Duties

VA Careers - Social Work:

The VA Midwest Health Care Network advocates for a Whole Health System of care in each of the Medical Centers. This is an approach to healthcare that empowers and equips people to take charge of their health and well-being and live their lives to the fullest. As an employee operating in a Whole Health System of care, you will operate in a model with three core elements, seeking to create a personalized health plan for each Veteran. This is done in the context of healing relationships and healing environments and a connection back to the Veteran's community. This aligns with the Veterans Health Administration (VHA) Mission Statement to Honor America's Veterans by providing exceptional health care that improves their health and well-being.

The incumbent provides clinical case management services to the Veteran population enrolled at the Fargo VA Medical Center. Services include provision of high quality case management, clinical treatment, advocacy, and coordination of linkages to other appropriate VA or community service providers and agencies as needed by the client. Expectations in this area will include a significant focus of providing case management and care coordination in support of evidence-based treatment outside of specialty care including medications for opioid use disorder (OUD) and treatment of alcohol use disorder (AUD). This work typically requires extensive coordination of services with a wide range of Veterans and through the VA Health Care system and is accomplished in collaboration with other members of the outpatient mental health and substance use teams, or other interdisciplinary treatment teams as appropriate.

The clinical case manager takes a proactive and collaborative population health approach to longitudinal mental health care coordination focused on the treatment and management of acute or chronic mental health conditions, to include substance use disorders. Case management includes systems collaboration and the linking of Veterans, families and caregivers with needed services and resources, including wellness opportunities. Case management may include initiating, and providing oversight and management of, a comprehensive plan for Veterans with complex mental health care needs.

Duties include, but are not limited to:

  • Identification - Veterans are identified for the potential need for case management through self-referral, referral from family/caregivers, referral through acting as BHIP Liaison or SA TP or community partners.
  • Crisis Intervention - As needed, the Social Worker makes rapid assessments and develops crisis management plans to meet Veteran needs in the least restrictive setting; in the event of a medical or psychiatric emergency, Social Worker will follow the protocol of the Medical Center.
  • Screening- Social Worker will screen all referred Veterans for clinical eligibility for case management services using standardized level of care coordination tools in order to ensure consistency of screening and subsequent services.
  • Comprehensive Assessment - The social worker will complete an assessment of the veteran's family, economic, community, and psychosocial support systems when clinically indicated; assessments must reflect a high level of skill in gathering, analyzing, interpreting, and documenting data that is pertinent and directly related to patient health care planning, treatment, education and case management; Veterans, family members, significant others and the interdisciplinary treatment team are involved in this process, whenever possible;
  • Mental Health Diagnosing using DSM-5 and ICD-10 Codes- Social Worker demonstrates knowledge in DSM-5 diagnosing and documents diagnostic impressions in psychosocial assessments when appropriate; Social Worker may function independently or within a team to determine an appropriate diagnosis and formulate a treatment plan based on that diagnosis.
  • Need Identification -Key concerns, needs and preferences of Veteran,

    family/caregiver is identified; Social Worker assigns initial level of care coordination, and further stratifies Veterans receiving complex care coordination into 'tiers' or 'levels' per the type of case management interventions and frequency of contacts.
  • Problem Solving and Goal Identification -Social Worker initiates problem-solving strategies during which Veteran and family/caregivers desired or expected goal(s), and outcome(s) are recognized, organized and prioritized through a brokered process between the Veteran, family or caregiver and Social Worker.
Work Schedule: Monday - Friday, 8:00 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.
