But it’s the hospital goal to push people out as fast as possible. It’s usually premature and results in an unsafe discharge and high rate of rapid re-hospitalizations

Hello there, I have a question. 🙋🏼‍♀️Compared to the nurses and doctors how much patient contact do medical social workers have? Does it vary on each patient and their needs. Also, is there a lot of red tape and bureaucracy involved; this is a hypothetical question bc I’m guessing there has to be depending on insurances state versus private etc. I am a former psych nurse and have only worked in state hospitals and acute psych facilities which is going to be much different from a medical hospital without a psych unit. I am currently a senior as a BSW student.

Hi there! Thank you so much for asking. Medical social workers have just as much contact with patients as a nurses and doctors do. Sometimes even more, depending on the patient's psychosocial needs. It can also be dependent on the facility you work at. I think your experience as a psych nurse will be invaluable to you as you become a medical social worker. I think you would transition very well. I have also worked in a psych hospital, and there are several similarities to medical social work. " Red tape" is going to be dependent on where you work but it is always there. It just looks different. As a social worker, your strength will be on how creative you can get things done. I hope that helps!
