Corner Hwy. 7A & Water Street Social workers express concern The Durham Branch of the 0.A.P.S.W. is extremely concern- ed that social workers in Ontario will no longer be able to operate legally, in the near future. This is the result of recommendations of the Health Professions Legisla- tion Review and the impending Health Disciplines Act. "Although the Review may have been conscious that care had to be taken to ensure that provi- sions dealing with health services inadvertently did not adversely affect other professions, such as social work, they have missed the mark," according to Drummo White, President of Durha 0.A.P.S.W. "Our legal adviso has indicated that statements nor- mally made during counselling may well be construed as "diagnosis." "Diagnosis" will be orbidden to social workers under the new legislation," said White. White offered typical ex- amples: "A family counsellor ad- vises a suicidal client she suffers, from depression. Or a Children's Aid Society worker explains to an abused child that her reaction to child abuse is a '"'post traumatic stress reaction." Both statements could be typical in these situations." : The proposed Health Disciplines Act will prevent social workers from providing treat- ment in these and related situa- tions, because they involve such diagnosis. "Should the recommendations be passed, it would be most unfor- tunate that social workers would no longer be in a position to assist their clients," White said. The 0.A.P.S.W. is opposing the legislation. White said Durham social workers have contacted the Minister responsible, Elinor Caplan. Social workers' in Durham are also asking that members of the public contact their M.P.P. to express their opi- nions on the matter.
