Case Worker careers
A Case Worker provides support to individuals and families facing social, emotional, and financial challenges. You might work in healthcare, social services, or community organisations, helping clients access resources and develop improvement plans. Key responsibilities include assessing needs, creating case plans, and coordinating services.
Case Workers play a vital role in clients' lives. You’ll need strong communication and empathy to build trust and advocate for their needs while navigating complex situations to achieve positive outcomes.
