Medikų požiūris į socialinio darbuotojo vaidmenis reabilitacijos specialistų komandoje

Abstract

Medicininės reabilitacijos įstaigos pasižymi poreikiu dirbti komandomis, kompetentingomis spręsti sudėtingas ir kompleksines klientų problemas. Vienas svarbių šių komandų narių turėtų būti socialiniai darbuotojai, atliekantys daugelį išskiriamų socialinio darbo profesinių bei komandinių vaidmenų. Tyrimas atskleidė, kad socialinio darbuotojo dalyvavimas medicininės reabilitacijos komandoje jos nariams nėra aiškus, jis nepakankamai įtraukiamas į komandinį darbą, dažnai dirba individualiai. Medicinos specialistai labiausiai pastebi socialinio darbuotojo profesinį konsultanto vaidmenį

The specificity of rehabilitation agencies is the complexity of social and health problems. To solve those multiple problems a command is needed. Social workers should be one of important members in such command. They should act in different professional and command roles as none of them alone can effectively solve the problems they are working with. We can find different command roles in literature that are: shaper, implementer, completer, coordinator, team-worker, resource investigator, evaluator, plant. Professional social workers roles are: communicating worker, agent, protector, estimator, teacher, changing behaviour, mobilizer, consultant, community worker, service provider, record keeper, administrator. The aim of an article is to analize the roles of social workers in medical rehabilitation agency from the point of view of medics. To fulfil the aim a research was held in X rehabilitation agency. 64 medics participated in the research. Data has shown that medics emphasize social workers professional role of consultant. His participation in the command is not very clear, he is o[en not incorporated into command and usually works individually. Respondents do not think that social worker is an equal member in a command, but they think it should be. Only one social worker works in X rehabilitation agency. This fact does not let social worker to fully unclose and equally participate in the command
