Step 1: Choose from one of the following three scenarios: You are a case manager

Step 1: Choose from one of the following three scenarios: You are a case manager at a homeless shelter. A woman named Annie is staying at the homeless shelter. Annie recently discovered that she is HIV+, to your knowledge she has not followed up with her doctor. Several nights she comes in drunk, expressing that it does not hurt so much when she drinks. She often talks about her continued sexual exploits but does not share details. In the morning when she sobers up, she is tearful and regrets the night before. As you begin to talk with her, she describes a history of sexual abuse when she was younger, leaving home at an early age and her life as a prostitute to escape a violent relationship. She has a 6-year-old son she has not seen in over a year. You are a case manager at a transitional housing program. A man named Bill has two children and needs a place to stay as he was recently evicted. His oldest daughter Claire, who is 15, often takes care of her younger sister Lucy, who is 8. She explains that her dad might leave for days, and they do not know where he goes. Bill has encouraged Claire to drop out of school to take care of Lucy so he can go to work. He also feels that Claire belongs at home doing the cooking and cleaning since that’s “all women are good for anyways.” Bill works odd jobs as a handyman and does not consistently hold a job for more than a few months. His wife left several years ago, but he does not like to talk about it, and the girls do not remember much about her. You are a case manager for a long-term care facility that works with older adults transitioning back home after surgeries or rehabilitation. Juan, a man who recently had heart surgery and has a serious heart condition, has just transitioned home after a two-week stay at your facility. The doctor has given him instructions not to do any strenuous exercise or be out in extreme hot or weather. You stop by on a home visit and discover he is outside in below zero weather, shoveling with just a hat and sweatshirt on. He tells you, “It ain’t cold out, and I ain’t shoveling. I’m 80 years old, and I can do what I want in my own home.” When you enter his home, it is in disarray, there does not appear to be food in the fridge, and his prescription bottles are all empty. His wife died two years ago, and he does not have any children in the area. Step 2: Pretend you are meeting with this client/family for the first time. In your first paragraph, share what exactly you will say to introduce yourself, your role, and what will happen next. Be sure to use quotes to indicate what you will say. Step 3: Develop a plan to work with the client and/or family in your hypothetical profile. The plan should be thoroughly explained in 3-4 pages: Reflect and summarize your client(s) current situation. Identify strategies that will help your client develop intrinsic and extrinsic motivation. Discuss barriers to success, and how to avoid potential roadblocks. Research one local resource for your client(s) and indicate what services they may provide for your client. What emotions might your client be feeling, and what emotions might be triggered in you? How will you process your own feelings? Be sure you are using client-focused language, empathetic responses, and awareness of client functioning levels.
