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.
