Description
Summary:Leading administrators in health care provide helpful insights into how they made the successful transition from social worker to health care manager. A significant number of hospital social work managers have moved to broader management responsibilities in health care settings over the past decade, and the contributors explore the issues involved in this phenomenon. Learn how their social work backgrounds helped and impeded their career moves, what adjustments they had to make, what new skills they had to develop, and what changes they suggest in the structure of social work education to better facilitate a broader application of social work knowledge and skills to alternate careers.
