The client case hypotheticals

The client case hypotheticals will be client cases that will offer the students information about a potential client. This will allow for the student to utilize critical thinking skills where they can evaluate how they would handle the case as a future human service provider. This paper should be completed on a word document, title page, 1-2 pages, 12 font, times new roman- submitted to canvas.

Instructions: In the following situation, develop a tentative plan for the client where you list the various services you believe each person needs…i.e. individual counseling, group counseling, family counseling, support groups, etc. Suggest other services the person might need later once the case is stabilized. Think about what other course of action you would take as a case manager.

WEEK # 5 Client Case Hypothetical:

A man in his 60s comes in on the recommendation of his doctor. He had a back injury some years ago and was placed on codeine at the time. After the back injury, other things went wrong. The plant where he worked closed down and his mother died. He found himself feeling very alone and uncertain about finances. “It was then that I started to drink too,” he tells you. When you ask what he means by “too,” he says his doctor believes he has become addicted to codeine. “I don’t know,” he says. “I’ve gotten to the point that I can’t get through a day without a lot of help.”
