Specialization: Medical and Psychiatric Social work (MPSW)

Adapting to and coping with a range of diverse conditions can be challenging for people in a variety of situations. Every human being must prepare for and embrace the reality of his or her situation. Health practitioners would never be able to intervene and offer holistic treatment to all of the clients they encounter. This necessitates advanced education. As a result, medical and psychological societal issues have arisen. As a result, in both clinical and non-clinical settings, medical and psychiatric social workers play a key role in multidisciplinary teams. Through psychosocial evaluations, field studies, interviewing, psychosocial interventions, follow-up treatment, and resource mobilization, MPSW practitioners play a specific and diverse role in the lives of clients and their families. These social workers often aid in the understanding of psychological, social, economic, and cultural beliefs and contexts, providing for more careful assessment and care.

Medical and psychiatric social work students study clinical evaluation of mental illness based on their field experience, child and adolescent mental health, adult mental health issues, case work, therapeutic therapy, testing, and more through their academic studies. They are prepared to work in a variety of environments throughout their careers, including government and non-profit agencies, hospitals, Family Psychiatric Units, community mental health centres, neurological departments, recovery centres, women and child welfare settings, non-profit organizations, suicide helplines, and research. During their studies, they complete a field practicum that prepares them to work in all of the above environments. They are given special training to deal with the situation in a more proactive manner, as per evolving requirements such as COVID 19.
