Home visits for cancer patients by social workers
Enhancing Communication and Interaction
Home visits by social workers contribute to enhancing communication between the individual and the medical team. The social worker can serve as a bridge between the patient and healthcare institutions, fostering effective interaction and ensuring comprehensive fulfillment of the patient's needs.
Assessing Needs and Directing Resources
Through home visits, social workers can assess individual and family needs accurately. This enables the effective directing of resources and services, whether it's guiding the patient to psychological support or assisting in accessing necessary financial aid and medical services.
Providing Social and Emotional Support
Offering direct social support can be crucial for cancer patients and their families. A social worker visiting the home can provide emotional support and counseling to help cope with the psychological and social challenges that may arise due to a cancer diagnosis.
