Child welfare systems are on the brink of a needed paradigm shift with a variety of federal legislation efforts requiring states to modernize their data systems. As states continue to struggle with staff shortages and caseworker burnout, agencies must proactively evaluate organizational wellness and implement policies and programs to enhance employee well-being.
Guidehouse offers proactive solutions to enhance both child and employee well-being. This includes implementing user-friendly technology platforms designed to make advanced analytics and high-quality data readily available to help caseworkers further improve the lives of vulnerable children and families. Our experts bring decades of experience managing healthcare and social services programs, working with federal government agencies including the Department of Health and Human Services and Veterans Affairs, as well as state and local governments across 40 states.
The Guidehouse team works side-by-side with agency staff to support daily operations and implementation requirements across such areas as:
- Medicaid & Social Services Reform
- IT Implementation
- Change Management
- Behavioral Health
- Health Equity, Access, & Social Determinants of Health
- Children’s Hospital Solutions
Guidehouse partners with MDed to provide VitalChild, a fully integrated, interoperable technology platform helping stakeholders better access and share relevant case data to more proactively address and intervene on behalf of children in the child welfare system. The combination of Guidehouse’s policy and social services expertise and VitalChild’s innovative technology enable caseworkers to improve outcomes for children and families.
