Social Work Assessment Tools

Social workers across various settings, including schools, hospitals, community centers, and counseling services, use social work assessment tools.

These tools are used when a client enters a service and throughout their engagement with the service, especially when their circumstances change or for regular reassessments.

These tools guide the social worker through a comprehensive assessment process, capturing a wide range of information about the client's situation, strengths, risks, and needs. The information gathered is then used to formulate a tailored intervention plan.
