Abstract

COVID-19 salgını birey, aile, grup, topluluk ve toplumların hayatlarını alt üst ederken sosyal hizmetin de dahil olduğu tıp, hemşirelik, psikoloji, psikolojik danışmanlık gibi yardım mesleklerine olumsuz etki yapmıştır. Salgın dönemlerinin geleneksel yöntemlerinden biri olan karantina uygulama temelli bir meslek ve disiplin olan sosyal hizmette yüz yüze irtibatı sınırlamıştır. Sınırlı temasın olduğu bu dönemde insan hakları ve sosyal adalet ilkelerine dayanan sosyal hizmet uygulamasının gerçekleştirilmesi zorlaşmıştır. Bilgi, beceri ve değer temelinde uygulama yapan sosyal hizmet uzmanları COVID-19’un etkilerini azaltma noktasında mikro, mezo ve makro boyutlarda faaliyetlerini gerçekleştirmektedir. Salgının etkileri karşısında sosyal hizmetin gerçekleştirilmesine ilişkin zorluklar ile sosyal hizmet uzmanları açısından ortaya çıkan yeni rol ve sorumlulukların tartışıldığı bu çalışmanın amacı farklı uygulama alanlarında karşılaşılan zorlukların görünür kılınmasıdır. Salgın gibi biyolojik afetlerde yardım mesleklerinin öneminin daha da anlaşıldığı bu dönemde uygulamaların daha yenilikçi hale gelmesi ve salgının yıkıcı etkileri karşısında sosyal hizmet uzmanlarının teşvik, önleme ve duyarlılık açısından rol ve sorumluluklarının olması gerekmektedir. Bu yolla COVID döneminde sosyal hizmet uzmanlarının uygulama alanlarında mevcut rol ve sorumlulukları genişletilmektedir.

Social Work and COVID-19: Is Social Work Possible During Pandemic?

Abstract

While the COVID-19 pandemic has exacerbated the lives of individuals, families, groups, communities and societies, it had a negative impact on helping professions such as medicine, nursing, psychology, psychological counselling, including social work. Quarantine, one of the traditional methods of pandemic periods, limited face-to-face contact in social work, which is a practice-based profession and discipline. In this period of limited contact, social work practice based on human rights and social justice principles has become difficult. Social workers who practice on the basis of knowledge, skills and values carry out their activities in micro, meso and macro dimensions to reduce the effects of COVID-19. The aim of this study, which discusses the difficulties in the conduct of social work in the face of the effects of the pandemic, and the new roles and responsibilities that emerge for social workers, is to make visible the difficulties encountered in different practice fields. During this period when the importance of helping professions in biological disasters such as pandemic is understood deeply, it is necessary that the practices become more innovative, and social workers have roles and responsibilities in terms of encouragement, prevention and sensitivity in the face of the destructive effects of the pandemic. In this way, the existing roles and responsibilities of social workers in the practice fields of the COVID period are expanded.
