School social worker: Taicang City has been vigorously promoting school social workers in the past two years, and the city leaders have taken the lead in establishing a leading group for school social work in the city. This year, in the city's junior and senior high schools, according to the ratio of "one school and one social worker", social work agencies will send social workers to enter the school. At present, school social workers in various places are stationed in the form of "one school and one social worker".
For social workers, they need to have a strong ability to work independently. In terms of work content, at present, school social workers mainly connect with the moral education department, and the services carried out are mainly individual cases (partial psychological counseling). The second is student theme activities, home-school communication services, student volunteer cultivation, etc., and there are fewer groups. It should be noted that the requirements for school social workers vary from school to school, even within the same city. For example, in some schools in Zhuhai, social workers are undertaken by psychological counseling companies, and as soon as the social worker joins the company, the school informs the social worker that it only needs to do a good job in psychological counseling for the students, and does not care about anything else. Another school in Zhuhai, which is undertaken by a social work agency, needs to assist the school in handling the work of the Moral Education Department, carrying out various themed class meetings, conducting home visits, and opening cases. In Foshan, school social workers are responsible for psychological services (psychological counseling, case counseling, group counseling), as well as volunteer services, student cadre training, large-scale activities, home-school services, and moral education administration.
The good thing is that many school social workers have regular training and supervision support every month, so they can learn and do while facing psychological counseling and individual cases. For example, the school social worker in Taicang City has a very strong supervision and support team. For example, a friend of the school social worker of the psychological consulting company said that the company has more than 30 psychological supervisors. The working hours of school social workers are basically the same as those of teachers, and some school social workers need to work overtime frequently, and most of them work less overtime. Depending on the institution, some school social workers have winter and summer vacations, and some do not, which needs to be asked in advance. The pressure on school social workers is mainly on individual cases, especially the increasing number of students' psychological problems, which requires school social workers to have more psychological counseling skills. How to gain students' trust, analyze students' psychological problems, and provide counseling and counseling are the challenges of school social work professional services. In terms of salary, as far as I know, it is generally between 5-6 thousand.
Medical Social Worker:The work content of medical social workers generally needs to do the following tasks: ward patrol service, understanding the patient's ** and psychological conditions. Casework services are mostly social assistance cases, or emotional counseling, discharge and resettlement, assistance in applying for medical insurance in other places, etc. Then there are activities (holiday care activities, ward theme activities, medical care stress reduction activities, public welfare care activities such as micro-wishes, etc.). On this basis, the focus of each hospital is different. For example, a social worker in a hospital in Zhuhai will require the social worker to pay attention to the work of resource linkage and help the client solve the financial assistance. Most hospitals have their own resources, and MSWs can link up with the hospital's resources to help clients apply for financial assistance. In addition, with the help of the institutional platform to link caring enterprises, social workers should also know how to develop and cultivate volunteers. For example, the social worker of a hospital in Hainan needs to assist with certain administrative work, and focus on psychological and rescue services. At present, the development of medical social workers in Shanghai is the best, and Shenzhen has also developed very early, if you want to understand and learn, you can pay attention to medical social workers in these two regions.
The pressure on medical social workers is mainly on financial assistance cases, and it is often difficult for social workers to solve the financial problems of the clients they serve. Service users sometimes see social workers as the last hope, and some medical social workers are prone to feelings of powerlessness. Sometimes, when medical social workers encounter difficult problems with patients' families, fortunately, doctor-patient conflicts are usually intervened by a special department, and there is no need for medical social workers to intervene too much. Medical social workers are directly hired by hospitals, and then social workers from social work agencies are stationed. The salary and benefits of hospital direct employment will be better, but the requirements are also high, and it is more difficult for ordinary social workers to enter, and it is said that the salary can be more than 8,000. The salaries of medical social workers in social work organizations vary, ranging from more than 4,000 for ordinary social workers and more than 6,000 for social workers.
Anti-drug social worker:The work of anti-drug social workers is similar in different places. The first priority is to follow up on the client's control (e.g., urine test, hair collection). During key security periods, follow-up is required on a daily basis, and on a regular basis, it is maintained on a semi-annual, monthly, or weekly basis, depending on the level of risk. The second is to help and educate special groups, such as assistance and condolences for poor families, and employment training for re-employed people. The service work is mostly case-based, mainly for drug addicts. In Zhuhai, all the clients are directly listed as individual cases, after all, there is a possibility of preventing relapse.
In Guangzhou, each social worker was responsible for more than 17 cases. Then there are anti-drug publicity activities, which need to go into the community every month to carry out various anti-drug publicity activities, and there are a lot of them. The main work pressure of anti-drug social workers is that most of the people they face are not very cooperative, there are quibbles and deceptions, and a small number of them are easily emotional. Some of the clients also suffer from various diseases or have mental disorders, which makes anti-drug social workers feel psychologically stressful when they provide services. There are two ways to hire anti-drug social workers, most of them are social work agencies that undertake projects and hire social workers, and some are directly hired by UNODC. In terms of salary, it varies from place to place. For example, in Guangzhou, the number of social workers is about 4-5 thousand, and the number of directors is 6-7 thousand. In Zhuhai, depending on the qualification, there are 3-5 thousand. In previous years, there was an assessment bonus, but it has stopped in the past two years.
