Abstract: This study aimed to explore the impact of casework intervention on the mental health of elderly people with mild disabilities. The study used a single case study design and selected a 76-year-old elderly person with mild disability as the research subject. Comprehensive assessment tools, in-cluding disability assessment, psychological status assessment, and social support assessment, were used to understand the mental health status and personal needs of older adults. During the intervention phase, social workers conduct individual psychotherapy with the elderly, and provide coping skills training and family support. The studies used qualitative and quantitative methods to collect data, including interview records, treatment records, and psychometric scales. The results showed that the mental health of the elderly improved significantly after the intervention of case-work. Older adults report feeling more emotionally stable, learning to cope effectively with the challenges of disability, and increasing social interactions. In addition, family members also ex-pressed positive results from the casework intervention. The results of this study support the ap-plication of casework in the mental health of mildly disabled older adults and highlight the im-portance of individualized support and intervention.
