Social Workers are extremely wonderful people. We docs need them! There is usually one on every floor of the hospital. They know the important stuff like what medicare/medicaid reemburses and the programs available to help poor people get good care and pay for that care.
Most schools offer a choice between a clinical concentration and a organizational concentration. I suspect the SWs you're talking about are of the latter variety. :)
I don't know, They are talking to the patients about these things, not talking to the doctors. THey have to find out what the patients know, what they need, it's all clinical.
Sounds great! And I've always been of the opinion that those little thoughts from nowhere should be heeded. I had one recently that said "Y'know, science was a REALLY dumb thing for you to study in college. What happened to the music, man?"
And (with luck and an accomodating admissions office) I'll be back in school Fall 2005 for music therapy. Hey, I knew that ptoential Psych minor would be useful someday for somethign other than self-diagnosis! :D
