Who Is A Candidate For Case Management?
Candidates for case management typically face complex or chronic conditions, such as substance use disorders or severe mental illnesses like schizophrenia. These individuals often require long-term care and benefit from structured support to enhance their quality of life. Case management provides comprehensive, coordinated care tailored to their unique circumstances, ensuring they receive the necessary resources and assistance to navigate their health challenges effectively.
What Can I Expect My Case Manager To Do?
Case management is usually recommended in situations where an individual is dealing with addiction (substance use disorder) or a more complex illness (like schizophrenia) that may require long-term care. After your consultation at one of our offices, your case manager will put together a customized treatment plan that takes into account your mental struggles and life situation. They will help you manage your medications and may assist in connecting you to community resources for healthcare or housing. Potential care management treatment programs at Fresh Start Behavioral Health, Inc. include:
- Organizing regular therapy appointments
- Managing prescribed medications to ensure they're administered correctly and safely
- Organizing admission to a sober house to provide a more stable environment for addiction treatment
- Preparing patients for reintegration into society
Every patient's needs are different, which is why we start with an initial psychiatric evaluation at our Dayton, Cincinnati, or Milford, OH office.
