<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>"This third revised version of A Guide for Nursing Home Social Workers has included and updated the knowledge and information that social workers, regardless of their education and experience, need in the performance of their role. The book has been divided into six parts to help categorize the content: Social Work in Nursing Facilities; The Interdisciplinary Team; Nursing Facilities and Governing Oversights; Diagnosis, Treatment, and Care Issues; Ethics; and Community Liaisons. The first part, Social Work in Nursing Facilities, presents key informational topics that social workers may utilize in their day-to-day work, such as assessments, care planning, and documentation. Chapters in this part include case examples to help clarify the information. The second part, The Interdisciplinary Team, contains information about team meetings, room changes, staff training and in-services, and social work consultation. The social worker will find the content in these topic areas supportive and helpful. For example, in the chapter on room changes, there is a model that social workers may utilize to map out steps in making a decision for a resident room change"--<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>Praise for earlier editions: </b></p> <p><em>Beaulieu's book... clearly articulates what on-the-ground nursing home social work practice involves...
