Case Management Plan
In this final assignment, you will demonstrate your understanding of direct services to various client populations by creating a Case Management Plan using a fictional scenario. Before getting started, review and select one of the fifteen brief scenarios identified in Chapter 1 (under Exercise 1: Case Management) of the textbook. As part of this assignment, you are to imagine that you are a case manager who has been assigned to provide assistance to the individual depicted in your chosen scenario. Your task will be to prepare a written plan that outlines how you intend to incorporate the critical features of the case management process. You will also need to consider various practical components that are related to the different steps of the case management process.
Your assignment will consist of completing the two sections identified below. Please be sure to address all content areas within each section. In addition to the course text, use a minimum of three scholarly and/or credible full-text resources from the Ashford University Library to support your statements and examples.

Scenario
“An older woman comes to you for help after a particularly abusive incident with her husband. She admits that she is becoming increasingly afraid of him. She has no friends and no job, “because he wouldn’t let me out of the house—or out of his sight.” She has a number of old bruises and lost two teeth in this last inci-dent. She is asking for help and says, “I don’t know. I really fear for my life. It’s just gotten out of hand and I don’t know where it will end.””
