Mia is a Year 11 VCE VM student planning for a pathway into the community services growth area. She is considering two options after finishing school: (1) starting a traineeship at a local aged care provider while completing a Certificate III, or (2) completing a one-year full-time course at TAFE first, then applying for entry-level work.
Mia has gathered feedback from school and work experience and written the following self-reflection notes:
Mia’s work experience supervisor also commented: “Mia is calm with residents and follows procedures well. She could improve by keeping brief written notes during a shift and by clarifying tasks when instructions are unclear.”
Apply the information in the stimulus to propose two strategies Mia could use over the next month to manage one challenge related to communication and one challenge related to organisation/time management. For each strategy, describe how it would reduce the impact of the challenge in a workplace or training context.
