Case Managers typically work for government agencies or hospitals to help people across a variety of age groups with mental and physical conditions. They act as an advocate for their client’s health and make sure they receive the right care for their situation. Their job is to work with healthcare professionals like Doctors and Nurses to come up with a treatment plan that best fits their client’s needs. They also arrange transitional plans for clients to continue receiving excellent care after being discharged from the hospital. Transitional plans ensure that clients continue to improve even without the constant care provided in a hospital setting.
