This first-of-its-kind textbook surveys rehabilitation and vocational programs aiding persons with disabilities in remote and developing areas in the U.S. and abroad. Contributors discuss longstanding challenges to these communities, most notably economic and environmental obstacles and ongoing barriers to service delivery, as well as their resilience and strengths. Intersections of health, social, structural, and access disparities are shown affecting rural disabled populations such as women, racial and sexual minorities, youth, and elders. In terms of responses, a comprehensive array of healthcare and health policy solutions and recommendations is critiqued with regard to health, employment, and service effectiveness outcomes. Included among the topics: Healthcare initiatives, strategies, and challenges for people with disabilities in rural, frontier, and territory settings. Challenges faced by veterans residing in rural communities. The Asia and Pacific region: rural-urban impact on disability. Challenges after natural disaster for rural residents with disabilities. Meeting the needs of rural adults with mental illness and dual diagnoses. Capacity building in rural communities through community-based collaborative partnerships. Disability and Vocational Rehabilitation in Rural Settings makes a worthy textbook for graduate students and upper-level undergraduates in the fields of social work, community and environmental psychology, public health, sociology, education, and geography. Its professional audience also includes vocational rehabilitation counselors serving these dynamic populations.

Evidence-based practice in clinical social work / James W Drisko; Melissa D Grady
Cham, Switzerland : Springer, 2019
353 pages. : illustrations
Ký hiệu phân loại (DDC): 361.32
"The second edition of Evidence-Based Practice in Clinical Social Work continues to close the prominent gap between social work research and clinical practice, presenting EBP as both an effective approach to social work and a broader social movement. Building on the models and insights outlined in the first edition, this new edition provides updated research and additional case studies that address contemporary concerns such as immigration and opioid addiction. Additionally, it includes a greater focus on collaborative decision making with clients, discusses issues of human diversity, and promotes critical awareness of how limited definitions of `evidence' may systematically disadvantage certain populations. Using their breadth of multidisciplinary experience as practitioners, researchers, and educators, the authors guide readers through the EBP decision-making process in assessment, treatment planning, and evaluation, providing guidelines for making relevant use of research findings. The book places special emphasis on balancing clinical expertise and client needs, and analyzes both the strengths and limitations of the EBP model in order to give readers a fuller idea of how the method will shape their own practice."
