Identify what is meant by the term ‘low vision’ or ‘visual impairment’ and discuss how these definitions or models apply to the patient
Description
Aims of the essay:
• Identify what is meant by the term ‘low vision’ or ‘visual impairment’ and
discuss how these definitions or models apply to the patient in the associated
case study. (PROVIDED IN ADDITIONAL MATERIALS UNDER CASE STUDY PATIENT HAS WET
MACULAR DEGENERATION)
• Critically reflect upon how these terms or models are underpinned by, or
contrast, psycho-social models and frameworks relating to impairment and the
lived experience of a person.
• Using an appropriate evidence base, discuss the pathophysiology presenting in
the associated patient, and evaluate its impact on the patient’s visual function.
• Evaluate what the evidence base suggests about the long-term prognosis for
the patient.
• Utilising the evidence identified, link the patient’s reported issues with their
daily lived experience, to the pathophysiology and its impact on visual function.
Introduction (Max 10% of wordcount). This should not be ‘descriptive’, and should be
used to orientate and grab the reader.
Main Body Discussion: This should address the aims listed above, and address the
learning outcomes stated.
Conclusion (Max 10% of wordcount). State the conclusions that have been drawn
from the evidence presented – do not make this just descriptive.
A Critical Reflection of your involvement in the management

explaining the theory of the cycle you have used.
Include your strengths and weaknesses, and evaluate your
own practice and that of others, using multiple frames of
reference. Consider actions and alternative future actions
Appendices must include a copy of the associated case record, or the submission will
be marked as incomplete. Students may also include full details of their completed
reflective cycles, and /or a full action plan following their reflection. N.B., with the
exception of the case record, no marks are awarded to content within the appendices:
elements are included to support the main body of the piece.
References are required for all statements. Forming a true academic discussion, with
the most contemporary, reliable and credible, relevant sources, is the key to
achieving distinction grades. If a source discusses, let us says, an approach to patientcentred care, are there other
sources that support their thinking/research? Or, are
there other researchers that disagree? That is an academic discussion.

Analyse the impact of the Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act 2007 (CMCH 2007) on the criminal law for corporate manslaughter.
Description
Question: Analyse the impact of the Corporate Manslaughter and Corporate Homicide Act 2007 (CMCH 2007)
on the criminal law for corporate manslaughter. Evaluate whether the CMCH 2007 has been successful in
addressing the criticisms of the old, common law approach to corporate manslaughter.
This essay question requires you to:
- throughout the entire essay, develop a reasoned and evidence-based argument about whether you think the
CMCH 2007 has been successful in addressing the criticisms of the old law, - concisely explain the criminal offence of corporate manslaughter in the CMCH 2007,
- analyse the impact of the CMCH 2007 on the law, including with respect to the criticisms of the previous
common law offence, - evaluate the extent to which the CMCH 2007 has addressed the criticisms of the old law using evidence from
academic commentary and case law, found through your own research.
Essay guidance:
You should aim to define the key legal terms relevant to the question, explain the relevant law, analyse the legal
position and evaluate the merits of the law. From your introduction and throughout your essay, you should make
an argument that answers the question set. You should critically evaluate the extent to which the new corporate
manslaughter offence addresses the criticisms of the previous law. Your argument should focus on whether, in
light of your evaluation, the law is successful in terms of addressing the criticisms identified, drawing on
evidence to explain why.

Summarize the strengths and limitations of this approach. Which aspects of the model would be most helpful, and why (or why not)?
Description
The theories/modalities you can select from for Paper 4 are:
Family therapy
In addition to an introduction and conclusion, the outline you should use for the discussion papers is as follows:
- Theory/Modality: Identify and describe the theory/modality you have selected, including historical figures in
its development and key elements of the theory. Explain it as if the reader has never heard of this before. - Laura’s Intervention: Describe the specific steps of how a social work practitioner would use this model to
intervene with Laura. Be as detailed as possible about which of Laura’s concerns would be addressed and what
the social worker would do to apply this theory/modality to help Laura. - Analysis: Summarize the strengths and limitations of this approach. Which aspects of the model would be
most helpful, and why (or why not)? Use the literature to support your statements regarding the strengths and
weaknesses of the theory.
Each of these four papers should:
Be 4-5 pages double spaced, not including the title page and References
Follow APA 7 format, including page numbers, title page, section headings, etc.
Cite class readings and/or other empirical sources, both in-text and in References.
Explain how business owners can benefit from having a thorough understanding of the criminal acts you described, as well as any negative impacts that could ensue from a lack of understanding (or refusal to follow the law).
Description
Define each criminal act, including whether it is a felony or misdemeanor, and the actions involved in
committing the act.
Provide at least one specific example of each type of criminal act.
Describe the possible consequences for the commission of each crime.
Explain how business owners can benefit from having a thorough understanding of the criminal acts you
described, as well as any negative impacts that could ensue from a lack of understanding (or refusal to follow the
law).
Include references to a minimum of two scholarly sources to support your response.
When they are young, most people begin to learn the very basics of right and wrong, and that understanding
eventually progresses into knowledge of acts that are legal and illegal. Many people, however, may be unaware
that there are many laws governing organizations and how they are able to conduct business. Just as an
individual can be prosecuted for illegal acts such as theft or fraud, so can companies. If you were to start your
own company, would your current understanding of legal and illegal business practices sufficiently help your
organization avoid risk? How important do you think it would be to bring in a legal advisor to ensure that you
were following all local, state, and federal regulations (if applicable) for your business? What are the advantages
of knowing the law as a business owner?
In this Discussion, you will identify two business-related crimes—a felony and a misdemeanor. You will provide
examples and describe consequences of each. Additionally, you will consider how an understanding of criminal
law can be an asset for business owners.
