I Never Asked You to Call' a Training Handbook for Social Carers Who Work With Reluctant Service Users

This book hopes to:
– help busy practitioners understand the current social care climate, and how they can best use such understanding in their work with involuntary service users
– raise the profile of involuntary clients, who are sometimes disliked, and often misunderstood
– counteract the demoralisation of workers caused by overwork, constant criticism, and stress
– offer a diy training course, which includes information, implications for practice, and substantial exercises to ‘ground’ the theory
– highlight the positive threads interwoven in the current scene
