When considering case closure, it is best practice for a case manager to?

  1. Immediately close the case

  2. Consult with a lawyer

  3. Discuss the closing with the family

  4. Wait for a court order

The correct answer is: Discuss the closing with the family

Case closure is an important step in the case management process, as it indicates that the goals and objectives of the case have been met. While it may seem efficient to immediately close the case (choice A), this could potentially close the case prematurely and lead to negative outcomes. Consulting with a lawyer (choice B) may seem like a logical step, but it may not always be necessary depending on the specifics of the case. Waiting for a court order (choice D) may also not be the best option, as it could prolong the case unnecessarily. It is important for the case manager to discuss the closing with the family (choice C) to ensure that they are on board and that all parties are in agreement before officially closing the case. This promotes collaboration and ensures that the family's needs and opinions are taken into consideration, ultimately leading to a more successful and satisfactory outcome.
