2. Utilize expertise and decision-making skills to inform clinical reasoning when dealing with complex and varied presentations, synthesizing information from multiple sources for evidence-based judgments.
3. Exercise professional judgment to manage risks appropriately, especially in complex and unpredictable situations, supporting teams to ensure safety for individuals, families, and carers.
4. Model trust values by demonstrating a person-centered approach to service delivery and development.
5. Continuously evaluate personal practice and participate in multidisciplinary service and team evaluations, demonstrating the impact of advanced clinical practice on service quality and effectiveness.
