Unit of Competency MSTMF4011 - Produce corrective orthoses
Description
Employability Skills
Learning Outcomes and Application This unit of competency describes the skills and knowledge required to produce corrective orthoses. Corrective orthoses are made to assist with problems that require corrective posting or support of the foot or ankle, for example, a drop foot splint, inner shoe to stabilise foot or ankle complex and exclude movement, or to correct excessive rear foot pronation.Work is generally conducted in a small business situation.The unit may apply to a sole practitioner or someone working directly with medical grade footwear practitioners or with a health care team.No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this unit at the time of publication.
Duration and Setting X weeks, nominally xx hours, delivered in a classroom/online/blended learning setting.

Assessment Tasks

Copy and paste from the following data to produce each assessment task. Write these in plain English and spell out how, when and where the task is to be carried out, under what conditions, and what resources are needed. Include guidelines about how well the candidate has to perform a task for it to be judged satisfactory.
Copy and paste from the following performance criteria to create an observation checklist for each task. When you have finished writing your assessment tool every one of these must have been addressed, preferably several times in a variety of contexts. To ensure this occurs download the assessment matrix for the unit; enter each assessment task as a column header and place check marks against each performance criteria that task addresses.
