"Comprehensive, readable book…Integration of NOS and QAA benchmarks help students and assessors to understand and chart learning. A very valuable resource" (Practice Learning Co-ordinator, NEWI)
Helpful overview, exploring different areas of practice
Clear evaluation of Inter professional Social Work.
A good examination of the opportunities and challenges. This provides a coherent approach to the subject and assists learners to develop their own thinking and make links to contemporary practice.
Good introduction to collaborative working
This is a very useful introductory text book on partnership working for undergraduate social work students.
This is a relevant title which maintains practical approaches to collaborative practice in social work. It is important because it points out the need for multidisiplinary awareness and understanding, especially as an introductory element to any health and social care student.
This book gives a good overview of the current literature and thoughts about collaborative approaches. Especially chapter 5 is for my context (Master SEN) interesting. The book offers rich back ground information. The drawback for us is its focus on - just - the UK context.
This book provides a very good overview of multi-agency working and applies it to different settings. I found the chapter on the 'justice context' useful.
I found this book particularly well structured for the BA Social Work students, and insightful in supporting lecture preparation, I have included this text on the recommended reading list for the Interprofessional Practice course.
Excellent book. Easy to read and understand. Students have found it very useful in gaining an in depth understanding of interprofessional social work and the problems and barriers that they will have to come across when working with other professionals.
Excellent practical text which transcends academia and practice, making it highly recommended for social work students on placement who are grappling with the complexities of collaborative working.
Useful introduction
Good reference book for students, newly qualified social workers and practitioners in the field.
Useful introduction to multiagency working and collaborative practice
A useful resource for thinking about working across organisations.
This is a really useful book and helps the reader consider the dilemmas in multi-agency working and how these can be overcome to good effect. As every major inquiry has identified failings in interprofessional working then this is recommended reading for all students.
Issues raised are clearly explained
Essential when looking at collaborative working
Provides and excellent and clear understanding of collaborative approaches. Feedback from students is that this is one of the better texts they have come across for understanding this topical area
