Social Work Experience, By Mary Ann Suppes And Carolyn Cressy Wells

271 Words2 Pages

Numerous times, we see people and we think the worst thing first. Luckily for this week’s case study in the book, The Social Work Experience, An Introduction to Social Work and Social Welfare, by Mary Ann Suppes and Carolyn Cressy Wells, LaTonya was graciously given the opportunity to remedy her problem instead of the social worker just giving up on her and removing the kids. When Lauren offered LaTonya the help she needed to make decent choices, she empowered her to be the driver of her own success. In my experience we tend to be more successful when we feel as though we fixed a debauched situation instead of being made to fix the situation. Although, socio-economic status seems directly related to the amount of problems with neglect,

    To choose which one is best would matter on what the goal is and who is being served. They both have the goal of getting someone housed but rapid rehousing is faster as housing is the main concern. PSH may take a little longer as they are also working with the person's health issues as well. For similar reasons, the time spent with the client is different as well with Rapid re-housing spending at most 6 months with a client where as PSH could spend a lot of time in the program as it isn't time sensitive. With a shorter amount of time, social workers in the Rapid rehousing have a short window to do social work, which is fine as most case management focus on getting people into housing and not much else.

    The Impact of Social Media: An Analysis Asking users of social media to completely obliterate all of their current accounts would not be plausible. In an effort to convey messages about the impact of social media, Amy Webb and authors Ryan M. Milner, and Whitney Phillips took to the web, writing about pertinent issues that they felt were necessary. Milner and Phillip’s use of pathos to inflict guilt and remorse about the way a symbol in social media can change was just short of Webb’s portrayal of the feeling for desire, safety and protection surrounding her article about protecting young adults from social media.

  • Barbra Larosa's Case Study Of Almeada And Baby Anne

    As I read the case study of Almeada and baby Anne, I was inspired by her case manager Barbra LaRosa, she provided social care and became the “bridge” between Almeade and the systems. One function of bridging is to narrow the gap between the services being offered and the needs of the individuals who are receiving those services. (Woodside, M. R. (2015). An Introduction to the Human Services, 8th Edition) Ms. LaRosa applied social care to Almeada while she was pregnant with baby Anne, she recognized Almeada's problems in living and since she worked at the school, and Almeada had not returned from summer break, she reached out to her to see what was going on and learn more about her life.

    Prior to taking the Elders course, I had limited interactions with older adults and was not aware about the services that are needed for this specific population. Throughout the course, I was exposed to many readings, lectures and guest speakers that enabled me to gain copious amounts of new information that gave me a deeper look into the lives of older adults. I realized the importance of social workers’ understanding, and familiarizing themselves with policies that affect this population. Throughout social work schooling, students are exposed to many social theories, but this class specifically focused on the ones that directly apply to older adults. According to McInnis-Dittrich (2014), Social constructionism is a theory that people of all

  • Essay On Child Neglect

    806 Words  | 4 Pages

    This is very interesting to me because a lot of people equate poverty with neglect and this is not the case, just because you may be poor doesn’t mean that you are a neglectful parent, there are children that live below the poverty level and their parents love them and nurture them and care for them better than a child that lives in a million dollar home. So just because you have money it doesn’t necessarily mean that you are caring for your child, you may not clean or cook or know how to nurture your own child and that is a form of neglect. Now because a family is living in poverty the stress of that may cause neglect, and that is the economic theory of child neglect, so there are some families that live in poverty and are perfectly happy still loving and nurturing their children, and there are some families that can’t handle the poverty that in turn causes stress and in some cases may result in neglect, that is an example of that fine line. There are many
