Professional Social Work Education and Health Care responds to
critical concerns about the educational preparation of social
workers within the rapidly changing health care environment.
Contributors address issues and questions of importance to
educators who are contending with the multiple challenges of
rapidly changing institutions, fiscal constraints, and service to
populations with complex social health care needs. This coverage
provides you with important visions of the future education of
leaders in health care social work. The editors of Professional
Social Work Education and Health Care present information that
looks to the future in order to open the floor for communication
among the leaders in health care social work settings. Chapters
explain the context of social work practice, exploe current social
work practice issues, and look into continuing education and
fieldwork. In doing so, they give you valuable information about
imprtant issues such as: changes in social work department
structure and function in challenging economic times collaborative
efforts and reciprocal relationships in education and training
emergence of networks that will join forces with hospitals
preparation for short-term, solution-based social work the
remaining need for traditional, long-term social work frameworks
and values the shift in ideology to viewing clients as consumers
rather than patients modification of curriculum to focus on
parenting, health education, adolescent pregnancy prevention, and
wellness programs emergence of a model for post-master's education
field work in community-based health care placements versus
inpatient hospital settingsThis book's model for making education
and practice responsive to each other and for responding to the
needs for collaboration makes it a valuable resource for social
work educators, practitioners, and clinicians in health and mental
health; advanced gerontologists in academic and practice agencies;
and teachers of policy and research in health concentrations in
schools of social work. Professional Social Work Education and
Health Care is an excellent ancillary text for advanced
undergraduate and graduate courses in social work practice in
health and mental health and is a strong addition to reading lists
for classes on social work with the aged, social work research in
health care, and field work seminars in health and mental health.
