2. You are assigned to the Case family. Mr. Case is a working husband and father of a thirteen had an exacerbation - a severe attack that has caused loss of function in both lower limbs and his left arm. His right arm (his dominant arm) is weak. Mrs. Case is 33 and has just recentie returned home from hospital following shoulder surgery. Both parents require some assistance with personal care, as well as help caring for their daughter, Gail. Assisting the Family, Gail has just leared to walk alone. Although both parents can pick Gail up, it's difficult. As well, it's impossible to hold her if she squirms or resists. The Cases have never received assistance in the past. There is one relative living close by, but she is older and has some serious health problems. They have many friends, but none upon whom they might call for help with personal care. The Cases are both professionals. Mrs. Case has been a health professional for a number of years. In particular, Mrs. Case finds accepting help to be extremely difficult. Mr. Case is adamant that the homemaker is to care for the infant only. Your assignment clearly indicates that you are to assist the parents as well as the child with care. a. How would you find out what Mrs. Case expects from you? b. What do you think Mr. Case expects of you? What would the PSW's role be? Why? C. d. What problems do you expect you might encounter working for the Cases?
