Re: The Importance of Nursing Specialty Certification

More important than being certified in a specialty is requiring Registered Nurses to obtain a minimum baccalaureate level of education. Let's start with the foundation then focus on the extras.

Re: Social Work vs Counseling: Which Degree is Right for You?

I agree this article is very biased. I’m not going to counter this article, which most probably agree is poorly written, but would like respond to the above comment. Both Social Work and Counseling programs prepare students to become therapists. However,
the quality of classes and instruction vary across universities. It is very
important to research your accredited school's program and field opportunities. States
vary in regards to hour requirements for one’s LPC and LCSW. After earning
one’s clinical licensure in either Counseling or Social Work, hours and years have
been put in so that the clinician can provide therapy in independent clinical settings.

The social media is one solid ground on raising awareness for such drives and campaign...Truly, one needs to pay attention to their heart on Valentines Day, check your food intake on dinner dates. You don't really want it to be your last valentine date huh? Let's all take action...wear red to support heart health for women.

Thank you so much for that I have an undergrad in psychology and I am starting graduate school in a few weeks and I have bounced this back and forth of course all Social Workers make it sound like counselors will never find a job and counseling is what I am really interested in. Probably substance abuse
thanks again Shelley

You need to go through Pet Partners (formerly Delta Society) and have your dog go throught the training and testing in order for him/her to become an AAT dog! Hope this helps! :) Good luck to you and your pup!

Re: The Best Paying States for Social Workers

These states are mostly on in the north-east, with the exception of CA, which means they all have a high cost of living to begin with so it most likely averages out to make them not necessarily that much greater (if any) of pay.

There are so much that these after-school programs can do as well as those school social workers. They really need to ensure that these after-school programs exist and that students can gain access to them. School social workers will really help these kids engaged in worthwhile activities.

I stand in agreement with Dr. C & K.F. Jamison. This is truly a biased article, of course in favor of social work programs. If you are reading this article in hopes of finding a accurate and fair representation of BOTH of these fine career tracks, this article is NOT it.

These are critical points. Social work isn't a very smooth and easy in the beginning. And practicing above mentioned will be very helpful for the beginners.

This is a great source of tips on how one will transform their professional aspirations into manageable goals that deliver results. Anyone in the field of social services would want to be an effective social services worker and would want to better serve their community. With these tips, i am sure anyone with aspirations and dreams will be able to make it.

Re: Social Work vs Counseling: Which Degree is Right for You?

K.F. Jamison — Thu, 12 Sep 2013 13:54:16 -0000

This is clearly a biased synopsis in favor of social work programs. Clinical counselors are not nearly as limited in scope or understanding as this article suggests. In no way are social workers more prepared to perform clinical assessments, advocate for clients, provide education, manage large caseloads, or function in leadership positions. Counseling programs are often more competitive and difficult to get into, which creates opportunities for social workers to make their field seem more broad and more open, which is not true. If you want to be a "therapist" I suggest trying to go the route of counseling instead of a social work program where you will be given little instruction on the delicate and intricate are of the talking cure- whereas in a counseling program you will receive hundreds of hours of supervised experience doing nothing but counseling.

How would one begin the process of training their dog as an AAT animal? I have been very interested for years and finally have adopted the perfect dog for this.

Your explanation of counseling is limited. Counselors trained in systemic family therapy would view the family within the larger system. I don't see any difference in how a counselor would work with the family you provide as an example.
