Ethics and values in social work

"This book extends social workers' understanding of how and why ethical problems and dilemmas arise in their everyday practice, contributing to the development of skills necessary for ethical reflection and analysis. The author argues that this will assist social workers in a practical way by reducing unnecessary feelings of guilt and anxiety when making difficult ethical decisions." "Codes of ethics from different countries are compared and their usefulness as a guide to practitioners is discussed. Codes of practice and procedures for access to records, user participation and complaints are also considered - both as more concrete ways of clarifying and protecting the rights and interests of service users and also as means of controlling users and practitioners. Case studies from trainee and experienced social workers illustrate the discussion, and practical exercises are included to encourage rellection on practice dilemmas." "Ethics and Values in Social Work combines a sound grasp of theoretical issues with a clear focus on policy and practice in the 1990s. It will be of great use to students, teachers and practitioners in the current climate of change and upheaval in the welfare professions."--Jacket.
