    I believe everyone on this email thread was aware of my meeting today with Joe Baldwin, Guardian, of Kathy Rennich to discuss her recent return from inpatient rehabilitation at a local nursing facility and her expressed desire to move to the Hensgen Home. Basically, in February 2017, Kathy fell resulting in a fractured tail bone. She received inpatient rehabilitation at Care Springs for fourteen days and has returned home with PT services. Since her return home, Kathy has refused to participate in ADL’s (which isn’t a change in pattern as she refused prior to the nf stay) and is demanding that she have the opportunity to live at the Hensgen Home. Kathy’s reasoning behind wanting to move the Hengsen Home isn’t exactly clear to the team.

    1442 Words  | 6 Pages

    The role of the social worker entailed finding out if Mr. Kirby would have family support before he is discharged, and to find resources to assist Mr. Kirby with all his needs along with getting the family extra support as caregivers. Working with the patient/family, the social worker was professional and nonjudgmental. She also exhibited compassion and empathy. She took responsibility in not releasing Mr. Kirby due to a high risk of him falling again. Although I feel she did a good job, she could have been more resourceful in catering to Mr. Kirby needs such as, making sure professionals he was receiving resources from were staying on top of their jobs.
