Care Management
Tasks and Workloads
AvBryan Glastonbury,Joan Orme
Häftad, Engelska, 1993
499 kr
Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
The book argues that care management could create fundamental changes in the operation of British social services departments, but that it also has embodied in it the basic values of the social work profession. It explores how the job of the front line social worker and line manager in social service departments might be changed by the implementation of care management. In doing this it highlights the need from the outset for basic workload strategies to ensure that care really is managed effectively.
Gender and Community Care
Social Work and Social Care Perspectives
AvJoan Orme,Jo Campling
Häftad, Engelska, 2000

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
Are there differences in the way that men and women care? Are the care needs of women and men perceived as being different? What do we mean by community? Is being cared for always a positive experience? How can social workers and social care workers work positively with individual differences?Much has been written about both the formal and informal provision of community care, and women's role within this. However, less attention has been paid to the users of community care services. Usually described in terms of being old, disabled, or experiencing mental health problems, service users are assumed to fit into homogeneous groups, their race and gender made invisible by the needs or problems they present.This book takes the experiences of users of community care services as its starting point. Drawing on feminist theory it documents the gender assumptions behind social work practice and community care policies, and reveals how these impact on women and men as both providers and recipients of community care. In doing so it provides an outline of the developments in practice and policy, and illustrates how particular constructions of gender have influenced both. This important text challenges assumptions that caring is always a positive experience for women and men.To conclude, a comprehensive overview of the literature about user groups is provided. This informs the author's argument that practitioners in social work and social care have to be attentive in their interventions to the way that identities are constructed and experienced, in order to ensure that services reflect both caring and justice.
Care Ethics
New Theories and Applications

Skickas inom 10-15 vardagar
The ethic of care has developed to become a body of theory that has expanded from its roots in social psychology to many other disciplines in the social sciences as well as the humanities. This work on care has informed both theory and practice by generating complex accounts of care ethics for multiple and intersecting kinds of relationships, and for a variety of domains and contexts. Its application now extends from the moral to the political realm, from personal to public relationships, from the local to the global, from feminine to feminist virtues and values, and from issues of gender to issues of power and oppression.The developments in the theories and applications of care ethics over the past few decades make this book an appropriate and timely publication. It includes chapters by authors who are developing or expanding theories of care ethics and also by those who work on applying and extending insights from care ethics to practices and policies in personal and institutional settings. Care Ethics provides readers from different disciplines and professional groups with a substantial number of new theories and applications from both new and established authors. This book was originally published as two special issues of Ethics and Social Welfare.

"This is an ambitious book. It aims at nothing less than a comprehensive account of the state of the art of social work research internationally and an intellectually original statement that will help to define and shape social work research. Those with a serious interest in social work research will agree that this is a major undertaking and one that should put social work research 'on the map'." -
Ian Sinclair, University of York, UK
"This terrific Handbook provides an essential map for navigating the complex currents of social work research today. It resists polemical and simplistic binaries to chart a course that emphasizes diversity, pluralism and sensitivity to political contexts in many featured exemplars. As key chapters note, inherent tensions at the heart of social work itself are mirrored in current debates about the purposes and methods of social work research. Rather than patch over differences, the volume invites us to understand historical roots of unresolvable tensions, and live with them. The international scope of the volume is unique--scholars from more than a dozen different countries were involved --and its broad scope counters the tendency toward parochialism of much North American literature. The Handbook should be essential reading for students and academics." -
Catherine Riessman, Boston University, USA
The SAGE Handbook of Social Work Research provides a comprehensive, internationally-focused account of leading social work research, offering an original and defining statement on contemporary theory and practice within the field. The groundbreaking Handbook engages critically with the nature and role of social work research and evaluation in contemporary societies around the globe, and asks four key questions:
- What is the role and purpose of social work research?
- What contexts shape the practice and purpose of social work research?
- How can we maximise the quality of the practice of social work research?
- How can the aims of social work in its varied domains be met through social work research?
Ranging over local, national and international issues, and exploring questions of theory and practice, this is a diverse and constructively organized overview of the field. It will quickly be recognized as a benchmark in the expanding field of social work research, setting the agenda for future work in the arena.
