Question 2

Describe the five aspects of a complete social work assessment.

Accepted Answer

A complete social worker assessment must include five aspects. First, both the drug user and family member should be part of the assessment, particularly due to the strong relationship between parental users and children's subsequent use. Second, the assessment should be comprehensive including the assessment of biological, psychological, social, and spiritual components of the users' life. This ensures that an ecological view is taken of the situation and not just a one shot in time perspective. Third, the assessment should include exploration of familial factors. With strong relationships between parent and child, familial factors will greatly influence recovery. Fourth, exploration of varying levels and degrees of social integration will influence client success and support. Lastly, exploration of diversity-related factors will positively or negatively influence the work based on values, beliefs, practices, and myths.
