In order to not become a victim of work-related stress, social workers must participate in self-care. According to Kirst-Ashman and Hull (2015), “A great concern in social work practice is burnout, a state of physical, emotional, and mental exhaustion that results from constant or repeated emotional pressure associated with an intense, long-term involvement with people” (pp. 517). Therefore, it is important for social workers to manage their stress by finding various ways to either reduce or keep it under control so that it does not become an issue. “Stress management can actually repair the damage caused by stress and allow individuals to live satisfying, healthy lives,” (Lenz, 2010, pp.69).
