Menachem tewel discuss services in the home for human welfare
1. March is the Month of National Social Work; Mendel Tevel celebrates with the
contributions of Youth Community Worker. The Menachem Tewel role as a worker
varies from individual to individual and is targeted around the requirement and
desires of each and every individual and their family members or care provider.
Youth support workers recognize the emotional features of delayed stage illnesses.
They assist families and recognize available local and county services and methods for
additional assistance and they guide in plenty of various methods throughout the end-
of-life journey.
2. Menachem Tewel spoke with other Workers of United State of America
about the welfare and work about patients and their families. I was approached by an
RN and was asked to give an interview on Youth welfare’s and welfare other topics.
How does Menachem Tewel work with patients and How he tackle clients
family members?
It is essential to discover out where sufferers are with their acceptance of what is
going on with them as well as going against them. Mendel Tevel doesn’t take away
their basic safety if they have absolutely nothing to replace it with. For example: If
they do not believe they are going to die, I would never utilize reality therapy with
them and tell them what is wrong.
Visits frequently take the route of a lifestyle review, discussing that the issue which is
occurred can be resolved or unresolved like relationships etc. I believe that families
and loved ones are many patients as our patient, so I try to involve them as much as
patient wants them included. I try to link with those persons after most visits with the
patient or after every other visit.
3. What needs do you typically address for them, and what kind of
challenges do you routinely encounter?
Menachem Tewel discuss services in the home, Lifeline, private hires, financial
worries, conflict resolution, helping get families on board, allowing people a chance to
decide how they want the rest of their life’s journey to play out and who should be
involved. Conflicts within families are a challenge — that is more the normal than not.
Other challenges arise when patients don’t have caregivers at the end of life and don’t
want to go to a nursing home.
What do you enjoy the most about working as a hospice social worker?
I like that I don’t have to do it all or know it all because I have a team where we each
have our own expertise, and we can hand off things that others can help with better
than I can. It is so fulfilling to know that my teammates have my back and trust me
and my knowledge. It is nice to have a team to go into team meetings with when I
know there will be conflict. I enjoy the freedom and differentiate of each day. I like
learning about a person’s life and life lessons. People have done a lot of neat things! I
wish I had written down life lessons told to me over the years.
What qualities in a person help make a good hospice social worker?
The most important skill is to be comfortable with the normalcy of death and dying.
Find out what is important to a patient, not what you think should be important.
Don’t make plans with patients to do something “next time” as situations change fast.
If you have tasks to do, do them soon, don’t sit on them too long as things change so
fast. Other important skills include:
1. Good listening skills.
2. Don’t be scared to dig deep if family allows.
3. Be engaging and interested in those around you.
4. Ability to prioritize as your day often doesn’t turn out how you planned it.
5. Work well independently
6. Nonjudgmental
7. Empathetic
8. Be a good advocate
9. Able to deal with crisis and stay calm to help families and patients problem
solve
4. What do you think makes the social worker a key part of the team?
We have skills that enable us to engage people on a deeper level. We do a lot of family
work and connections. We know about resources and community services that are
available and how to get what is needed quickly. We can dive into difficult discussions
and relationships. We have good assessment skills and can often read between the
lines. We can work with support systems and help get survivors ready for death and
hopefully bereavement services.
What do you do to take care of yourself?
I love animals, travelling, family, reading, walking and playing pickle ball. I have good
friends and cats. I value my alone time, yet love my friend and family time. What a
privilege to enter people’s lives at this stage, to get a glimpse of lives led and receive
life lessons, to help heal and bring family members together if people are open to this
end-of-life work. There is a short window of time to help patients get prepared and tie
up loose ends. It is sacred ground that we walk on every day as youth community
workers.
