How History of Psychiatry with the 2SLGBTQ Society Influence Social Work Practice
The history of psychiatry with the 2SLGBTQ community influences the social work practice from time immemorial. This has gone all the way until now; the history of the psychiatry community influences a big percentage of the social workers.
The history of the psychiatric patient determines whether the social worker will mitigate the stigma of the patient or not. The people with mental health conditions experience stigma as people are discriminated against because of their condition. The social workers, therefore, remain the only people who can mitigate stigma in society and the world as a whole. They also work hand in hand with other groups to dispel social and individual stigma. There are some patients whose history of mental illness is prevalent, and that means that the work of the social worker becomes challenging in dealing with such issues.
Social issues such as ethnicity and racism affect social work practice in several ways. There are some communities known to suffer from mental illnesses, and therefore, the way social workers handle them is different. This to say, the social workers’ dignity is corrupted by intersectional issues (LeFrançois, Menzies, & Reaume, (2013). Therefore, there is no dignity in their job, yet they are supposed to be at the forefront of fighting social vices for equal treatment of all patients.
In conclusion, in any medical institution, social workers make up between sixty to seventy percent of mental health professionals. They are better known to understand psychiatric patients than any other professionals and offer effective services. However, they should practice integrity equality at all times, since despite their history, they all depend on the social workers.
