The eclectic nature of social work in addition to the person-in-environment perspective, as well as its biopsychosocial frame, warrants the utilization of a holistic interventionist lens amid the coronavirus pandemic.

In this essay, we highlight some empowering framework necessary for action and clarify potential ethical concerns. Given the extensive fallout of the COVID-19 pandemic, illustrative guidelines conducive for holistic professional intervention, during and in the aftermath of the disease, are rolled out
