Popis: | Older traumatized veterans represent a population whose needs and problems pervade gerontological social work practice. They rarely identify themselves as veterans nor do professionals often inquire about military service, especially if they are women. Social workers who see this population can play a critical role in helping veterans examine traumatic experiences as they relate to a range of presenting problems. Clinical issues pertaining to engagement, assessment, interventions, transference and termination with the aging veteran are discussed. Specialized knowledge necessary to successfully serve this population as well as obstacles frequently encountered will also be addressed. |
