Medical Care
Our case managers work collaboratively with clients, families and their medical team to coordinate care to facilitate optimal care and outcomes for our clients. We do this through collaboration with the entire team to ensure appointments and tests are being scheduled, obtaining referrals when necessary, obtaining and reviewing medical records and alerting the team of changes in health, care plans and medications. We will work with the insurance companies to obtain approvals when necessary. We develop short and long term goals for each client which optimizes their health and assists them with decreasing hospitalization.
Our Care Managers are certified and licensed by their different professional entities; which include social workers, registered nurses and physical therapists.
