Topic: Case Study

Directions: “Putting together an Empowerment Plan involves some personal challenges for the Case Manager. S/he will have to be able to overcome her or his own tendencies to tell the person [client]  what she or he should do, rescue the person [client], or make decisions for her or him” (Spindel, 2013, p. 81). An Empowerment Plan relies on a case manager asking the person s/he are supporting meaningful questions and purposefully exploring possibilities that will help her or him make informed decisions (Spindel, 2013). For this assignment:
  1. Choose 1 from the 3 movies: The Glass Castle; The Fundamentals of Caring; or Silver Linings Playbook. These movies can be found in the Calgary Public Library or on Netflix. 
  2. Watch the movie.
  3. Pick a character in the movie to use for the purpose of your assignment.
  4. Comprehensive assessments are built on the foundation of relationships (Gursansky et al., 2012, p. 69). For further clarification on what a comprehensive assessment is, read chapter 3 in The Practice of Case Management by Gursansky et al. (2012).
Create a comprehensive assessment for your case study by asking your partner the following questions:
  • Who is this person?
  • What has he/she done in his/her life?
  • What brought him/her to this situation and service intervention?
  • What are the opportunities for these goals and aspirations to be achieved?
  • What are the barriers to these goals and aspirations?
  • Who are the critical people and/or social networks in this person’s life?
  • Who are the professionals involved in this person’s situation?” (Gursansky et al., 2012, p. 67)
  • From the answers to the above questions, identify the individual's strengths and needs
Consider the following components (Spindel, 2013, p.82-85): 
  • Strengths – identify the individual’s strengths and any successes you observed during the movie
  • Needs / challenges 
Reflect on how you felt watching the movie? How has the content from the Case Management course shaped your perception of the movie and how you viewed the character’s situation?
