What is Case Management?
ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ Cares is ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½’s case management office. Housed in the Dean of Students office, the primary goal of ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ Cares is to provide support for students experiencing non-academic barriers to success during their time at ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½. While ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ Cares is NOT a decision-making office, students partner with case managers to make informed decisions.
How does a student get connected to a case manager?
Most students are referred to ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ Cares during a crisis*. A crisis is relative to the individual. The process for care is rooted in a crisis management model: preparing for, preventing, coping with, and recovering from a crisis. For every student’s case, a needs assessment is completed with the goal of linking a student to a campus and/or community resource.
*Examples of a crisis: unexpected illness and or hospitalization; death in the family.
