This subject critically analyses theories and strengths-based frameworks informing case management practice, and seeks to critique those that stem from a colonising ideology. Students will benefit from learning how colonisation impacts on contemporary human services case management. Case management is a widely accepted and effective model of practice in health, human services, and other community-based sectors supporting people with complex needs. This subject will examine the generic skills used in case management and their application by a range of disciplines, and associated practice settings. It will explore the diverse contexts where case management is delivered including, but not limited to, the disability sector, person directed care and commissioning frameworks, and how these contexts are impacted by certain discourses and policy that come from initiatives such as Reconciliation, and Closing the Gap. An analysis of those frameworks will help identify the delivery of models of practice.
