Clinical Case Management
Published in Theory and Practice of Clinical Social Work (2nd Edition), J. Brandell, Ed., Columbia University Press, 2010. 2200 Clinical case Management Joel Kanter Over the past 30 years, case Management has become a ubiquitous intervention approach throughout the mental health and health care fields. Often poorly defined, case Management , perhaps a linguistic repackaging of social work or social casework, encompasses a wide range of environmental interventions with persons in need, including persons suffering from severe mental illness, substance abuse, and chronic medical conditions such as HIV, tuberculosis, and diabetes. In health care, the term case Management can refer to cost-conscious telephone interventions to monitor medical services or to discharge planning from an inpatient facility. In mental health, case Management may refer to helping a client obtain disability benefits or apply for housing assistance. Or it may refer to a friendly paraprofessional visitor who assists with homemaking and transportation.
