Abstrakt: The social worker interested in providing service to terminally ill cancer patients and their families must begin with careful self-assessment and with clarity about her goals. The tasks to which she can then address herself are: helping her clients (1) explore their feelings and behavioral options, (2) communicate is openly as possible with their significant others, and (3) become aware of resources outside themselves. A fourth task is helping her co-professionals from other disciplines increase their effectiveness. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
