Professional Case Management

Identifying risk factors associated with caregiver stress and suggesting methods for systematic caregiver screening for caregiver strain, depression, and anxiety.Emergency department, primary care, and other health care settings.Caregiver stress can lead to multiple negative outcomes including declines in physical health, increased mental health concerns, and overall decreased quality of life. Caregiver stress also leads to increased financial costs to the person, family, and health care systems, making it a public health issue. Recognizing caregiver stress is the initial step to identifying those in need of support and to providing quality care. Fortunately, caregiver stress can be prevented or reduced using a culturally competent multidimensional approach to addressing social determinants of health and unmet physical, psychological, and social/emotional needs of caregivers.Case management plays a critical role in assessing, educating, advocating, creating care plans, and advocating for both the caregiver and the care recipient.

Understanding the Impacts of Caregiver Stress

理解护理者压力的影响

Purpose: Human trafficking (HT) is the fastest growing crime in the world and a major health concern for healthcare. There is a critical lack of healthcare provider targeted HT education, resulting in the failure to identify, rescue, and provide proper care for victims of HT in the United States. All healthcare professionals must be vigilant and proactive in identifying and assisting victims of HT. Recognizing this need, the aim of this paper is to improve case managers’ awareness and knowledge of their role in HT. Primary Practice Settings: The primary setting for purposes of this paper is the hospital as this is the most likely setting where a case manager would encounter a victim of HT. It has been reported that 87.8% of victims report they have been in contact with a healthcare professional at some point during their trafficking with 63.3% occurring in a hospital/emergency room. Conclusion and Implications for Case Management Practice: Given the prevalence of HT and the likelihood of numbers growing, case managers should proactively learn to identify, rescue, and provide patient-centered care for victims of HT. This can be achieved through the knowledge of tools that exist to assist case managers in the identification of victims, including the AMP and SOAR models. Additionally, it is important to know one’s role, debunk the myths, and recognize the signs associated with trafficking. Providing a collaborative, patient-centered care approach that supports and empowers the victim will lead to improved victim outcomes and may aid the successful prosecution of the trafficker.
