Some case managers work with patients of all ages and with a wide array of conditions. Others specialize
in an area such as substance abuse, geriatrics or children’s services. Case managers meet with their clients
regularly, often weekly, to monitor their well-being, address their questions or concerns, and connect them
with resources. For example, they may help a client recovering from substance abuse find temporary housing
until he can find a job and get back on his feet. They may also recommend support groups for clients or
family members to help them cope with their behavioral health issues. In addition, they keep detailed notes
of their visits with clients, noting their long-term progress.
