CASE STUDY
You are a Homeless Outreach Support worker for TeamHealth
Aboriginal Corporation, working with the Homelessness Outreach Support (HOS) Program that supports those who are homeless, or at risk of becoming homeless, and their families.
You have secured stable accommodation for your clients, and you now must assist and support them to access mainstream agencies to address mental health issues.
You have been allocated a family that consists of a mother (Rowanna), son (Danian), and daughter (Alinta). The mother has been a survivor of domestic violence, experienced from her partner for the last five years. She states she has now left this partner but is reluctant to discuss this due to stigma and shame. Rowanna presents as highly anxious, tells you she has trouble sleeping and has recurring nightmares due to the violence she was subjected to. Alinta (12yrs old) has been diagnosed with depression and anxiety, is withdrawn and does not seem to be coping well. Danian is unable to sit still, especially in calm or quiet surroundings and constantly fidgeting. He is unable to concentrate on tasks, has excessive physical movement, excessive talking, interrupts constantly and acts without thinking. Rowanna said she believes her son has ADHD. All three family members look tired and undernourished.
