What are the different social work jobs in Scotland?
Social work jobs in Scotland can be separated into three groups, each dependent upon the vulnerable person or group using the service. There are social work jobs which address the needs of families, including working with children in care or children who have trouble in school, as well as families who are struggling with their finances or housing. Medical social work jobs centre on the physical wellbeing of those who are leaving hospital, have a long-term or debilitating illness, or who have suffered a life-altering injury. The final general category of social work jobs in Scotland are those which deal with mental health sufferers, which can range from a clinical diagnosis to substance abuse or eating disorders.
