Generalist Intervention Model

As a social worker, how do you identify the needs and presenting concerns of a given population? Once you determine those needs and presenting concerns, how do you select the most appropriate intervention and assess that it is effective for this population and the specific concerns they face? Social workers must draw from a variety of resources and consider all of the cultural, societal, biological, and physical factors that might influence a clients experience. While no intervention fits all situations, practice models, such as the GIM, offer social workers a starting point from which they can engage, assess, plan, implement, evaluate, terminate, and follow-up with the needs of their clients.For this Discussion, review this weeks Resources.
