This paper describes the first post-Master's program in the US in end-of-life care for social workers. Developed at the Smith College School for Social Work, this program used innovative relational methods in student recruitment, curricular design, supervision, and leadership development, based upon input from the faculty, students, and field supervisors. Collaborations emerged with funders, agencies, and programs nationally. The program was based on a pedagogical stance that clinical work with dying people requires the capacity to be fully present- in individual, group, and family work; in interdisciplinary meetings; and in advocating for quality and equity of care-while attending to diverse and at-risk populations. Students deepened their clinical skills and took leadership in the field of end-of-life care.
本文介绍了美国首个面向社会工作者的临终关怀硕士后项目。该项目由史密斯学院社会工作学院开发，基于教师、学生和实地督导的意见，在学生招募、课程设计、督导和领导力发展方面采用了创新的关系方法。与全国范围内的资助者、机构和项目开展了合作。该项目基于一种教学立场，即与临终患者的临床工作需要在个人、小组和家庭工作中，在跨学科会议中，以及在倡导优质和公平护理时，能够全身心投入，同时关注不同的和有风险的人群。学生们深化了他们的临床技能，并在临终关怀领域发挥了领导作用。
