Description

The COVID-19 pandemic has shed fresh light on the ways that social media and digital technologies can be effectively harnessed to support relationship-based social work practice.

However, it has also highlighted the complex risks, ethics and practical challenges that such technologies pose.

This book helps practitioners and students navigate this complex terrain and explore and build upon its multiple opportunities.

It uses real-life examples to examine how practitioners can assess the impact of new technologies on their professional conduct and use them in a way that enhance public confidence and relationship-based practice.

The authors explore how digital technologies can support multiple areas of service including social work with children, families and adults, mental health social work, youth justice and working with online communities.

They also consider regulatory questions and provide a roadmap for good practice.
