This book offers an antidote to the medicalization of health care and observes the special needs of socioeconomically disadvantaged persons with respect to health. It is useful for practitioners in the fields of mental health, family and child welfare, gerontology, and industrial practice.
Families and Health Care
Care transitions among Latino diabetics
Inner city, monolingual Latinos may be difficult to enroll and engage in home-based interventions. Although not representative of all Latino populations, barriers encountered highlight the need for targeted research to improve transitional care among Latinos. Researchers and clinicians should take into consideration the unique barriers that Latinos face in participating in research and intervention studies
Comparative Studies of Collaborative Team Depression Care Adoption in Safety Net Clinics
Purpose: To evaluate three approaches adopting collaborative depression care model in Los Angeles County safety net clinics with predominantly Latino type 2 diabetes patients. Methods: Pre–post differences in treatment rates and symptom reductions were compared between baseline, 6-month, and 12-month follow-ups for each approach: (a) Multifaceted Depression and Diabetes Program (MDDP) grant–hired social workers dedicated for depression care, (b) …
Integrating Biopsychosocial Intervention Research in a Changing Health Care Landscape
Objective: Safety net care systems are experiencing unprecedented change from the Affordable Care Act, Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) uptake, health information technology application, and growing of mental health care integration within primary care. This article provides a review of previous and current efforts in which social workers deliver biopsychosocial depression care. Method: Recent research trials tested biopsychosocial care for p…
Social Support, a Mediator in Collaborative Depression Care for Cancer Patients
Objective: This study assessed whether perceived social support (PSS) is a factor in improving physical and functional well-being observed among cancer patients receiving collaborative depression care. Methods: A secondary analysis was conducted of data collected in a randomized clinical trial testing the effectiveness of collaborative depression care. PSS was measured at 12 months; physical and functional well-being were assessed at 18 and 24 mo…
Retaining Low-Income Minority Cancer Patients in a Depression Treatment Intervention Trial
Building the Profession's Research Infrastructure
Beginning in 1988, the social work profession undertook a twenty-five year endeavor to enhance its research capacity and to assure greater representation of social work research needs, priorities and findings at the federal level, where major policy initiatives take place. Described here are some of the key processes, highlighting the efforts to achieve professional solidarity, and the interventions, by social workers, federal 'insiders' and outs…
Psychosocial Concerns among Latinas with Life-Limiting Advanced Cancers
Research has demonstrated that limited dialogue in end-of-life (EOL) care can negatively impact decision-making and place of death. Furthermore, when vulnerable populations are faced with EOL cancer care, they experience issues resulting from previous gaps in services attributed to sociocultural and economic issues that influence EOL care. These conditions place an additional burden on disadvantaged populations which can cause distress, especiall…
Depression Care for Low-Income, Minority, Safety Net Clinic Populations With Comorbid Illness
Objective: Increasingly, mental health care is provided within the general health care sector. Accompanying this significant change is the demand for evidence-based as well as cost-effective or cost-neutral care models. Method: The authors present a pooled analysis of three large randomized clinical trials in which social workers provide depression care in collaboration with patient navigators, treating physicians, and consulting psychiatrists to…

Translational Science at the National Institute of Mental Health
Several recent national reports have noted that there is a 20-year gap between knowledge generated from our best clinical research and the utilization of that knowledge in our health and mental health care sectors. One solution to this dilemma has been the emergence of translational science. Translational science has become a top priority of the National Institute of Mental Health. The goal of translational science in mental health is to speed th…
Social Work in Health Care in 2025
Social work in health care will, over the next 25 years, be transformed in concert with a complex and rapidly changing healthcare landscape and critical advances in behavioral and social science. Professional practice, research and education will be shaped by evolving patterns of health and illness, changing population demographics, developments in medicine, behavioral and social science, technology innovation and applications, and healthcare del…

Social networks, social support and coping with serious illness
Acute chest pain in African Americans
OBJECTIVES. African Americans have been shown to have longer delay times than the majority population in seeking care for acute cardiac problems. The purpose of this study was to determine whether socioeconomic factors affect delay times. METHODS. Structured interviews were administered to 254 African Americans admitted to a public hospital and 194 African Americans admitted to a private hospital for suspected acute myocardial infarction. RESULTS…
Social Networks, Social Support, and Health Status
A recently burgeoning body of research suggests that social ties increase people's immunity to physical illnesses. Study findings form a conceptual foundation for an emerging social support system theory that includes social network structure, social support content, and behaviors and social conditions involved in mobilizing support. As a result, knowledge about person-environment fit and health status is advanced. Social work has a special oppor…
Social Support and Recovery From Myocardial Infarction
The ability to identify patients with special psychosocia1 needs is necessary to effectively target cardiac rehabilitation. Recent evidence suggests that social relationships and social support may influence recovery from a myocardial infarction (MI). A panel study is used to explore the predictive value of assessing social support in MI recovery and to examine its relative contribution to multiple recovery outcomes when compared to illness sever…
