Acompañamiento como metodología de Trabajo Social en tiempos de cólera Accompaniment as Social Work methodology in cholera times

Abstract

Accompaniment is presented as a method of social work, which attempts to respond to the needs and social problems in a context strongly marked by the economic crisis, the worsening social problems and fading of public policy on social matters. This is causing a change in the professional role, to the failure, if not lack of resources. The article is structured in three parts: a) the first part of looks at the current social work profession, which lives moments of anger, rage, powerlessness pressure on the social services system, by the increase situations of need and by trimming budgets in social spending; b) in the second part, is presented the conviction that the accompaniment is the methodology of social work, based on the aid relationship. Is described accompanying methodology and intervention methods and techniques applied to the helping relationship, which enable the changing role of the professional resource manager to resource generator; c) In the third part, a claim is made for a social work oriented to research and to contrast theoretical and practical intervention in social reality.
