Fundamentals of Perinatal Social Work: A Guide for Clinical
Practice provides perinatal social work students and beginning
practitioners with an overview of the basics of perinatal social
work theory and practice, allowing you to identify and promote a
healthy social and emotional environment for pregnant women and/or
infants. This book covers the knowledge bases of obstetric and
neonatal medicine--and other specialized topics--as applied to
social work practice that you'll need to be familiar with in order
to provide effective care for mother and child. As a guide for new
workers, students, and experienced social workers in perinatal
settings, Fundamentals of Perinatal Social Work is the only book to
approach the topic with the necessary overview of medical
information. Beyond the history and basics of perinatal and medical
social work, you'll also learn about such related topics as:
adoption postpartum depression mental illness diabetesOften,
students and new workers find themselves overwhelmed with the
medical information and technology they must understand in order to
function in perinatal social work. The literature that guides the
social work practice is shared with medicine, nursing, public
health, and others, and the busy student and new worker do not have
the time to gather a body of literature to use as a reference.
Fundamentals of Perinatal Social Work provides such a reference and
illustrates the depth and breadth the field of perinatal social
work has come to encompass today. Perinatal social workers are no
longer employed only in hospital settings, but work in AIDS
clinics, public health settings, ethics centers, and private
practice. Whatever the setting, the goal of perinatal social work
is still the same--to maximize the potential of every infant and
every family. This book helps you achieve that goal.
