It offers a new chapter on safeguarding and has been updated to reflect current course requirements: - Part I introduces the theory, policy and legislation which influences social work contexts - Part II identifies core elements of practice, for effective interviewing, assessment, planning and intervention Written by experienced and respected authors, this book will help readers understand the diverse experiences of later life, leading to positive and informed students and practitioners of social work.
