.....ending skills. Ending skills allow social workers to successfully conclude working relationships with clients (Cournoyer, 2013, p. 477). Ending skills comprise of reviewing the process, a final evaluation, saying goodbye and sharing ending emotions, and finally recording closing summary (Cournoyer, 2013). Along with the ending skills, the author includes the four most common kinds that are referral, transferal, client discontinuation, and termination. The client discontinuation form differs from the others in that it is exclusively client initiated. Although it may seem simple to end a working relationship with a client, it may be difficult to accomplish because of the varying factors that comprise a working relationship.Just like ending a personal relationship, a working relationship may bring up feelings of loss and sadness, along with a myriad of other emotions. From the clients' perspective, the reactions may be even more intense. Clients share their personal lives, and at times make progress thanks to the assistance, feeling like they cultivated an environment of safety and vulnerability. Such outcomes make facing the reality of never having contact again hard to accept. For some clients, they may feel as though they lost...
Others may respond with anger or denial. Regardless of their reaction, exploration of these responses makes up a significant part of the ending process.
This is where the chapter transitions to the next phase of the ending process, 'Reviewing the Process' and invites clients to share any progress made, any significant events/exchanges. This is the phase where both parties can truly reflect on what was accomplished or not and see how such moments make both parties feel. Even if little progress was made, it is always important to see what was missed or what needs improvement to grow and develop. While this step is important, it is more important to highlight the strengths and highlights of the sessions to provide a foundation in the future for potential growth/progress.
This can be done through expressing pleasure in relation to any positive changes the client underwent. Going back to examining all sides to the sessions, if the client does not make any progress, or still has issues to resolve, this would also be appropriate to reflect on to enable awareness for the client for what needs to be done working with someone else. The main goal for the use of ending skills to enable clients…
Social Work Comparing micro macro approaches Social Work from Different Perspectives In this paper, we will assess the roles and duties which a social worker can provide from an individual and through a community basis to any other individual or community. We will also examine the advantages and disadvantages in both of the work types and then prefer our chosen methodology supported by valid reasoning. Finally, we will list our current capabilities to
Social Work Exercise The imaginary recording helped me to examine the language that I use commonly, and listen for embedded biases. I noticed that I assumed that the client could hear me and see me, rather than acknowledge the fact that the client could be deaf or visually impaired. It might be helpful to establish immediately whether the client requires assistive technologies when understanding the types of services we provide. I also
Identify each phase of the GIM Model that you are engaged in. Empathy: “Weddings can be hard because they’re an occasion to pause and reflect how your own romantic relationships are.” “It’s never easy suddenly learning there’s a family member you didn’t know about.” Positive Regard: “You were brave just to attend the family reunion, let alone to see your sister the next day.” “That’s wonderful you decided to write to your uncle.” Congruence: “I
Vision Social workers contribute to a just society by being compassionate and caring individuals that provide the kind of support and assistance that people need in times of need. They work with children, families, and adults to get them help in terms of food, shelter, get them into training programs, and even refer them to services to help with employment (Coady & Lehmann, 2016). They are the first lines of assistance
They were followed in 1936 by the Harlem River Houses, a more modest experiment in housing projects. And by 1964, nine giant public housing projects had been constructed in the neighborhood, housing over 41,000 people [see also Tritter; Pinckney and Woock]. The roots of Harlem's various pre 1960's-era movements for African-American equality began growing years before the Harlem Renaissance itself, and were still alive long after the Harlem Renaissance ended.
Social Media as a Potential Tool in Conflict Resolution: A Facebook Perspective Humans are social animals, and will usually dwell together in communities, based on their beliefs, resources, preferences, needs, risks, and a number of other conditions which may be present and common, affecting the identity of the participants and their degree of cohesiveness. Community In sociology the word community is often used to refer to a group that is organized around common
