The Social Worker role recognises that in the process of admission and treatment in hospital the patient experiences a degree of loss of control and independence. It is in this context that social work takes a central role in the hospital goal of fostering the psychological, emotional and social well-being of patients.

At all times you, the Social Worker will provide a service to both the patient and the organisation and our service to patients is in identifying and dealing with psychosocial problems that arise as a result of, or that are contributing to problems in adjusting to the crisis of illness, treatment and hospitalisation.

This imperative role as the Social Worker will see you act as part of the multidisciplinary health team will provide crisis intervention, psychosocial assessment, general counselling, advocacy, case management, therapeutic and grief/loss counselling, and complex discharge planning.
