St
Luke's social work department offers help with the practical,
financial and social needs of patients, families and carers.
Three
social work assistants work alongside the Hospice At Home
team and see patients at the Day Hospices and in the community.
They liaise with other professionals and agencies to access
a wide range of relevant services and resources. St Luke's
social workers work on the in-patient unit to help with plans
for discharge and to provide general support to patients and
their families and carers.
The
social work team is involved in education and training education
and training and welcomes students from the SYNEM consortium
for full-time placements.
