This important book attaches real value to working with older people, challenging ageist practice and encouraging a skilled approach in social work students and practitioners.
Insightful, reflective, theoretically sound, and practically feasible. Rory Lynch’s polished attempt at the challenging topic of social work practice with older people is indeed an important update on the current plethora of unheralded and less readable practice guides. His is destined to get much mileage in both the local and international practice arena.
Hugely insightful and highlights the importance of work with older people and the challenges social workers face in this growing sector.
Not a social work course
A useful book for both UG & PG students. All aspects of working with older people are covered. Useful case studies and reflective questions. It needs to be up dated however to reflect the PCF.
Excellent book. Very good on reflective practice and self awareness in working with older people.
Excellent book. Very good on self awareness.
I like this book a lot. Throughout the whole book it gives a good sense of values and clearly supports the person-centred approach.
This book gives an excellent understanding of the needs of older people and how they should be approached and met.
