Marcus wants his own apartment
Marcus, 27, has a schizoaffective disorder diagnosis and has lived with his aunt since his last hospitalization eight months ago. He tells you he wants his own apartment. His aunt tells you privately that he 'can't even do laundry.' His prescriber notes he is stable on current medication.

- 2. Identify one intervention that would be case management and rewrite it as a rehabilitation intervention.
- 3. How will you include the aunt's observations without letting her concerns override Marcus's stated goal?
