Supervisor/Children's Case Management Case Study
I spoke with Michael Walker, CMHC Program Supervisor/Children’s Case Management at Jackson North CMHC. Mr. Walker shared that central point of intake is the beginning process for clients who are requesting services. Joy Burchel is responsible for these clients when they have completed registration and admission. Clients can receive medical services at any age, however permission must be granted. Clients who live in rage are an advantage because they can easily access the services that were put in place for them. The agency provides out patient services for clients who are severely emotionally disturbed. Jackson North CMHC often refers clients to the main branch because they offer administration and children services such as Families and Communities

    As the CPS worker on the case, in order to determine that the children were safe in the care of the mother I would want to interview the 9 year old. According to Virginia Department of Social Service’s CPS publications, Virginia law does not determine a set age in which a child is able to legally stay home alone. Furthermore, according to Child Welfare Information Gateway (2013), only three states have laws that indicate a specific age that children can stay home alone: Illinois, age 14, Maryland, age 8, and Oregon, age 10. With some many factors to consider, pinpointing a specific appropriate age almost seems impossible. Therefore, determining the safety of the child will depend mostly on the assessment of the CPS worker.…

    Studies have found that case management is beneficial in the health care setting. According to the textbook, case management has drastically improved the outcomes for HIV- infected clients, enhanced the retention of substance abuse users in treatment, and served as a prevention and intervention plan for homeless youth, adults, and families (Chinman, Rosenheck and Lam, 2000). Case management play a critical role in the client’s treatment because each care plan is design based on the individual need of the client.

    Case management is a clinical tool for care and coordination as well as a fiscal cost management too. As a clinical tool, it is a dynamic health care delivery strategy and systematic collaborative approach to providing and coordinating health care services to a defined population (Dunham-Taylor & Pinczuk 2015, p.634)). It is a fiscal management tool, in the sense that it is a participative process used in identifying options and facilitating services for meeting the individual’s health needs Dunham-Taylor & Pinczuk, 2015). Moreover, case management decreases fragmentation and duplication of care , thereby enhancing quality and promoting cost effective clinical outcomes (Dunham –Taylor & Pinczuk, 2015, p 635.). ).
