Abstract: | Social work practice in health care must change to better meet the needs of individuals and their families as the system of care changes from an acute care focus to a community based focus and as individuals seek more active participation in their own care decisions. Practitioners and educators must renew their partnership to create a practice based on the needs of individuals to move most effectively through a more complex system of care and back home again. A paradigmatic shift can redefine social work in health care for the future. Renewed leadership with vision is required. |
