Section I lists works of general information about semi-professional careers and data on combined human services, physical and mental health, education, rehabilitation and social services, and miscellaneous occupations. Section ii cites six sources of information on jobs which involve participation in community action, planning, or administration, and documents in Section iii concern testing and selection procedures for semi-professionals. Additional resource information includes a selected listing of publications which regularly feature articles on the subject and research centers which develop, collect, and disseminate information in this field.
This book is about how front-line workers in the personal social services, such as social workers, probation officers, occupational therapists, health visitors etc can approach the task of managing the varied and competing demands on their time and energy in order to provide a professional service to those people who are in need. It is based on a balance between theory and practical application of workload management schemes, and therefore not only faces the reality of the task but also seeks to offer practical and workable suggestions.
