What is the purpose of this enhancement?
• Streamline/simplify the assignment process and the maintenance of case assignments
• Enable system users to easily identify who is responsible for tasks on a case
• Use assignment roles as a key to producing reliable, accurate caseload reports (in hopes of someday eliminating manual hand-counting of cases!)
A Farewell to Roles• Primary Caseworker
– Was supposed to identify one person who was ultimately responsible for the case; however, feedback from customers indicated it wasn’t really being used that way.
– Additionally, it is a generic role that doesn’t specify what the assignee is responsible for.
• Family Service Worker– Family Service Worker was coined to
replace the term ‘Case Manager’. It really should never have been made into an assignment role. It will still be a part of the DCS culture and terminology moving forward. You will still see it in policies and other places. It just won’t be an assignment role in TFACTS.
• Worker– ??? Does anyone really know
what this was for???
A Farewell to Roles• Private Provider Worker
– Replaces:• Primary Caseworker• Family Services Caseworker• Worker
• JJ Custody/Aftercare Worker and SS Custody Worker– Replaces:
• Primary Caseworker• Family Service Worker
• Private Provider Worker– No Change
• Private Provider Supervisor– No Change
A Farewell to Roles• Supervisor
– A Supervisor supervises employees.
– When an employee is assigned, TFACTS knows the employee’s supervisor and can automatically make the association between the supervisor and the work item being assigned.
– No need for a manual assignment of the Supervisor role.
– Makes it that much more important to ensure your employee/supervisor data is kept current in TFACTS!
New Features• Access Assignment History from various
places throughout TFACTS• Correction utility for assignments
– Those who have the ability to make assignments will now have the ability to make corrections to assignments (dates, roles, employees, etc.)
• New Workload page design– Navigate to frequently accessed modules within
a Case directly from the new Workload page. – Manage assignments directly from the
Workload page.• Multi-Region access will no longer be
necessary– No more ‘switching organizations’– A single employee record for each employee
will allow access to caseloads in multiple regions; no more duplicate employee names on Supervisor workloads
New Features• DCS Placements Specialists
will make the Agency placement in the system
• The placement will automatically be generated and assigned to the On-Call Private Provider Designee based on the name and type of Placement.
• ** Note: Private Provider Resource Homes will be covered in the Resource Home Case Assignment Roles Enhancement Training
• The Designee will then assign the case to the Private Provider Supervisor/Worker
Home Tab / Workload New Features
• Home Screen Re-design
• Shows workload sub tab with any cases assigned
• Workload defaults to display 10 items per page.
• Can change to display in groups of 20, 35, 50, 75, or 100
