Introduction to Case Management
Introduction to Case Management
Picture a morning for a modern, middle-class, single-parent family. Between the hours of 5:30 a.m. and 7:30 a.m., the father starts a load of laundry, dresses the toddler, makes breakfast, and packs lunches for three children. All the while, he is checking e-mail on his phone and preparing for a 7:30 a.m. conference call.
Like the running of a single-parent household, case management requires the ability to multitask. Case managers work with multiple cases at one time, each consisting of one or more clients with unique backgrounds and needs. This requires case managers to fulfill a variety of roles, and to choose from an array of case management models to meet the needs of their clients. Do you have the passion and energy to fulfill the responsibilities required of case managers? How might aspects of your personality help you to succeed in a career as complex as this?
