The final deliverable will be the completed table of policy below and at least a 300-word critical analysis summary (you will copy/paste the table to a new Word document). The summary should be double spaced and presented in a MS Word document format. Please use proper APA Standards formatting and referencing and use Times New Roman size 12 font
Step 1: Prior to starting this assignment, please read the Standards for Technology in Social Work Practice guidelines and supplemental resources located above.
Step 2 Identify and Evaluate Agency Policy and Procedures: Locate your field placement or place of employment’s policy and procedure manual, client confidentiality forms, consent to treatment document, intake form, psychosocial history form, and any other relevant documents. If you are not at an agency, please contact your instructor for a different option.
Match your agency’s policies to the Standards for Technology in Social Work Practice guidelines.
Copy and paste the passage addressing each standard in the table below.
Evaluate each of these policy statements using the Standards for Technology in Social Work Practice guidelines. Evaluation consists of reviewing the interpretation of the standards created by NASW, ASWB, CSWE, and CSWA. Determine if the agency does not have a current policy, if the policy addresses only some of the standard’s definition, or if the policy meets the standards. Please follow the format found in the example below. Be especially aware of how your agency policies address the adaptation of technologies depending on ethnicity, income level, ability, gender, etc.
Step 3: When the agency does not have a policy or if the policy only meets some of the technology standards interpretation, craft a new policy fully addressing the standard.
Step 4 Critical Analysis Summary: Finish the assignment with a critical analysis summarizing the status of how your agency integrates the Standards for Technology in Social Work Practice and three recommendations for improvement which include academic references of evidence-based reasons these recommendations need to be integrated. (Include at least one different reference for each recommendation.)
