The Social Worker assesses a patient’s and family’s ability to cope with psychosocial, emotional, economic, environmental and cultural factors that come with terminal illness and death.

The Social Worker also conducts individual counseling and crisis intervention and offers input on fiscal, legal and health care decisions in support of the patient’s and family’s spiritual and cultural beliefs. After death, the Social Worker provides bereavement information, education and support for the patient’s family members and/or caregivers.
