Haryana BSEH Senior Secondary NSQF Healthcare study plan

Haryana BSEH Senior Secondary NSQF Healthcare · Give each week a clear focus.

8 weeks · About 7 hours per week

Week 1

Basic Patient Care and Activities of Daily Living & Anatomy, Physiology and Medical Terminology

  • List the twelve activities of daily living (ADLs) and state for each one the observation a caregiver must record

  • Demonstrate in writing the correct sequence for bed bathing, oral care and perineal care, naming the hygiene principle behind each step

  • Define 40 core medical terminology roots, prefixes and suffixes and build ten clinical terms from them

  • Label the major body systems on a blank outline and state one ADL that depends on each system

  • Explain how pressure ulcer risk (staging and repositioning schedules) links to anatomy of the skin and subcutaneous tissue

Your checkpoint

A 3-page ADL procedure sheet covering bed bath, oral care, feeding assistance and repositioning, each with numbered steps, safety checks and a terminology glossary of 40 terms

Week 2

Basic Patient Care and Activities of Daily Living & Infection Prevention and Control, Hand Hygiene and PPE

  • Perform and describe the WHO five moments of hand hygiene with the correct duration and technique for each

  • Sequence donning and doffing of gloves, gown, mask and eye protection and identify the contamination point at each step

  • Compare standard, contact, droplet and airborne precautions and match each to two example conditions

  • Describe safe patient handling and transfer techniques (bed to chair, fall recovery) with body mechanics rationale

  • Outline feeding, fluid intake and elimination care for a dependent patient, including aspiration and constipation risk signs

Your checkpoint

A hand-hygiene and PPE competency checklist with 20 observable steps plus a one-page table matching four precaution types to example conditions and required PPE

Week 3

Vital Signs, Observation and Reporting & Anatomy, Physiology and Medical Terminology

  • Measure and record temperature, pulse, respiration, blood pressure and oxygen saturation within accepted normal ranges and stated error margins

  • Interpret ten given vital-sign sets and decide for each whether to report immediately, recheck, or record as normal

  • Define tachycardia, bradycardia, tachypnoea, hypertension, hypotension, fever and hypoxaemia with numeric thresholds

  • Describe the correct technique and common errors for each of the five vital signs

  • Draft an observation chart entry using the correct format, units and abbreviations

Your checkpoint

A completed practice observation chart for five simulated patients, each with a written interpretation and an escalation decision with justification

Week 4

First Aid and Emergency Response & Infection Prevention and Control, Hand Hygiene and PPE

  • Sequence the first-aid steps for choking, bleeding, burns, fracture and fainting, stating the reason for each action

  • Demonstrate (or describe step by step) adult CPR at correct rate, depth and compression-to-breath ratio

  • Explain infection-control precautions specific to emergency care, including glove use, sharps handling and spill management

  • Identify when to call emergency services and what information to hand over

  • Recognise the signs of shock, stroke and hypoglycaemia and state the immediate response for each

Your checkpoint

A first-aid action card set of six emergency scenarios, each with recognition signs, step-by-step response, do-not-do list and escalation point

Week 5

Medical Records, Documentation and Health Information & Communication, Professional Behaviour and Patient Rights

  • Explain the legal and ethical duties around confidentiality, consent and accuracy in patient records

  • Write ten sample entries using objective, factual language and correct abbreviations, avoiding vague or judgemental wording

  • Correct five flawed record entries by identifying the documentation error in each

  • Describe the patient's rights to information, privacy, dignity and refusal of care and how each is upheld in daily practice

  • Draft a short script for explaining a procedure to a patient and for reporting a concern to a supervisor

Your checkpoint

A documentation portfolio of ten corrected and rewritten record entries plus a one-page patient-rights and communication script

Week 6

Workplace Safety, Biohazard Waste and Biomedical Waste Management & Introduction to Healthcare and the Healthcare Team

  • Classify ten waste items into the correct colour-coded biomedical waste category with the handling rule for each

  • Describe segregation at the point of generation, labelling, storage time limits and sharps safety

  • Outline spill management and post-exposure prophylaxis steps after a needlestick injury

  • Map the roles of doctor, nurse, laboratory technician, pharmacist and support staff in a patient's care pathway

  • Identify workplace hazards (ergonomic, chemical, electrical, biological) and one control for each

Your checkpoint

A colour-coded biomedical waste segregation poster plus a 15-item workplace hazard-and-control register

Week 7

Entrepreneurship, Employability and Career Pathways in Healthcare & Practical Skills, Clinical Placement and Portfolio Assessment

  • Map five healthcare career pathways to the qualifications, registration and progression each requires

  • Draft a one-page CV and a 60-second self-introduction targeted at a healthcare assistant or support role

  • Describe three self-employment or small-enterprise options in healthcare support and the basic requirements of each

  • Assemble a portfolio structure with evidence types for each practical skill area

  • Prepare answers to five common interview questions for entry-level healthcare roles

Your checkpoint

A one-page CV, a 60-second introduction script and a portfolio index listing evidence for eight practical skills

Week 8

Introduction to Healthcare and the Healthcare Team & Anatomy, Physiology and Medical Terminology & Infection Prevention and Control, Hand Hygiene and PPE & Basic Patient Care and Activities of Daily Living & Vital Signs, Observation and Reporting & First Aid and Emergency Response & Medical Records, Documentation and Health Information & Communication, Professional Behaviour and Patient Rights & Workplace Safety, Biohazard Waste and Biomedical Waste Management & Entrepreneurship, Employability and Career Pathways in Healthcare & Practical Skills, Clinical Placement and Portfolio Assessment

  • Revise all domains using the earlier deliverables as a question bank and self-test on weak areas

  • Complete two timed full-length mock papers and score each by domain

  • Re-teach the three lowest-scoring domains in a written summary of one page each

  • Rehearse the practical checklist items from weeks 1, 2 and 4 for speed and accuracy

  • Finalise the portfolio and confirm every required evidence item is present

Your checkpoint

Two scored mock papers with a domain-wise error analysis and a final one-page revision sheet of the ten most-missed facts

Milestones

Week 2: Can list all twelve ADLs, name the WHO five moments of hand hygiene and sequence PPE donning and doffing without notes

Week 4: Scores at least 70% on a self-made 30-question test covering domains 2, 3, 4 and 5, and can state the CPR compression-to-breath ratio and rate correctly

Week 6: Correctly classifies 10 of 10 waste items by colour code and writes three objective, factual record entries with no judgemental wording

Week 8: Scores at least 75% on both timed mock papers with no domain below 60%, and the portfolio index is complete
