Opis

This is an excellent addition to the pocket book series; offering sound practical approaches to everyday assessments and real-life examples on how to deal with problematic situations when working in Adult Social Care ...I thoroughly recommend this book both as a key text for students and reference guide for practitioners. Liz Armitage, Newly Qualified Social Worker Assessments in Social Work is an engaging and informative read, addressing key legal and practice issues in adult social care in a succinct manner . It provides you with the tools to work creatively and collaboratively with service users, even within the increasing bureaucracy of modern social work. I would highly recommend it, and feel that it offers both the newly qualified, and more experienced practitioner, with the knowledge and skills needed to function with confidence and effectiveness in their social work role.
