Description

Risk in Social Work Practice explores the multifaceted dimensions of risk assessment and management within contemporary social work. This comprehensive volume gathers perspectives from established researchers and theorists across the UK, USA, New Zealand and Italy, each addressing critical risk-related challenges in professional practice. The book examines fundamental debates surrounding ethical decision-making, error prevention and the management of professional uncertainty. Contributors analyse how social workers navigate complex intersections of human behaviour, emotional factors, evidence-based reasoning and organisational constraints. Whether you are a practitioner grappling with difficult case decisions, an academic studying social work theory or a student developing professional competence, this Routledge publication provides essential insights into contemporary risk management approaches and the principles that guide responsible social work intervention.

Key Features

Risk in Social Work Practice brings together leading researchers and theorists from four countries, offering diverse international perspectives on contemporary risk management challenges.

The book addresses ethical dilemmas and decision-making frameworks that social work practitioners encounter when assessing and responding to risk in vulnerable populations.

Contributors examine how professional values, organisational systems and evidence-based practice inform approaches to risk within modern social work contexts.

This Routledge publication explores the challenges of professional uncertainty and error prevention, supporting reflective practice and informed intervention.

The volume combines theoretical analysis with practical applications, making it suitable for students, practitioners and academics in social work and related health professions.
