Case Study Of Family's In-Home Services

Furthermore, further support would be provided by means of referral to appropriate service and following up Emma's case regulary to ensure and evaluate that adequate care is being received within the context of the family centred approach. The following subheadings will provide a description of care that may be to provided including referrals, to address those issues cited above (London et al 2011 and Crisp J, 2004).

Initially we had difficulty obtaining his discharge orders as the hospital care manager replied she had forwarded the documentation, but neither I nor Mrs. Bianco had received a copy. Mrs. Bianco made a visit to Mills Creek and met with Mr. Smith at that time she was made aware of an appointment that Mr. Smith attended. Mr. Smith attended a physician appointment on June 28, 2017 with Dr. Leonard, Orthopedic trauma. Mills Creek assisted with the transportation and a mobile x-ray unit was coordinated to obtain x-rays of the femur at the facility as Mr. Smith didn’t bring his slide board to the appointment and couldn’t get onto the radiology table.

In the case we are asked to look at with the two little girls, the office was alerted due to neglect and issues of locking the children away in order to not have contact with them and avoid physical discipline. Again having a large amount of experience with this personally I can speak on several different instances in which the agency needs to be involved. My middle son, again who is not my biological child, has 4, soon to be 6 other half siblings by his biological mother. None of which she has custody of. They have all been removed by CPS. In her case it was for the use of narcotics, in and around the children as well as during pregnancy with 4 of the 6 children she has. She is currently pregnant with number 5 and 6 of her living children though technically they are 9 and 10. She has previously had two singleton abortions and an abortion of a set of twin girls. She has had 4 other boys removed now, ages 5, 3, and a set of twin boys who are 18 months. CPS has already stated that the children she is pregnant with now will be removed as well upon their birth. So in a case such as hers, she was given a year to prove to the courts that she wanted to work towards keeping her twins, they set up visitation for her at the cps office, as well as classes for her to attend, weekly drug screens, parenting classes, and set financial goals she had to meet.

I believe each younger generation is the current generation future so we should teach our children right and watch them grow. We should support our children to the highest standard and let them know to never be afraid to want to know more. We should encourage our children to do their best and try their best at all times. I say this because our children need us they need us to let them know they are safe and that we will not harm them in any way. I want to know why and how some people could ever harm a child. Unfortunately somethings cannot be explained or figured out sometimes we just have to live without knowing. Before, during, and after trauma we are supposed to be there to shelter our child. There needs to be a better protection service

Mr. Mendivil was referred to the STAR CAST on January 1, 2018, by SGPRC due to his noncompliance with treatment and medical appointments. He is diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and is prescribed insulin four times a day. Nursing staff from Care Unlimited Home Health come to the house every day to check his blood sugar, check his blood pressure, and administer insulin as ordered. However, Jesus is reported to often refuse to have blood sugar checked and to have insulin shots. This noncompliant behavior to treatment poses a high risk for complications from poorly controlled diabetes.

****On April 28, the U.S. Justice Department announced that it had filed charges against 25 Miami-area individuals for allegedly taking part in schemes to defraud Medicare of $26 million through the Medicare Part D program.

This essay will look at when serious case reviews came into being and the process of how case reviews are made. It will focus on Daniel Pelka’s serious case review and look at some of the recommendations made and compare these recommendations with other case reviews and inquires to establish why they keep making the same mistakes over and over again and why are we not learning from these mistakes. It will talk a bit about the Victoria Climbe inquiry and some criticism made by Lord Laming. Furthermore this essay will discuss the heavy caseloads social workers have to deal with and how this has had a negative effect on their ability to do their job properly and protect the children as they have to cut a lot of corners. Finally the discussion will move on to the communication between agencies and why agencies have been unable to communicate and what impact that has had on the protection of children.

Due to many foster parents not receiving proper support it is effecting not only the children but the agency as well. Many of the case workers at First Home Care, have so many children on the waiting list but not enough homes to put them in. Studies show children in the foster care that has great parents that care for their well-being 70% of them go on to become successful adults (Children’s Bureau, 2015). According to Staci Fattore (director of First Home Care) out of 100 foster parents 15% of the parents are complaining they do not receive support from the agency. Staci continued to state that FHC have several trainings throughout, the year but foster parents do not show up. She has also stated that children are forced to sleep in lobbies of DHS. Staci has stressed to me although FHC is a therapeutic agency foster parents give them a hard time when it is time to take in a child. They often ask the behavioral issues of the child or does the child have a history of physically attacking their foster parents.

The FS family came to the agency's attention on 03/03/16 (prior to the PUR) for a report of Physical Abuse/Passive Physical Abuse and Unspecified Abuse against the mother.

Over the past few decades there has been an increasing emphasis on self-care and home health care. Due to the Recent changes in health care towards individual’s autonomy and self-control, increasing aging population, the shift from acute to chronic diseases and early discharge policies, many health care services that were previously provided in hospital settings are now being shifted to home (CHCA 2014, CHA 2009). Although the demand for home care has a significant increasing trend (HGO 2015), yet Canadians are not entitled to home care services under the Canadian Health Act (CHA 1985). Home health care services are provided under the name of “extended service”, meaning

The case records and interviews indicated the agency did not make a concerted efforts to assess and address risk and safety fully because private home visits were not conducted on a monthly basis with the children, the Assessment of Family Functioning (AFF) assessment was not updated, and the case plan (the only one for this family was on 9/25/15) was not updated after the initial assessment; however, the agency provided safety related services of ongoing referrals to and monitoring of substance abuse treatment services, provided transportation to services, drug screens (12/17/15, 3/04/16, 4/29/16, 7/21/16, 8/24/16, 11/22/16, and 3/03/17), monitoring of mental health treatment, and informally assessed the live-in

Seniors face many challenges in their day to day life and often need assistance with daily activities. Home Care is a service, which may be covered under Medicare and Medicaid, that provides seniors assistance in meal preparation, transportation, medication reminders, and other daily tasks. A skilled caregiver will come to your home and provide daily assistance to ensure the activities of daily living are met. In 2000, 7.6 million people received some degree of in-home care services (Tender Hearts, 2017). With Home Care being a lower cost solution to facility care, many seniors are choosing to maintain their lifestyle and keep their independence by using in-home care services
