Description

The authors present an overview of the history of VA case management. Then, using a leadership conceptual framework, they provide the results of their systematic review of case management literature specific to the VA. The authors note that there are few published articles that address leadership among VA case managers. Further research is needed to assess the annual VA AES and the responses of RNs, social workers, and case managers utilizing a leadership conceptual framework. The authors recommend attention to leadership development among case managers to help improve morale, retention, and performance.
