Social Work Case Conference: July 13, 2017
The Joint Commission suggested that social workers engage in this activity several years ago. It is helpful for the social workers to problem-solve with peers in a non-judgmental setting.
Sometimes the act of peer problem-solving is difficult to accomplish in a large health system that offers a multi-disciplinary treatment setting.
The problem-solving will be offered from a social work perspective.
Target Audience
The target audience for this event is social workers and counselors.
Learning Objectives
Discuss a clinical case from start to finish, accurately reflecting the services provided.
Identify the process involved in presenting a clinical case synopsis.
Enhance professional competence by discussing alternate approaches to treatment, case management, and discharge planning.
