SOCIAL WORKERS LIKE LIFELONG LEARNING

We are never too old to learn something new. Attending a Social Work education day was so meaningful. There are a group of social workers throughout the province that are on an email link. We all deal with Mother and baby issues of some sort in our hospitals. The topics on Postpartum depression, the neonatal development of premature babies, surrogacy, employment benefits and drug issues were so relevant. Listening to speakers that were so knowledgeable in their fields was so enlightening. The best part was being around interesting, creative social workers with a positive outlook on life. Even one of the speakers said her best Allied Health colleagues were social workers because we are so nice. If the group present was any indication, she sure was right. Learning is lifelong. It just feels right to attend a lecture or hear a speaker and getting a fresh perspective on the topic. Have you had any training lately? Do you consider yourself a lifelong learner?
