Case Manager
I’ve been thinking a lot about being a case manager and how to describe what it is like. Then it came to me. If you ever watched the movie Hocus Pocus. In the beginning of the movie the witches tie the little girl to a chair and slowly suck the life out of her; that’s what it is like to be a case manager. I have 16 clients and they suck the life out of me. I completely manage their life in almost every aspect. Just stop and think what it would be like to manage someone’s life. You keep all doctor’s appointments, remind them to take meds, go grocery shopping or if they need any personal items, resolve any health problems physical or mental, help with budgeting money, set up all other appointments, go to all appointments, find housing, making sure housing is adequate, help fill out applications, help teach daily living skills, help with any legal trouble, and so much more I can’t think of. Plus, throw SPMI (severe and persistent mental illness) on top of that; the life will get sucked right out of you. Twas…life
