Jasmine Clark: Cont. HR 68, RR 22, BP 116/86, Temp 98.9, O2 sat-100%
History of Chief Complaint:
Jasmine reports she needs help because she overthinks everything and thinks she has a mental illness. Intrusive, obsessive thoughts started when she was 14 years old. She reports watching a television show about sex offenders and began to think that she would engage in behaviors she saw on the TV show. She reports thoughts that she might hurt or kill her parents and she is very frightened by these thoughts. She started having suicidal thoughts so that she wouldn’t hurt other people and feels the need to punish herself for those thoughts. She tries to distract herself with other thoughts in order to avoid the homicidal and suicidal thoughts. She denies history of self-injurious behaviors or eating disorders.
The pediatrician recommends that Jasmine go to the nearest emergency department for referral to an inpatient adolescent unit. The recommendation is Voluntary Commitment.
Her parents voice concern regarding their daughters willingness to actually go to a hospital.

Done: View
Introduction
The first module discusses the role of the case manager in a wide variety of settings. Case management is not only a large part of the acute care setting but, is becoming more and more accessible in the outpatient setting. With current changes in CMS guidelines Case Managers must critically think and evaluate patient and family dynamics quickly to assess for needs outside of the acute care setting. In week one we will review the differences in roles of the case manager.

You have been hired as a consultant by a hospital that is going to begin using case managers in the acute, home care, and primary care settings. You meet with the vice president (VP) of patient services. She tells you that the hospital tried to use case managers 3 years ago, and the project failed. She believes one of the major reasons it failed is because there was no clear position description or role description that was understood by the staff. She would like you to help develop an effective nurse case manager position description.

2. Describe the role of the nurse case manager in acute, home care, and primary care settings.
