Integrated case management: the AID Atlanta Model.
This article describes the integrated case management model being developed by AID Atlanta, Inc., a community-based AIDS service organization. The case management system features centralized supervision and coordination with decentralized delivery of case management services that avoid duplication of services. The model establishes a system that links clients to appropriate levels of service. The integrated model seeks to address the client's physical, psychological, emotional, and spiritual needs across a continuum of care delivery. The cornerstone of the system is the development of standards of service, systematic documentation, and outcome evaluation criteria.
