Unit 2 The importance of communication and partnership working within the sectors covered by Society, Health and Development Level 2 What is this unit about? The purpose of this unit is for learners to develop their skills to work collaboratively in order to communicate information with different people in different situations when working in partnerships. Effective communication skills are fundamental to the work of children and young person’s workforce, health, adult social care and community justice sectors. The use of these skills and the ability to be able to share information within and across teams, all contribute to successful partnership working. This unit covers communication issues which learners may themselves have experienced, such as, urgently seeking information only to find that they are unable to understand what they have been given because it is full of jargon and technical terms, or struggling to explain what they need or want, finding it hard to choose words to make the person they are speaking to understand. They will learn that this could be how a person seeking support or information from a worker in one of the four sectors of children and young people’s workforce, health, community justice and adult social care could feel if the worker they were dealing with was not able to communicate effectively with them. Learners will also consider why and how organisations in the four sectors share information and work together to support and help individuals and communities. They will look at how the organisations in the partnership decide what information needs to be shared and when and how it is shared. Learners will also look into how information about individuals should be recorded and might be passed between different organisations or within teams, why this is necessary and what may happen to that
