Medical Leave Case Scenario
Julie Rice works for a computer company where she has been employed for four years as a lead supervisor. During the past two years Julie’s mother has needed frequent medical attention for her diabetes. Being an only child, Julie has helped her mother as often as her work schedule would allow. Unfortunately during the past two years, her mother’s condition has worsened.
Julie asked the firm for and was granted an unpaid leave to care for her mother in accordance with FMLA and company policy. The agreement stated that Julie could miss work every Friday for 60 weeks rather than taking time off 12 straight weeks. At the end of the 60 weeks Julie returned to work full time and immediately began missing work to care for her mother until all of her allotted vacation and sick leave were exhausted. She then asked that her Friday leave be extended indefinitely because her mother’s condition remained serious and she required ongoing assistance.
The HR director was uncertain what the response should be. The firm needed Julie to be at work regularly because of the increasingly heavy workload, the fact that her job duties were critical and because other supervisors and employees preferred not to have to cover for her. On the other hand Julie was an excellent supervisor and had worked for four years at this company. In addition everyone was concerned about Julie and her mother’s welfare and wanted to support them.
The policy manual reads as follows:
Employees who have worked for at least one year and worked 1,250 hours during the 12 months period preceding the commencement of the leave year are eligible to take up to 12 weeks of unpaid job protected leave for one or more of the following reasons:
Birth of a son or daughter of employee and to care for such son/daughter; placement of a son/daughter with employee for adoption or foster care; care for spouse, son, daughter, or parent of employee if said person has a serious health condition; or a serious health condition that makes the employee unable to perform function of the position of such employee.

Social workers need to be able to identify cultural conceptions of illness and mental illness. Because studies show that anxiety and depression differ from culture to culture and within cultures, it is important to build skill using the Cultural Formulation Interview (CFI) to elicit how an individual has actually incorporated their cultural beliefs. While the core interview is a set of 16 questions, more detailed versions expand on each area. In this Assignment, you sensitively apply the CFI to your case collaboration partner as well as research how to address and individualize anxiety resources for your partner’s culture and needs.
To prepare:
• Read the Diaz (2017) article (ATTACHED) and take note of their experience using the CFI and the advantages they found in the process. Also note the minority stress concerns that arise in those working with anxiety issues in different cultures.
• Review the CFI questions (ATTACHED) and readings in the DSM-5 *ATTACHED) on cultural variations, syndromes, and idioms.
• Meet your collaboration partner and take turns administering the CFI questions (and any needed subsections) to each other. Your partner will role-play an anxiety issue but otherwise be as true to their own situation as possible.
• Observe how the CFI administration process goes and take any notes needed. Based on what you learn about your partner’s needs and culture, you may need to do further research in the suggested readings and library before submitting your Assignment.
Submit a 4-page paper in which you do the following:
• 1. Describe the skills or techniques you used to engage your partner during the CFI.
• 2. Explain which aspects of the CFI were the most helpful in learning about your partner’s personal view of the problem and situation.
• 3. Identify which relevant subsections of the CFI you used. Explain why you did (or did not) use a subsection as part of your assessment.
• 4. Analyze how you, as a social work treatment provider, might adjust interventions for the client, their individualized circumstances, and culture of origin.
• 5. Describe culturally appropriate evidence-based treatment recommendations for intervention. Support these recommendations with evidence from scholarly resources.
• 6. Recommend a specific evidence-based measurement instrument to validate the diagnosis and assess outcomes of treatment. Explain any cultural considerations you made when determining an appropriate instrument.
