Social workers
It has been suggested that with the rise
of the hospice movement and its philosophy
of holistic support in the 1970s,
social work was placed ideally to play an
important role in the interdisciplinary
palliative care team by developing conceptualizations
and practice models within
psychosocial palliative care (Germain,
1986; Rodway, 1986). However, it appears
that rather than being an equal team
member and the social worker practising
in his/her own right, he/she is perceived
as an 'internal consultant' or 'resource'
supporting the nurses and doctors
(Abramson and Mizrahi, 1996; Monroe,
1998), a role which is not collaborative
nor equality based.
