Interprofessional Collaboration in Social Work Practice

Written primarily for social work students and practitioners, although having relevance across the wider range of stakeholders, this book explores the issues, benefits, and challenges that interprofessional collaborative practice can raise. Chapter-by-chapter the book will encourage the reader to critically examine the political, legal, social, and economic context of interprofessional practice. It also explores how social workers can work effectively and collaboratively with other professions while retaining their own values and identity.
