Adult Case Management

For those adults who have had emotional, behavioral and psychiatric challenges, and who have had difficulty with past treatment service options, case management can assist in creating a more effective treatment plan. Effective case management is accomplished through thorough assessment of what has and has not worked for the client in the past, the client's current level of functioning and needs, and the client's present desired goals. We value the client's right to self-determination and self-management of their condition and treatment. Through the professional relationship formed between client and case manager, built on trust and mutual respect, the client is able to manage his/her mental health needs.
