This study presents an empirically based model for case management, defining 15 key functions and their relationships. This framework aims to improve clarity and consistency in long-term care services.

Area of Science:

  • Healthcare Management
  • Social Work Interventions
  • Long-Term Care Services

Background:

  • Case management is crucial for long-term care clients but lacks clear definition and conceptual understanding.
  • Existing approaches to case management present challenges in consistent application and service delivery.
  • The need for a structured, evidence-based model is evident to guide practice and research.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop and present an explicit, empirically based model of case management.
  • To define 15 core functions of case management and their interrelationships.
  • To establish a clear conceptual framework for case management in long-term care.

Main Methods:

  • A series of empirical studies were conducted to develop the model.

Related Experiment Videos

  • The model was iteratively tested and refined based on research findings.
  • The interrelationship of 15 case management functions was analyzed along a sequential dimension.

    • Main Results:

    • An empirically grounded model of case management was successfully developed.
    • The model comprises 15 distinct functions with defined dynamic interrelationships.
    • The sequential dimension of these functions provides a structured approach to practice.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed model offers enhanced definitional consensus and conceptual clarity for case management.
    • This framework can guide the effective provision of services for clients requiring long-term care.
    • Further research and application of the model are recommended to validate its utility in practice.
