    Theory In Social Care Practice

    Understanding the concept of theory as it relates to a specific service user group is paramount in social care practice in order for practitioners to understand behaviours, make appropriate assessment, plan and provide the highest possible level of care (Mullins, 2014). According to (Wadensten, 2006) theories exist to challenge current practice, create new approaches to practice and remodel the structure of rules and principles.

(Ryan, 2009) argues that the use of theories in practices enhances service users’ outcomes and creates changes. Theory explains the reason why an action has resulted in a particular…

This is in conjunction with the Care Act (2014), which states that support would be via ‘any person whom the adult asks the authority to involve or, where the adult lacks capacity to ask the authority to do that, any person who appears to the authority to be interested in the adult’s welfare’ (Care Act 2014: c23 p1 s9 (5)).

    As A Social Worker

    This was a hard movie for me to watch because I struggle with watching such overt racism. It disturbs me to see such unnecessary violence at the hands of the people we are supposed to trust to protect and serve us. I do not suffer from anxiety very often, but this movie made me very anxious. Seeing such brutality and people begging for their lives for no obvious reason is beyond something I can understand. Discrimination and racism, have always been hard for me to comprehend because I grew up in a very diverse neighborhood in Madison.…

    Carl Rogers Theory Of Social Work

    What a fulfilling ending to a beginning, I totally enjoyed this first part of practicum, although there was a setback in the beginning, I came through it, and so I can prove Carl Rogers (1961) theory in which he believes that if an individual attained self-actualisation they would be a fully functioning person living "the good life". By this, he means that the individual would have a positive healthy psychological outlook, trust their own feelings and have congruence in their lives between self and experience (Rogers 2004).

    Health Care Social Work Reflection

    My understanding of health care social work is that it is the process in which clients are assisted by a social worker in accessing care and education as it relates to their health. The social worker assesses the patient needs and advocates for the care that is pertinent to the patients’ medical, and physical well-being. According to Gehlert & Browne (2012), the foundation of social work in health care was based on the changes in the demographics of the population during the 19th and 20th centuries, along with attitudes about how the sick should be treated, including where treatment should occur, and attitudes towards the role of social and psychological factors in health. Social work in health care is inclusive of the provision of…
