CBF-5 Case Management & Client Support Coordination
In this section, we explore the inter-dependencies within the critical business function (CBF) "CBF-5 Case Management & Client Support Coordination" at SHINE Children and Youth Services.
This function is integral to ensuring that children and youth in need of assistance receive the appropriate care, services, and support throughout their journey.
Understanding the relationships among Sub-CBFs, as well as their internal and external dependencies, is essential for maintaining continuity of care in both routine operations and crises.
Each Sub-CBF within Case Management & Client Support Coordination relies on various internal and external entities to function effectively.
The nature of these dependencies—whether upstream, downstream, or mutual—shapes the timeliness, quality, and efficiency of services delivered to clients.
This chapter will highlight these relationships, helping BCM coordinators at SHINE plan for disruptions and ensure a smooth recovery by identifying where interdependencies may pose risks or create opportunities.

Vital records are essential for the continuity and recovery of critical business functions in the event of a disaster or disruption.
At SHINE Children and Youth Services, the Case Management & Client Support Coordination (CBF-5) function is critical to maintaining client care and service delivery.
This chapter examines the vital records that support the Sub-Critical Business Functions (Sub-CBFs) under CBF-5, with a focus on those required to ensure the continuity of case management activities, service coordination, monitoring, and client discharge processes.
These records are vital to maintaining client care, ensuring regulatory compliance, and enabling a seamless transition during crisis recovery.

In the context of CBF-5 Case Management & Client Support Coordination, the management and protection of vital records are paramount to ensure that services can be resumed or recovered swiftly after a disaster or crisis.
These records contain critical client information, care plans, and documentation necessary for decision-making, service coordination, and compliance with legal requirements.
By establishing appropriate locations, media types, and custodianship for these records, SHINE can ensure they remain accessible and secure, enabling a smooth recovery process while maintaining continuous, high-quality client care.
This chapter emphasises the importance of thorough documentation and proper record-keeping in the face of disruptions, ensuring that SHINE’s mission of providing comprehensive, practical support to at-risk youth and their families remains intact through any challenges.
