Case management at SCS is a collaborative, inclusive and individualized process. We work towards goal setting, planning, advocating and exploring available community resources to support the achievement of personal outcomes. This service is offered in Ottawa.

A case manager will help you:

‣ Focus on goals that are important to you

‣ Include the people who are important to you

‣ Identify your strengths and interests

‣ Build and strengthen your relationships and support network

‣ Plan for life transitions

‣ Coordinate meetings with other service providers by:

◦ Assisting you with preparing for the meeting
◦ Supporting you at the meeting
◦ Understanding roles and responsibilities

‣ Support problem solving and group facilitation

‣ Coordinate community resources, such as:

◦ Skills development or education programs
◦ Social and recreational programs
◦ Child care programs
◦ Support workers or respite programs
◦ Volunteering or work opportunities
◦ Support groups
◦ Financial programs
◦ Housing services
◦ Transportation services
◦ Specialized services, such as counselling, behaviour management, medical, therapy, equipment …

Your relationship with your case manager is voluntary, based on your active participation in your plan. The worker facilitates goal oriented planning with time defined supports. The person/family is always an active participant in all decisions.
