dc.descriptionThis book can be used by social work professional both as a textbook and as a clinical resource. Considering that most social workers do not receive training in medication during their social work program, it provides an excellent practice resource for clinicians in the field. In Part I, general information is included that will prepare social workers to address the needs of clients who are taking medication. The use of medication is viewed as part of social work practice, and strategies for understanding its use are highlighted. Each chapter features a case study that exemplifies common practice principles. Societal myths and the obstacles they create are reviewed and how medications work, how they are related to brain function, and the role of neurochemicals are explored. An explanation of the difference between generic and brand names is presented along with medical terminology that is used in prescribing medications and in health care records. Basic rules for monitoring medication and compliance are provided along with tips for treatment planning and documentation-
