Using a qualitative design, we analyzed administrative notes from a real-time telephone survey with 17 heads of hospital social work services, alongside seven follow-up interviews. The analysis yielded two central themes: (1) Challenges arising from emergency discharge and bed-reduction policy, including institutional barriers, limited community care options, and patient- and family-related obstacles that undermine continuity of care; and (2) The role of HSWs in navigating structural gaps and ensuring equitable transitions of care, through bridging fragmented systems, participating in emergency decision-making, and advocating around social determinants of health. Findings show that under emergency discharge conditions, HSWs moved beyond routine coordination to engage in ethical logistics, systemic navigation, and advocacy for vulnerable patients. In so doing, they acted as \"bureaucratic activists,\" reshaping institutional practices from within, safeguarding equity, and alleviating pressures on the healthcare system. The discussion outlines practical recommendations for policy and practice, emphasizing the need to position HSWs in a leadership role at the center of discharge planning during crises.","PeriodicalId":47519,"journal":{"name":"Social Work in Health Care","volume":"33 1","pages":"1-16"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2026-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147599512","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Using Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA), the study engaged 10 purposively selected social workers from Harare Psychiatric Hospital, Zimbabwe's largest mental health institution. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and analyzed in two phases: initial coding using MAXQDA software, followed by manual interpretation to identify superordinate themes. Findings revealed four key roles: (1) conducting psychosocial assessments that are often excluded from team decisions; (2) attempting to link patients with community-based rehabilitation services despite weak referral systems; (3) engaging families in recovery processes, often without institutional recognition; and (4) advocating for holistic, non-medical interventions that are frequently dismissed by clinical teams. The study concludes that social workers are essential yet undervalued actors in substance abuse care. Their marginalization undermines both patient outcomes and the effectiveness of interprofessional collaboration. Recommendations include integrating social work assessments into treatment planning, strengthening reintegration systems, institutionalizing interprofessional training, auditing policy implementation, and enhancing the resourcing of social work units to support sustainable recovery outcomes.","PeriodicalId":47519,"journal":{"name":"Social Work in Health Care","volume":"13 1","pages":"1-24"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2026-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147489914","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study explores the experiences of palliative care social workers in Ontario, Canada, focusing on the tensions they navigate within interdisciplinary teams. Using an interpretive qualitative approach, in-depth interviews were conducted with 13 social workers practicing in hospital and community-based palliative care settings. Thematic analysis identified three interrelated themes: social workers' understandings of their professional role within palliative care teams; their perceptions of how their role is viewed by other professionals; and the discordance between internal professional identity and external recognition. Across these themes, participants described experiences of role devaluation, constrained professional autonomy, and conflict between anti-oppressive social work approaches and dominant biomedical norms.","PeriodicalId":47519,"journal":{"name":"Social Work in Health Care","volume":"46 1","pages":"1-15"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2026-03-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147350612","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Two hundred informal carers of patients with chronic health issues were recruited and assessed, with a mean age was 59.2 ± 12.3 years (range: 25-86). Most were female and married; slightly more than half were the care recipient's children, 19.1% were spouses, 8.1% were siblings, and 7% were sons-/daughters-in-law. Conditional process analysis indicated a positive association between SN and CN, along with a chain mediation from CN to CH, BC, and QL that reduced loneliness. Overall, carers' external structures shaped their internal structures and actions, yielding both positive and negative outcomes. Digital competence moderated the relationship between CH and BC, reducing BC and loneliness. Social workers and healthcare practitioners should implement technology-based interventions to strengthen carers' social connectedness and mitigate the negative effects of caregiving.","PeriodicalId":47519,"journal":{"name":"Social Work in Health Care","volume":"31 1","pages":"1-16"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2026-01-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"146095476","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
