attention of the Party and State, occupying a central position in the national social welfare system Over the years, the state has paid great attention to comprehensive care and support for people with disabilities, from education and health policies to policies on social protection and integration in particular, the Vietnam Law on People with Disabilities was promulgated and implemented into activities to help people with disabilities and has had encouraging results However, assisting people with disabilities is an activity that needs the coordination and efforts of departments, branches, mass organizations, agencies, organizations and the whole society In that context, social work, with its characteristics, has a great role to play in promoting comprehensive coordination in the process of assisting people with disabilities Finding a suitable social work method for people with disabilities will help a lot in supporting activities for people with disabilities in our country Case Management is a method in social work practice, known in English as Case Management, this method is widely applied in social work around the world to help disadvantaged people, but this is a new problem for Vietnam, both in theory and in practice Theoretically, there have not been many studies in our country on this issue on a large scale such as theses or projects at ministerial or state level, but only in narrow scope such as Case Management at a center, in practice, the implementation of Case Management has not really taken place in the locality, at any agency in a systematic manner and carries the true nature of Case Management, Case Management for people with disabilities also in the same situation Therefore, clarifying the theoretical issues of Case Management such as purpose, philosophy, process is an urgent requirement of the social work industry On the other hand, practical issues of Case Management such as organizational methods, implementation techniques, the role of social workers in this work when assisting disadvantaged people, especially especially how people with disabilities in Vietnam is a problem that needs to be studied and understood Within the framework of the Project to develop the social work profession in Vietnam for the period 2010-2020, on January 6, 2015, the Ministry of Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs issued Circular No 01/2015/TT-BLĐTBXH Guidelines on Case Management for people with disabilities and took effect from February 25, 2015 The Circular provides quite specific guidelines on issues related to Case Management for people with disabilities such as definitions, processes, tasks as well as organization and responsibilities of agencies and services in Case Management for people with disabilities This is a circular of great significance in helping people with disabilities in our country, if done well, on the one hand, it will help people with disabilities receive comprehensive and systematic assistance, get provide the best possible support services; on the other hand, the implementation of this circular will also ensure a unified coordination mechanism between the units responsible for supporting people with disabilities in sectors such as health, education, labor and other institutions in society However, what is the actual implementation of Case Management for people with disabilities in each locality, what are the advantages, difficulties or obstacles, the services, human resources implemented and support how the Case Management for people with disabilities responds also requires an overall assessment to make reasonable adjustments Da Nang is a leading locality in the country in a number of fields, especially in the fields of society, the issue of social work development and assistance for people with disabilities has also been focused and interested, initially achieved remarkable achievements Since the beginning of 2014, Da Nang city has established a Case Management/supervision network to assist people with disabilities in 56 communes and wards with the participation of nearly 200 officials from branches of Labor Invalids and Social Affairs, Health, Education and Training Up to now, this system has been put into operation relatively well, case managers have basically performed the main steps of the Case Management process such as comprehensive needs assessment, open Case Management file, develop an individualized support, referral or connection plan Currently, the whole city has opened records and put into Case Management for more than 1,680 people with disabilities, this is a very positive initial result, helping to improve the quality of service delivery for social groups improve the practice skills of social work of local social workers, and at the same time create a premise for well implementation of subject management according to the Case Management model under the orientation of the Ministry of Labor, War Invalids and Social Affairs in the coming time

major Other sectors Source: Author's statistics New scientific contributions of the thesis CHAPTER THEORETICAL BASIS OF CASE MANAGEMENT FOR PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES 2.1 The concept and classification of people with disabilities 2.1.1 The concept of people with disabilities Within the scope of this thesis, we use the definition of a person with a disability according to Clause 1, Article 2, Chapter 1, Law on People with Disabilities of Vietnam This is a fairly complete definition, which synthesizes different interpretations of disability and is suitable for Vietnamese conditions and circumstances: “Person with a disability is a person who has a defect in one or more body parts or a functional decline manifested in the form of a disability that makes working, living and studying difficult” [10, Page 2] 2.1.2 Classification of people with disabilities 2.1.3 Difficulties of people with disabilities People with disabilities in general with biological characteristics plus barriers brought by society face many difficulties in life and activities Biologically, they have difficulties in walking, locomotion, mobility, difficulty in hearing, speech, communication, vision difficulties, cognitive difficulties, etc From those problems come difficulties difficulties in learning, employment, marriage, family, and living difficulties are stigmatized and discriminated against These difficulties limit the participation and social integration of people with disabilities 2.2 General overview of Case Management and Case Management for people with disabilities 2.2.1 Case Management concept The book of Standards of Case Management of American Association of Social Workers (2013) emphasizes Case Management as "a process on behalf of the individual/family that plans, seeks, advocates, and supervises the services of different organizations/individuals providing social and health care services This process helps social workers in one organization or in different organizations work together to serve an individual/family through working with a specialized team, thereby expanding the scope of providing necessary services Case management minimizes problems arising from service fragmentation, staffing changes, and lack of coordination among service providers Case management can occur in a single, 11 large-scale organization or in a community program that requires coordination of services across different environments” [27] 2.2.2 Case Management for people with disabilities Deriving from the researches on people with disabilities, on Case Management and Case Management for people with disabilities by domestic and foreign authors, we provide an understanding of Case Management for people with disabilities are as follows: Case Management for people with disabilities is the process of comprehensively assisting case managers for people with disabilities and their families by performing tasks such as collecting information gathering, needs assessment, planning, implementation, follow-up, evaluation and case closure to address difficulties and meet the needs of persons with disabilities, enabling them to achieve their basic rights 2.3 Tasks of Case Management for people with disabilities Case Management for people with disabilities is a new field in both theory and practice in Vietnam, research on this issue is mainly exploited in terms of process implementation, in which, go into the analysis of the steps in the Case Management process for people with disabilities and study specifically on the Case Manager subject, but not on different aspects from the people with disabilities subject and support services, therefore, in the theoretical basis, we explore issues related to the Case Management implementation process Thereby, to guide the practical research, we build the theoretical basis through international studies on the implementation process and based on legal documents to come up with this process These steps in the process are what we call Case Manager tasks to make them more accessible Thus, the Case Management process includes steps corresponding to general and specific tasks of the case manager (1) Collecting initial information of people with disabilities; (2) Assess the needs of people with disabilities; (3) Develop a plan to assist people with disabilities; (4) Implement a plan to assist people with disabilities; (5) Evaluate and conclude Case Management for people with disabilities In addition to promulgating a guiding circular, Labour, Invalids and Social Affairs also agreed on forms for recording and keeping records on Case Management for people with disabilities [3] 2.4 Factors affecting the task of Case Management for people with disabilities 2.4.1 Case Manager’s knowledge, skills, and attitudes 12 Case Manager’s knowledge is critical to the success of help cases If the Case Manager does not have a professional background in Case Management for people with disabilities Those who implement Case Management need to be equipped with knowledge about Case Management in a systematic and systematic way The basic knowledge that a Case Manager needs is knowledge of the social system, knowledge of human psychology, principles and ethical regulations in Case Management For Case Managers for people with disabilities, they need to have knowledge about disability issues, about people with disabilities, policies for people with disabilities, etc 2.4.2 Social services and resources to assist people with disabilities 2.4.2.1 Social services to assist people with disabilities Social services are activities that provide and support individuals, families, groups and communities in society with information, documents, material and technical conditions to solve difficult problems or get a solution for a certain situation or need For example, legal consulting services, health care services, employment services, banking and financial services, etc 2.4.2.2 Resources to assist people with disabilities Resource is understood as the condition of facilities, expertise, health, willpower of individuals or groups to participate in problem solving, or create an event 2.4.2.3 Policy and Law for people with disabilities and Case Manager Legal policy is the foundation of implementing Case Management for people with disabilities, it has a great role in bringing about the effectiveness of this activity Legislation policy within the scope of the thesis includes two groups, legal policy towards people with disabilities and families, the second group is towards Case Manager 13 CHAPTER THE STATUS OF THE TASK OF MANAGING THE CASE OF PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES IN DANANG CITY 3.1 Introduction of research area and situation of care and support for people

Firstly, Circular 01/2015 has issued the process of carrying out Case Management for people with disabilities, but it is necessary to have specific guiding documents and to develop a training program for Case Manager to perform this task In addition, there should be a regular and periodic monitoring and guidance mechanism for the implementation of Case Management for people with disabilities locally and in facilities that sponsor people with disabilities Secondly, it is necessary to clearly issue regulations on regimes and policies for social workers, social workers, and social work collaborators to participate in Case Management activities for people with disabilities This policy includes what benefits they enjoy when participating in the implementation of Case Management for people with disabilities, such as how to reduce other tasks, how to receive allowances Thirdly, policies for people with disabilities need consistency and synchronization across different departments and fields First of all, regulations on diagnosis and evaluation, identification of defects, need to have consistency, clarity and specific guidance Finally, there should be provisions for the presence of social workers locally and in sponsoring institutions so that they can focus on performing these activities without being overwhelmed by other duties 4.1.2 Measures to strengthen the capacity of support services for people with disabilities Medical services for people with disabilities need to be provided with more diverse and modern rehabilitation equipment In parallel, it is developing a variety of types of support such as physical therapy combined with occupational rehabilitation, speech therapy, etc., an interdisciplinary and transdisciplinary approach to supporting people with disabilities In addition, it is also necessary to improve the capacity of the rehabilitation staff at the above hospitals in the direction of increasing the number of rehabilitation doctors, enhancing their expertise on occupational rehabilitation and training of doctors in speech therapy… 18
