Good Afternoon,

After over 40 years as a social worker I have worked in a number of areas including:  hospital based programs for children & adolescents and adults with chronic psychiatric conditions; adult day care; supportive housing for adults with substance use and/or mental illness; and in child welfare.  The possibilities are great and the need even greater.  The largest problems are with transportation and with electronic charts.

Hello, My name is Sara Rooz.  I am a  retired TVI considering pursuing a deg= ree in social work. Are there any social workers on this list who are blind?=  Which areas of social work do you presently work in? Has any of you worked a= s a medical social worker in a skilled snursing facility or hospital or in a=  Federally sQualified Health Care Center providing sbehavioral health servic= es? In both settings one uses an electronic health record system which EHR d= o you use and how do you input your reports? My preliminary findings about E= HRS are that Epic MyCharts works well with Jaws. However, my testing of the E= HR used by some federally qualified health centers use another EHR known as e= ClinicalWorks which is not easy to navigate with Jaws for Windows. Which onl= ine programs has anyone considered and would recommend? Any thoughts on thes= e matters are greatly appreciated.
