This comprehensive book delves into the intricate complexities of clinical social work practice in the healthcare realm today. It uncovers a wide range of psychological, social, emotional, and spiritual aspects associated with physical illness in adults. The approach incorporates theories from trauma, crisis intervention, and supportive counseling, as well as empirical literature from various healthcare fields. Recognizing the diverse roles of social workers in healthcare, the authors have developed practical clinical assessment and intervention strategies that are valuable for social workers across diverse healthcare settings.
By adopting a unified clinical analysis framework, social workers can enhance their critical thinking abilities in assessing the profound impacts of specific illnesses and injuries on coping and well-being. Each chapter provides a comprehensive analysis of the psychosocial consequences of the given medical condition across various spectrums. These spectrums include the onset, course, outcome, and degree of incapacitation of the illness or injury, the relationship between the nature of the illness and emotional and psychosocial functioning, common clinical issues, the impacts of historical and current trauma, end-of-life and bereavement, social justice, and the authors' reflections on practice.
The Practice of Clinical Social Work in Healthcare serves as an indispensable resource for MSW students and social work professionals engaged in healthcare. It offers a comprehensive and insightful exploration of the field, equipping practitioners with the knowledge and skills necessary to provide effective and compassionate care to patients and their families.
