CWES Assessment - Disclosure of Medical Condition, Domestic Abuse, Mental Health, or Substance Abuse
When the client discloses Medical Condition, Domestic Abuse, Mental Health, or Substance Abuse problems, a referral to, or consultation with, the CalWORKs SW or HA must be made prior to, or concurrent with, the referral for Assessment.
Refer to Health Alliance in the CalWORKs Handbook for more information on Domestic Abuse.
If a client discloses a medical condition, the EC must obtain an “Authorization to Release Medical Information” (CW 61), as appropriate.
When the client discloses information indicating a possible learning disability, a learning disability screening must be conducted and at client option, may be referred to in-house Assessment.
Refer to Learning Disability Screenings.
