The Approved Social Worker's Guide to Mental Health Law, Paperback Book

The Approved Social Worker's Guide to Mental Health Law Paperback

Part of the Post-Qualifying Social Work Practice series

Paperback

Description

The move from Mental Health Social Worker to the role of Approved Social Worker requires a detailed grasp of the law in practice.

This book bring key elements of the legislation, Code of Practice, Memorandum, Government Circulars and relevant case law and policy, together into one text.

It will be invaluable to anyone wishing to become an ASW and their assessors, who have previously had to refer to a variety of sources in order to achieve a thorough understanding of relevant points of law and practice.

Written in an accessible style and supported by exercises, case studies and checklists, the book provides a clear guide to the law relevant to the practice of an Approved Social Worker, as well as anticipating any changes which would come with the proposed new mental health legislation.

Although written for social workers studying for the Mental Health Social Work Award and their practice assessors, it will be a useful text for Approved Social Workers in practice and for other professionals working under the Mental Health Act 1983.
