Topic 5 The Case Management Model Simulation
Read the following case study and consider your approach when treating this client.
Choose a model used in clinical social work and use the first three phases of the casework
process to address the needs of this client and in 250-400 words total, address the prompts
below. Cite your references in the “reference” section at the end.
Jane is a 20-year-old woman who was referred to you by the health department at a local college
where she is taking courses. It came to the attention of the school nurse that she has been
engaging in risky behavior including excessive substance use and unprotected sex. Jane recently
moved in with a friend after breaking up with her boyfriend. Her mother has been in and out of
jail for the past 2 years on drug-related offenses and Jane has no relationship with her father.
Currently, Jane works part-time at a local bar while taking classes but her grades have recently
dropped and she is failing her classes.
