“…ICM includes multiple types of services (Fiander & Burns, 2000; Forchuk, Ouwerkerk, Yamashita, & Martin, 2002; Jacobs, Hughes, Challis, Stewart, & Weiner, 2006; Tin-Fu, Ng, Chan, & MacKenzie, 2000). For example, Fiander and Burns (2000) classified the services into 10 categories: housing, finance, daily living skills, criminal justice system, occupation and leisure, engagement, physical health, caregivers and significant others, specific mental health intervention or assessment and medication.…”

Background: In intensive case management (ICM), users receive a wide variety of services of varying content, which makes it difficult to understand the global features of ICM programs. Aims: The aim of this study was to examine the features of ICM programs using network analysis. Methods: A total of 233 ICM users in two Japanese medical institutions were recruited to participate. All received services were recorded for 2 months. In the network analysis, nodes represented types of ICM services and edges between two nodes depicted when over 5% of participants received both types of services. Results: We found high centrality values for ‘H5. Hospital-based counseling’, ‘O13. Outreach support for mental health medications’, ‘H13. Hospital-based support for mental health medication’, ‘T5. Counseling via telecommunication’, ‘H3. Hospital-based coordination of services in the medical institution’ and ‘T2. Coordination of services with other institutions via telecommunication’. These results indicated that these services were associated with various other types of services. Social functioning was related to ‘O13. Outreach support for mental health medication’, whereas need for ICM was related to ‘H13. Hospital-based support for mental health medications’, ‘T5. Counseling via telecommunication’ and ‘T2. Coordination of services with other institutions via telecommunication’ Conclusion: Based on these findings, we speculated that there are at least five types of core services in ICM: regular face-to-face contact, outreach services, hospital-based services, easy contacts and coordination. These findings clarified the features of ICM programs, which may help improve the understanding of case managers’ practice.

Little research can be found on nursing practice for populations needing non-traditional mental health care. A descriptive study was done with the nurses on the Community Link Service (CLS), an intensive psychiatric community follow-up program, to identify nursing interventions and the types of situations encountered. These nurses use the guiding principles of two current treatment modalities, Assertive Community Treatment and Clinical Case Management. The Nursing Interventions Classification System (NIC, McCloskey & Bulecheck, 2000) was used to code nursing interventions reported through interviews and critical incidents. The nursing interventions represented 93 interventions and included 400 different activities. The analysis showed that Case Management (79%) and Complex Relationship Building (71%) were their most common interventions followed by Medication Management (64%) and Surveillance (60%). Systems such as the NIC are useful tools, but they may not give a complete description of nursing practice in this setting.

The purpose of this study was to examine case managers' (CM) job position descriptions through content analysis. There were 29 case manager job position descriptions examined. The job descriptions could be grouped into four categories: (1) what the individuals should bring to the position, (2) what they did as CM, (3) to whom they were accountable, and (4) what was valued. Themes included focus on client as individual, focus on the external/system, or outer-directed work, and the articulation point between the individual and broader system. The CM works directly and indirectly in the system and community through education, organizing, planning, and networking, as well as through provision of direct care to the individual client. The expectations of the positions are extensive.
