商品簡介
Social Work Case Management: Case Studies from the Frontline by Michael J. Holosko is written by social workers, for social workers, and presents a framework to practice social work case management in a variety of health and human service organizations. It is the first case management book written from a social work perspective, offering a social work case management model, and built around the unifying principles of the profession (person in environment, strengths based work, ecological perspective). Social Work Case Management: Case Studies from the Frontline is organized into three Parts. Part 1 presents the contextual chapters that are the framing or scaffolding for all of the material presented in the rest of the text. Part 2 of the text presents 22 chapters all written by social workers currently practicing case management in a wide variety of settings in Canada and the United States. Part 3 gleans across the text's 22 case example chapters and summarizes their main qualitative findings. The book then uses the portal of learning competencies to dig down further into the educational requirements needed for BSW and MSW curricula. Social Work Case Management: Case Studies from the Frontline is intentionally written in a candid and informed conversational tone to engage readers more meaningfully in the content. It also includes a glossary of 101 commonly used case management terms for students and practitioners to have at their fingertips, to better understand this content which grows in its nuances, and complexities each day, as our external practice worlds continue to change.
