Behavioral Health Case Management Services, Adults

New River Valley Community Services offers Adult Behavioral Health Case Management Services to individuals who show evidence of severe and recurrent disability resulting from a behavioral health disorder. The disability must result in functional limitations in major life activities and individuals must be expected to require services for an extended period of time or must have undergone psychiatric treatment more intensive than outpatient services on more than one occasion.



The primary goal of case management is to help individuals maintain stability and placement within the community. Case managers assess the individual’s specific psychiatric and physical healthcare needs, in order to better connect them with available resources and supports.



Once an Individual Service Plan (ISP) has been implemented, case managers meet with the individual monthly to review services, goals, objectives and assess for any changes in needs. The Plan is person centered and is reviewed quarterly to ensure that ongoing needs are being addressed appropriately.



Case management services can be provided within the client’s community, home and the behavioral health clinic.
