Case Study 2: Javier

Source: www.pixabay.com
You are working at a residential support
facility with a number of younger workers. One of the residents is 7o-year-old Javier, who has been diagnosed for the chronic obstructive
pulmonary disease. He has been a chain smoker since he was 20. His treatment plan includes avoidance of cigarette smoking.
One day, while you were assisting a client for an early morning walk, you saw Javier and two younger workers, Eli and William, smoking
electronic cigarettes (vaping) in the designated smoking area of the facility.
When it was time for you to assist Javier, you told him you saw him smoking vaping
with the young workers. You tell him about the health effects of electronic cigarettes. Javier says that it is better than using a real
cigarette.
You know that if he continues to smoke, his health condition might worsen. In fact,
he has been coughing a lot lately and has been having chest pains despite taking
medications. He does not report this to the individual support workers who are also assisting him, as he fears they will find out that he has
been smoking again.

2. Identify two (2) of Javier's responsibilities that have been compromised in the scenario.
