An essential overview of the core skills needed by every
social work practitioner
Developing Evidence-Based Generalist Practice Skills
features contributions from top scholars in social work practice,
presenting essential information for the ethical and effective
practice of social work. This clearly written guide provides
step-by-step guidance for using evidence-based practice to make
joint decisions with clients about assessment and treatment options
through a careful consideration of the best available research
evidence, the client’s preferences and values, professional ethical
standards, and other key issues.
Comprehensive and straightforward, this book addresses
foundational practice skills expected of all social work
practitioners, including:
* Evidence-based practice
* Trauma-informed practice
* Interviewing skills
* Problem identification, contracting, and case planning
* Case management
* Advocacy
* Crisis intervention
* Practice evaluation
* Termination, stabilization, and continuity of care
Each chapter begins with an overarching question and ‘what if’
scenarios, and ends with a set of suggested key terms, online
resources, and discussion questions. Designed as a foundation-level
social work education text for undergraduate and graduate students
in social work programs, this book meets the Council on Social Work
Education’s (CSWE) Educational Policy and Accreditation Standards
(EPAS) for a thorough and up-to-date presentation of core social
work skills featuring in-depth scholarship.
