This service offers confidential advice and education to Western Health patients, their family members and/or carers across all three Western Health hospitals. Social workers provide assistance in relation to issues of emotional adjustment to health conditions and/or the hospitalisation experience. Social workers may utilize a range of approaches including individual counselling, family sessions and/or group-work. Social workers assess for a broad range of psychosocial needs in order to plan for appropriate discharge and may provide information about, and referral to, a range of community services. Specific assistance with arranging transfer to residential care facilities is provided by the Social Work Aged Care Team.
