Description
Summary:Social isolation and living alone may lead to cognitive decline; increased need for help physically and emotionally; use of health services, if available and affordable - early institutionalization. Readers will gain a comprehensive understanding of MS and the challenges MS patients must deal with on a daily basis and, may provide Social Workers to assist patients dealing with the challenges to the quality of life of other diseases as well. The role of Social Workers is alertness for assessment and elimination of risk factors in the family environment to support children surviving a "socially disadvantaged background" such as poverty; social exclusion; marginalization; social inequality; social differentiation; stratification of society; identification of differences in the incidence of hospitalization after Social Worker intervention in children at risk needing social protection.
