Homework: Case Collaboration Meeting
Collaboration is a key part of social work practice. Most MSW professionals engage in these processes during the postgraduate practice years that each state requires before their licensing moves from supervised to independent status. Even beyond those requirements, peer consultation and collaboration are key aspects of most social work practice settings.
For this Homework, your Instructor has paired you with a consultation colleague. Imagine that you and your colleague are working with the client featured in the case study your Instructor assigned. Your task is to provide a diagnosis and present your findings in the Discussion.
Your diagnosis can come from any part of the DSM-5, so frequent communication and research with your colleague may be needed. Your colleague is there to help you think out, consult on, challenge, research, and polish your process before you record and post your own final analysis of this case.
The collaboration that begins in this Homework is intended to provide a safe venue for developing your differential diagnosis and case discussion skills with your colleague. This week you meet with your assigned partner at least once via Collaborate Ultra and begin considering the assigned case. In this Homework, you describe that meeting and any initial analysis of the case.
Submit a 1 to 2 pages paper in which you describe your team meeting. In your write-up, make sure to address the following:
o Describe the quality of your working relationship with your colleague.
- Critically reflect on strengths of collaborative relationship and areas for improvement.
o Describe your case in 100-150 words.
o Identify the red flags in your case study to be further evaluated.
o Outline your and your partner's plan for further research and consultation, identifying specific tasks that you are each doing in this regard.
- Identify days/times you have agreed to meet together, including the date planned to complete the CFI interview required for the Week 5 Homework.
Format your homework according to the following formatting requirements:
o The answer should be typed, using Times New Roman font (size 12), double spaced, with one-inch margins on all sides.
o The response also includes a cover page containing the title of the homework, the student's name, the course title, and the date. The cover page is not included in the required page length.
