在中国,除了北京协和医院、上海东方医院等少数医院设立了社会工作或社会服务部门以外,医务社会工作在大多数医院都是空白。近年来,有大学医务社会工作专业的学生被安排到医院实习,但因为医院对医务社会工作的专业性质知之甚少,所以在学生实习中就反映出专业医务社工在医院面临认同困境。 In China, apart from the Peking Union Medical College Hospital and the Shanghai Oriental Hospital, which have set up social work or social service departments, medical and social work are blank in most hospitals. In recent years, students who have majored in medical and social work in the university have been arranged for internship in the hospital. However, because the hospital has little knowledge of the professional nature of medical and social work, it shows in the internship that the professional medical and social workers face the identification difficulties in the hospital.
