At V.I.P. Care Management, Inc., every client receives the benefit of our Team Approach to problem solving. All complex issues are discussed with the Team to develop solutions from a multi-disciplinary perspective. One of the greatest assets of the V.I.P. style of Care Management is that our employees come to us from a wide variety of professional and educational backgrounds, not just nursing and social work. The Team approaches problem solving through a variety of lenses for the benefit of our clients and their families. It is our belief that when a care management company limits their staff to only medical and social work professionals, their problem solving skills are limited to that narrow scope. Our clients depend upon us to guide them through all life management situations, so this diversity of backgrounds is essential.
