dc.description | The roles and tasks of social work are always up for grabs, always the subject of discussion, debate and disagreement. Different people have very different views about what social workers are doing and should be doing, and how these responsibilities and functions fit into the broader range of social policies and welfare services – for example, how they link with health and education, ‘welfare to work’, ‘joined-up’ inter-agency and inter-professional working, all the systems and procedures that are meant to ensure high-quality services and ‘value for money’. Social work practitioners, managers, local authority councillors, central government ministers, civil servants, journalists, academics, service users, people who have been refused a service, people who provide care for relatives or friends – all will have a view about what social work is or should be, and probably several views. Their own expectations may not always be consistent, and then there will be tensions and sometimes outright conflict with what others think. | - |
