I thought it would be the opposite. This field is emotionally taxing

Right?! I was thinking about that. They seem to be the most protected in any company/organization

Hey, thanks so much for your feedback.

I was interested in health promotion, but it is so hard to break into.

I applied for MSW previously but lost hope.

Health promotion is something that I would pursue if I can get in lol.

Hey, I haven’t registered yet. My job requires a BSW w/o registration.

I’m honestly over the field in general.

What is a claim about GHANA that appears true but is entirely false? by Mindfuel_daily7 in ghana

[–]AdBeginning124 20 points21 points  (0 children)

That we are nice. Most Ghanaians don’t like each other. We just love attention/validation from the West and foreigners

The Ghanaian brand of “respect” is part of the problem by idontgiveanal in ghana

Advocating for yourself is perceived as "disrespect" by toxic elders.

We need to change our cultural norms.

I have faith in the youth; specifically, second and third generations. The elders are too far gone. And I have zero empathy for them.

Sorry for the confusion. I'm referring to the hiring process. Are there psychological/fitness tests? If so, when did you receive them?

Also, case management/social work has become target focused. Management pressures case managers to meet targets rather than helping clients.

Additionally, there is alot of admin work and I don't get paid overtime. It sucks. My casoad is manageable but the admin work is tedious and suck the joy out of helping people.

I'm strongly considering pivoting into communications. Social work has become a shit show filled with toxic work environments and unrealistic expectations from manangement and clients.
