- Join Jessica, hospital social worker, as she engages "Mr. Olson," the father of a critically ill adolescent in the ICU. Jessica will attempt to build alliance with Mr. Olson, respond to his main concerns, and develop a follow-up plan that fits within the context of the stress/trauma he is currently experiencing.
I really appreciated how Jessica clarified her role for patient's father, how she never crossed over into giving medical advice, and her emphasis on being a true advocate for the family member.
My feet are pretty ugly.
Wow watching this video helps me to have greater confidence entering in the field of social work.
Gotta love role plays.....people are nasty in the real world and become dependent when they get admitted.
disliking the “oh gosh, i can only imagine” approach, but i’m also not sure what alternatives there are (beyond maybe “i’m sorry you experienced that”), so overall this was really helpful to watch
Great video, thank you. I'm just starting my MSW, and I'm so excited about it! My son was in the hospital the first year of his life, and while there were a few very helpful doctors and nurses, we did not have a social worker or anyone in the hospital who took this roll. Looking back it would have made our jobs so much easier, especially because of all the questions we had and after he was discharged there was so much that needed to be done, it was confusing. This conversation highlights so much of what people need when they are going through this, the understanding ear, the helpful advocate. Really great job, this should be a training video :)
Wow, you are very thorough & having amazing people skills :)
Wow, this is the most helpful video on CZcams.
Very helpful, thank you
Actually I wasn't sure if this is a training video or an assignment for an MSW program...
I really appreciate that Ray! Thank you for reaching out. I love hospital social work and glad the MSW program had us do these videos. Are you in the social work field? Thanks again!
I am a professor at USC in the MSW program. I would be very proud of you as my student. Well done!!
I just got done msw but i don't have any jobs😔
Universities are happy to take your money and make you think you're ready for the social work field, but they do not really prepare you for it.
Great informative video, thanks for uploading. I just have one question, shouldn't the son be consulted first on how often he wants his Dad (Mr Olson) to be contacted by the social worker? I'm from the UK, so not sure if its the same in the US, but i'm just thinking about laws, such as Mental Capacity Act and allowing people to make their own decisions, unless they (in this case the son) lacks capacity?
Thanks so much for your great question! In this case, you are right, the patient was vented/sedated and unable to communicate health wishes. At this point we would identify a surrogate decision-maker. Hopefully Jonathan will reach a point when his doctors deem that he, as you say, has capacity. At this point I would want to talk with Jonathan about who he would like involved in his medical care/discharge planning. Thanks very much for the question and for watching!
Jessica Markland Hi Jessica. Thanks for clarifying. Hope you can upload more videos like these, so interesting! :)
keep saying "Oh... gosh... to have hat experience when your son..." and "oh... gosh.. I can only imagine..." is not empathy
that's totally what i feel..
How would you have shown empathy?
Halp please
Well gosh
Patronizing and drinking in front of the client. Kind of rude.
