Social Work Care Manager InternshipAt — California Health Collaborative
You will learn case management in a program for frail seniors who are at risk of being placed in a nursing home. The goal of the program is to help keep these seniors living safely at home for as long as possible. Duties will include shadowing and learning how to complete assessments, develop a care plan, and speaking with our participants on at least a monthly basis. You will speak with participants through phone calls and in person at quarterly home visits. CHC-Multi-purpose Senior Services Program (MSSP) will provide you with valuable experience as well as the chance to make a real difference in the lives of seniors and their families as you complete the work duties of a social work care manager.
Students will be provided training during the first month of internship, which will include pre-recorded trainings, live trainings, and shadowing of social workers as they conduct their normal work duties.
Safety training is provided prior to being assigned to complete home visits. Interns may be exposed to a variety of living conditions and levels of cleanliness.
