The social worker will refer to other providers if requested by the veteran at any time in the treatment process. The social worker will collaborate with other service providers in reassessing the veteran's needs for inpatient, outpatient, residential, or community-based programs.

Resource Development: The social worker is responsible for maintaining a resource file of VA and community social service programs and will refer the veteran to services, as needed. Advocacy: The social worker will act as an advocate to assist veterans with a variety of concerns.

Crisis Intervention: The social worker will conduct risk assessments at the appropriate time and when necessary, develop individualized crisis management plans to maintain the veteran's physical and mental health.
