Abstract
Case management (CM) is a client-level approach to treatment that promotes the integration of human services across service providers. This approach has been adopted for home health care–based services through the case manager role. Few studies have explored the nonclinical competencies needed for case managers to be effective in their roles. This research documents the design and validation of a nonclinical competency model for case managers. Five competencies were identified: systems thinking, personal and professional accountability, facilitating creative thinking, communicating, and building relationships. Behavioral statements for each competency were assessed by a sample of case managers (for clarity, frequency of use, and experience needed) and generally supportive of the model structure. Implications for competency-based research and practice in CM are discussed.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
