The Real Experiment Everyday we see different places, different people, and different situations. It is their factors, similarities, or differences that change different settings. I have recently switched campuses from Flint to Owosso and was surprised by the similarities and differences they both offered. For this experiment, comparing campuses would be a perfect candidate. The norms, deviance, social movements, and social control of the campuses.…

I am a good fit in relation to the mission of EMU’s MSW program through the values I represent, the experiences I’ve absorbed and the people I aim the tend for. I value all life and believe that working with people different from yourself is both inevitable in the field and a blessing in disguise. It is through the people of a community that form the strength they have and when social workers are working with citizens they must be utilized as assets to strengthen, advocate, and empower each other. I have tried to use these concepts to provide care on a case-by-case basis for individuals and families I have worked and volunteered for. An example of this was through my experience with victims of domestic violence at the Capital Area Response…
Social workers are often the "first responders" to social problems, which gives them a unique advantage when accessing local media and the press. This intimate knowledge of how clients are impacted by social issues allows the direct-service social worker to craft effective policy agendas, Jansson (2018). Social workers are the front line when it comes to the community social problems. If I may refer to Laura Chick, she was a model example of how social workers can be elected to serve in public office.…

Once a family is looking into emergency assistance, the Home Base Program will investigate their claim and determine eligibility for shelter placement. If the family is eligible for other housing options, they will not get placed into one of their shelters immediately, as they are not priority at the time. A key point to emphasize to families is that entering a shelter does not guarantee them a stable apartment. They must still do their part to continue searching for a permanent home, and stable income. Subsidy programs in the city are available and families can remain in shelters for a long period of time.…
Social workers at RPCI assist patients, their family members, and staff in many ways.

Mental Health Waiver: WISE The Mental Health Waiver, also known as Working for Integration Support and Empowerment (WISE), is a waiver program that helps individuals with serious mental illness who are currently residing in an institutional setting, or are deemed eligible to reside in an institution, transition back into the community.

This waiver program gives recipients the option to live independently in the community while receiving the medical and psychiatric services they need. The state of Connecticut adopted this policy April 1st, 2009. This policy was enacted after research and the assessment of hundreds of nursing…

My field supervisor was out sick today so I get to experience a new area of the hospital today, the ICU. It was so interesting to see how differently the ICU social worker, Lynne, works in comparison to Jamie. There is a lot less patient interaction since the ICU patients are in much worse conditions and a majority of them were not even conscious. Lynne’s case load seems much more complicated as she works with families and other agencies.…
