been in place in VGHTC for over 30 years. Currently, the department consists of 10 Social Workers.
Medical Social Workers recognise that illness and admission to hospital may have a direct impact on the psychological, social, and emotional well-being of the individual and his/her family.  We believe the opposite is also true - a person’s social background and support network will influence their physical / psychological health and wellbeing, as well as their recovery.
