County Case Management provides services for Individuals who are :
- Chronically Mentally Ill
- Developmentally Disabled
- Mentally Retarded
Individual case management
services were developed to help you and your family make choices about
the kind of services you want, to encourage you to participate in
deciding who will provide those services, and to allow you to take
responsibility for setting goals and working toward meeting them.
If you are accepted for case
management services, you will be assigned a case manager. Your
case manager will have both education and experience in working with
people who are Chronically Mentally Ill, have a Developmental Disability
and/or are Mentally Retarded. Your case manager will work with you
and your family and together you will:
- Discuss what you want in
services and living arrangements, and how a case manager could
assist you in obtaining those services.
- Decide what agencies or
individuals might best provide the services you want.
- Form an interdisciplinary
team in which you will actively participate with your case manager,
service providers, family members and other people you choose to be
there. The team will meet together and all of you will decide
how everyone can work toward goals you've established. These
goals and responsibilities are written in a document called the
Individual Comprehensive Plan (ICP) which all team members sign.
