However, Kanter defines case management in relation to two different settings. Foremost, he defines case management from the perspective of social work where in the ordinary social work precepts it involves an array of environmental interventions. In this scenario, it entails the provision of support services to people with chronic medical conditions, substance abuse and mental illnesses. The second setting is the healthcare where case management entails the monitoring of medical services. On the other hand, case management in mental health entails providing support to people with social or health needs including housing and mental disorders. According to Kanter, it is worth understanding the key aspects of case management including human resource issues and intervention models in order to respond appropriately to the needs of different clients. In light of Kanter’s article, this paper will provide a critical analysis of the key aspects in clinical case management.
