Which aspect is not typically part of case management?

1. Monitoring client progress

2. Directing clients to appropriate resources

3. Providing individualized support and assistance

4. Simply providing information about services

The correct answer is: Simply providing information about services

The aspect of simply providing information about services is not typically part of case management because case management involves a more comprehensive approach to client support. Case management is focused on coordinating care and ensuring that individuals receive tailored services to meet their unique needs. This includes monitoring client progress to track outcomes, directing clients towards the appropriate resources, and providing individualized support that addresses specific challenges they might face. In contrast, merely providing information about available services does not involve the active engagement or personalized attention that case management entails. Case management requires ongoing assessment, planning, and follow-up, which goes beyond just sharing information. Instead, it involves building a relationship with clients and advocating for their needs in a holistic manner, ensuring they have access to the necessary support systems.
