This involves negotiation between client and various services providers as to how client service will be delivered. An example would be the implementation of personal care services suitable to the client needs which may necessitate in-home aide, Adult Day health, Meals preparation and nursing services. In each services plan, the social worker will specify goals/objectives and dates for completion or continuation review.
