Social care practice in context book
My new book, Social Care Practice in Context arrived from the publishers, Palgrave Macmillan today. In it I argue that social care practice is an important aspect of social work; so many people see organising services as somehow less social work than doing psychological therapy or community work. But the interpesonal skills involved in social care are just as significant. Practitioners have to be receptive to and value the needs of carers and service users, to be committed their personal development, and promote continuity and connectedness with service users’ existing social networks.
