is mapped to the Care
Certificate Standards to show clearly where each standard could be met.
