Description

Social Media and Social Work: Navigating Implications and Opportunities for Practice explores how social media and digital technologies can support relationship-based social work practice. The authors examine real-life examples to assess the impact of new technologies on professional conduct and identify ways to enhance public confidence and relationship-based practice. The book considers various areas of service, including social work with children, families, adults, mental health, youth justice, and online communities. It also addresses regulatory questions and provides a roadmap for good practice. By harnessing digital technologies effectively, practitioners can build upon their professional conduct and improve the quality of services they provide. This book offers practical guidance for those working in social care, including students and experienced professionals, to navigate the complex terrain of social media and digital technologies in social work practice.
