Critical practice is at the core of all activity undertaken with
service users, carers and their communities. Conveying the diverse
nature of this work The Critical Practitioner in Social Work and
Health Care takes a comprehensive and reflective look at key areas
of practice and the challenges professionals face in training and
in their working lives. The chapters focus on the skills and values
fundamental to the caring role and helps readers understand the
importance of being able to adapt to changing demands and
expectations. Key features of the book include: " a
multiprofessional approach, incorporating examples from health,
social work, and social care " an integrated approach to theory and
practice " a range of case studies to illustrate key themes and
issues " coverage of core topics such as: ethics, management,
supervision, teamwork, interprofessional working, practice with
service-users, research, policy issues, accountability " strongly
supports underpinning knowledge for the National Occupational
Standards and subject benchmarks. The book encourages the reader to
develop the confidence and analytic skills to achieve best practice
across all areas of their work. It will be required reading for all
those studying social work, nursing, and allied caring professions.
It will also be of great help to practitioners wishing to reflect
on and develop their own practice. This Reader includes revised and
updated material from Brechin et al's Critical Practice in Health
and Social Care also published by SAGE (2000). Sandy Fraser is a
Lecturer in Social Work, Faculty of Health and Social Care at The
Open University. He co-edited Doing Research with Children and
Young People and The Reality of Research with Children and Young
People (both 2004) published by SAGE Publications in association
with The Open University. Sarah Matthews is a Staff Tutor in The
Open University regional office in Manchester. She is also a Mental
Health Act Commissioner and runs a training and consultancy
business. She worked for 20 years as a qualified social worker,
latterly as a senior manager.
The role of the approved mental health professional requires the
ability to make sound and ethical decisions based on knowledge of
mental health issues, psychiatry and the law. Critical thinking and
analysis are integral to the role, and practitioners need to be
able to balance technical knowledge with the ability to reflect on
their own, and the professional, value base.
This much-needed text not only covers the core themes and issues
pertaining to approved mental health practice, but also encourages
readers to critically reflect on what makes best practice. The book
begins by examining underpinning frameworks, including law, policy,
and ethics, and goes on to assess current issues and challenges
such as the experience of service users, the impact of space and
place, and the need for evidence based practice.
Drawing on the voices and perspectives of practitioners in the
field, this book not only covers what professionals need to know,
but also debates responses for an occupation in times of
uncertainty and change.
