Crisis Intervention and Social Work Practice in Hospitals

Abstract

Crisis intervention, with its emphasis on focused treatment in a limited time frame, is adaptable to social work practice in hospitals. The author discusses the crisis intervention model in relation to the hospitalized patient and his or her family and examines three kinds of crises: those caused by illness or injuries, by hospitalization itself, and by treatment procedures.
