Recenzii

The Oxford Textbook of Palliative Social Work is an excellent resource for all clinicians who have the privilege of caring for seriously ill patients and their families. We recommend it as a necessary resource for every palliative care and hospice team, and we suggest it as an important reference for all social workers and social work trainees practicing in health care. Additionally, the book provides valuable information for leaders of health care systems and for policy makers who are preparing to face the challenge of creating large-scale interventions to meet the needs of this patient population.
This comprehensive textbook emphasizes the important role of the social worker in palliative care and sets the standards for the practice of palliative social work...The book will be an essential tool for all practioners and all those involved in palliative care.
This is an impressive book and very reseonably priced. It covers the field of palliative and social work and helps set the standard. It will be invaluable for anyone training in palliative social work...it will also be a useful refernce for other members of the palliative care family, be they doctors or nurses or other allied health professionals, to gain a better understanding of what palliative social work is all about.
This comprehensive compendium will provide a useful tool for palliative care social workers. It will also inform anyone, whether or not working in palliative care, about the value of social work at the end of life.
Oxford Textbook of Palliative Social Work s an indispensable resource for all social workers who share in the care for this very special population of patients and their loved ones; its a beautiful and valuable compendium of knowledge about theoretical and practical issues for social workers which help beginners as well as experienced specialists in their practice.
