Case study
Amy is a 2 year old child who has attended a children service for the last three months.her mother Jessie is 22 year old.Children's service staff have noted that jessie can be socially inappropriate,telling parents who she does not know very personal details,including that she has been diagnosed with bi-polar disorder and that before she had Amy she tried to commit suicide. the staff are aware that Jessie is a client of a community mental health service but are not sure whether she takes medication.Jessie makes sure Amy is always well dressed and fed and likes to tell everyone about interesting things they have done together.
Last week one of the children's service staff over heard her telling another parent that she thinks Amy is very bright,because everyone says she has such good manners.As Amy's key worker you are concerned that Amy has delayed language development and feel she should have a hearing test and possibly a speech therapy assessment.Today Jessicacame in looking very down and tells a staff member that she has revived an eviction notice from her unit
