The St. Thomas University School of Social Work is opening a graduate level course in social work available to individuals currently with a Bachelor of Social Work degree. These individuals do not need to be accepted to the MSW program to enrol in the course.

 

SCWK-6073: Social Work in Health

 

The course, SCWK-6073: Social Work in Health Care introduces the multiple roles social workers play in health care delivery and explores challenges faced by social workers in these settings. Health care includes preventive, curative and palliative services and interventions that are delivered to individuals or populations.

 

The course highlights a multidimensional approach to health and describes the social determinants of health framework to link critical social work theory to health care practice. Legal and clinical issues social workers encounter within a complex and rapidly changing health care system will be explored.

 

Students will have an opportunity to explore health care policies and foundational clinical skills commonly used in advanced professional practice in hospitals, rehabilitation, family practice and long-term care.

 

Please note that this course is capped at 20 and priority will be given to current Master of Social Work students; however, there is capacity to enrol interested social workers from the community.

 

This course may be applied as a credit towards an MSW degree, if a student in the course later applies and is accepted into the MSW program at St. Thomas University.

 

SCWK-6073: Social Work in Health Care will be offered in the 2022 Fall Semester on Thursday afternoons from 1:30 pm to 4:30 pm.
