Case study

Henry works as an AOD worker with young people at risk of homelessness. His job requires him to assess the needs of young people up to 17 years of age with alcohol and other drug issues. All of the young people referred to him are homeless or at risk of homelessness.

Henry is always careful in his record taking notes. He uses pen and if he makes a mistake, he is careful to sign and date the mistake. Henry follows his organisation's guidelines and is familiar with the requirements for using assessment forms, particularly the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) requirements. After every assessment process, Henry meets with the young person to give them feedback on his report.

Henry currently supports a young man with alcohol dependency that is making it hard for him to maintain secure housing as his parents now refuse to have him at home. He is untrained as he left school early and has been unable to keep employment for longer than a few weeks. He needs lots of support and Henry is making some referrals to assist him to find safer accommodation.
