A social worker employed by a retirement home is
approached by a client for help in establishing a
recycling program in the facility. The social worker
decides to cohost a meeting with the client to
discuss the idea with other residents. What is the
MOST likely reason for this approach?
A. Antagonizing administration could be
dangerous.
B. Legitimizing the residents' concerns may be
helpful.
C. Helping residents start new relationships is
important.
D. Sharing leadership is very effective with groups.
- answer D. Legitimizing the residents' concerns
may be helpful.
By sharing leadership with the resident (key D),
the social worker is supporting the resident's skill
development as well as promoting positive group
dynamics. Options (A) and (B)
,draw conclusions without substantiated
information. While the potential for beginning new
relationships (C) exists, it is not the MOST likely
reason for the co-facilitation.

about as the child gets older?

B. Social anxiety in middle age

D. Negative social interactions with peers
, The MOST strongly linked long-term effect of

(C) and later social anxiety (D) are not directly
linked to attachment difficulties.

worker because of poor hygiene, sleeping in class,
and stealing food from the cafeteria. What should
the social worker assess for FIRST?
A. A conduct disorder

A school social worker meets with parents of a
child who has recently completed treatment for
cancer. The child's physician is recommending that
, the child return to school as soon as possible, but
the parents believe that more time at home would
be beneficial. What should the social worker do
NEXT?
A. Advocate for the parents to keep the child at
home
B. Explore the reasons for the parents' beliefs
C. Obtain the child's perspective on the situation
D. Refer the parents and child for family therapy -
answer B. Explore the reasons for the parents'
beliefs
Before taking action, the social worker should
acknowledge and validate the parents' concerns
and explore the events and emotions that have led
to these
concerns (key B). Advocating that the child stay at
home (A) is not supported by the physician's
recommendation. Although the social worker may
eventually want to obtain the child's perspective
(C), this would not be the NEXT step. There are no
indications of family dysfunction that would
warrant family therapy (D).
