Social work

The Primary Care Social Work Department provides short term intervention to individuals, families and groups. It works with service-users to improve quality of life through advocacy, empowerment, problem-solving and promoting positive change. Service-users are those with limited social supports with a significant health concern and complex social situation including: those with diminished capacity who are at risk, self-neglect, domestic violence, social isolation, adjusting to a life-limiting illness, future care planning, short-term emotional support, carer issues, parental support, relationship difficulties and life-changing situations such as palliative diagnoses, bereavement or trauma. Primary Care Social Workers carry out psychosocial assessments and interventions are planned according to the need of the service-user. Service-users are contacted directly by the social worker usually by telephone in the first instance. Some groups are facilitated and are organised according to service-user need and personnel capacity.
