This is the eBook of the printed book and may not include any media, website access codes, or print supplements that may come packaged with the bound book.   Everything you need to translate theory into the field/practicum experience   The Practicum Companion for Social Work: Integrating Class and Field Work is the ideal companion for your first field/practicum experience. Filled with practical applications, in-depth case scenarios, and thought-provoking examples, it guides you through your placement while reinforcing the linkages between classroom learning, practice behaviors, and competencies. You will learn about practice with individuals, families, groups, communities, and organizations within the concepts of planned change, encompassing engagement, assessment, intervention, evaluation, termination, and follow-up.   Every chapter in the Fourth Edition reflects and integrates the core competencies in the 2015 Educational Policy and Accreditation Standards (EPAS) set by the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE). Additional case studies offer even more opportunities for you to connect theory to real-life practice. Enhanced values and ethics material, detailed learning plans, and additional cultural competence, safety, and humility content help prepare you for success in the field.
