Peter Beresford - Palliative Care, Social Work and Service Users
2007 | ISBN: 1843104652 | English | 268 pages | PDF | 1 MB

This unique book provides a rare look at social work and palliative care from the perspective of service users. It is the first to investigate specialist palliative care social work from this viewpoint. Drawing on new original research, the authors examine service users' experiences of social work and palliative care, tracking their journeys through it, exploring the care they receive and the effects of culture and difference through their first hand comments and ideas. The writers link service users' critiques with broader debates and developments in social work and palliative care and consider the implications of the book's findings for the formation of policy and practice and for future professional education and training. A groundbreaking text, "Palliative Care, Social Work and Service Users" is of particular value to social work professionals, palliative care workers, educators, researchers and policy makers.
