Case Manager Resource File Project Case Management Project Dr. Susan Stuntzner October16, 2018 Case Manager Resource File - #1 ◼ ◼ ◼ In this assignment you are to search the local, state, regional, international resources and websites related to supports, organizations, businesses, technology, AT devices, and Internet resources for persons with disabilities in various domains as outlined in this syllabus and in the next slide. Because people will often have questions about where to go for various resources you are to become more knowledgeable and informed regarding what those resources are. Therefore, you are to construct a supply of resources that may be useful for people living with the specific disability chosen by the student. Students have a choice about what disability group they will focus on as I want this project to be personally meaningful and in-line with one group type of disability that is really of interest to you as a future RC professional. Case Manager Resource File - #2 ◼ The categories for which you are to locate 30 relevant and applicable resources along with descriptions /summary of what the organization, business, or resource has to offer the person with a disability. The resources you find need to fit into at least 6 different categories. A. Disability Legislation and the ADA B. Personal Care/Personal Independence & Functioning C. Education D. Work/Employment E. Recreation and Leisure F. Adjustment to Disability G. Family Coping Resources H. Mobility Impairments G. Communication and Sensory Impairments I. Switches J. Computer Access and Internet Use K. Prosthetics and Orthotics L. Clinical Treatment and Psychotherapy M. Evaluation and Job Placement Help N. Housing/Community Resource Support for Independence 0. Assistive Technology Case Manager Resource File - #3 ◼ ◼ ◼ Your completed project will consist of 30 resources with descriptions. If you are using a website, please give the spelled out name/title of the website along with the link and a 1/3 to ½ single spaced typed narration of what is located on that website. Assignment is due November 20th at 5 pm. Resources may be local, state, regional, national or international but they need to be directly related to the disability type (i.e., TBI, SCI, Bi Polar, Schizophrenia, Dyslexia etc.). If it is not an organization that specifically serves this population and instead works with a variety of people with disabilities, please explain in your narrative how this organization/support can be useful for people with this specific disability type. The goal is to have a number of resources with information you can draw upon and access when you graduate or go out into your practicums and internships. An essential component of being an effective rehabilitation counseling professional is to know what resources and supports are out there even if they are beyond what you do in your day-to-day work. Sometimes we may find ourselves in a position to help guide and educate people about resources they can access to help improve their overall quality of life. Case Manager Resource File - #4 ◼ ◼ Grade will be assessed on the following: – A. Title Page, Table of Contents with Page Numbers and Outline of Domain Categories, and Name of Each Resource Found on Given Pages: (10 pts) – In other words, be sure the Table of Contents has the six chosen categories with page numbers and the specific page on which the reader can find the organizations, businesses, websites (with their descriptions – B. Grammar, Writing Style, Legibility: (10 pts) – C. Completion of Assignment Requirements (At least 30 resources spread among 6 or more categories and 1/3 to 1 /2 page summary of the content/resources available from this resource) (60 pts – 2 pts each resource and explanation) Completion of the assignment does not guarantee full points. Assignment must fulfill all of the above expectations and be well written. CASE MANAGEMENT RESOURCE FILE Students are to pick a disability group and assemble a resource binder to better serve the chosen disability group (i.e. spinal cord injury, TBI, developmental disability). Resource binder must be a comprehensive source of information for individuals with disabilities. Resources may be found in the community, online, or include national resources. Your task is to determine what the specific needs might be for an individual with this specific disability type. You are to become a specialist of knowledge for the given disability type. For example, if you choose spinal cord injury, try to envision what areas are important for an individual to become a well-integrated member of society. What are his or her needs: interpersonally, recreationally, medically, psychologically, and relationally (i.e., family, sexually), vocationally (i.e. accommodations)? In other words, if you were to serve individuals with a given disability try to envision you are the ‘go to professional’ within the community; therefore, it’s your job to scout resources and learn as much as you can about availability to assist you with case management and provision of services and resources to this specific group of individuals with your targeted disability population. Please note the resources must be specifically related to the disability type chosen and to be of use to help them overcome barriers, and successfully integrate and be a part of the community. Ideally, it would be best to have a crate full of resources, but since this is an online course, I am going to ask for a booklet/manual of at least 30 relevant and applicable resources along with descriptions. Sample areas and categories may include some of the following: A. Disability Legislation and the ADA B. Personal Care/Personal Independence & Functioning C. Education D. Work/Employment E. Recreation and Leisure F. Adjustment to Disability G. Family Coping Resources H. Mobility Impairments I. Communication & Sensory Impairments J. Prosthetics & Orthotics K. Clinical Treatment & Psychotherapy L. Assistive Technology Thus, students are to choose a specific type of disability, consider the ways this disability affects their lives, reflect on the numerous parts of a person’s life (i.e., personal, social, recreational, vocational, medical, spiritual, etc.), and research local, state, regional, or national resources, agencies, or products that would help someone with this disability type. Students may also want to consider assistive technology (AT) needs and devices. As a part of this assignment, students are to divide resources into life domains or categories as listed above, give the name of resource, contact information [i.e., address, phone, website], and a summary of what this resource does or can be used for by the person with disability. Each written resource summary should be 1/3 to 1/2 page long, single-spaced. Students’ grade will be based on the following: A. Title Page, Table of Contents with Page Numbers and Outline of Categories (10 pts) C. Grammar, Writing Style, Legibility: (10 pts) D. Completion of Assignment Requirements (At least 30 resources spread among 6 or more categories and 1/3 to 1 /2 page summary of the content/resources available from this resource) (60 pts – 2 pts each resource and explanation) Case management resource file is worth a total of 80 points and is due on Blackboard, November 20th at 5 pm.
