The agency should assess the client's situation during the intake interview and assign a case manager based on the determined need. This way, the client receives the appropriate level of assistance without being overwhelmed or underserved. Simply assigning an administrative case manager or a resource coordinator may not be sufficient in determining the level of need for the client. Choosing the most intensive level of case manager may also be unnecessary for some clients and waste agency resources.
