Hospital Social Work introduces the reader to the world of medicine and social work as seen through the eyes of actual social workers. An essential reference for both students and professionals. Over 100 social workers in dozens of hospitals were interviewed to provide the reader with first-hand experiences and discussions of practice principles, policy considerations, and theoretical treatments to provide each chapter with a unique blend of theory and practice. Joan Beder, a professor of social work and a practicing social worker, recently noted an apparent lack of empirical discussion of the actual role and day-to-day functioning of the medical social worker. Hospital Social Work is the result, a unique supplemental text for both studying and practicing medical social workers.

"The book is about social work interventions in the different units of the hospital, from the history of social work in the hospital setting to the different units of the hospital, including emergency room, medical intensive care units, and discharge planning. The book is important because it is about the different interventions of the social worker with patients and families."--Amazon.com.
