Abstract

This article explores the job characteristics of social work practice in the home health care field versus the adult day care arena. In many ways, the two positions are very similar; the types of clients or patients serviced, the multidisciplinary nature of the work, and the issues faced when working with this population are examples of similarities. This comparison helps readers understand how the transition from fieldwork to the center setting can be achieved. This exploration represents the personal experiences of the author, who, after almost 25 years in the home health care field, now works in adult day care.
