Expain the sysyems approach to helping families.?

Question

what are the advantages for children and parents whn the numerous systems and their interactions are considred in the service and plan for helping families

Answer 1

What approach would that be? I have seen them help people who don't need it (but lie to get it) and then not help those who could use the help because by their guidlines they make too much. They ask for your income (which they go by what you make before taxes are taken out) and all of your bills, which they don't even figure in anyway! So, you tell me, what kind of approach is that?!!! Not a very good one. Most of us can't even go to the store each week, but can't get help because we are honest with them and also because we work for a living! LOL

Answer 2

In MI you must have children to get any real assistance. For example I'm 57 years old, I have not been able to find employment, I've been fortunate to get a roof over my head by my ex who I divorced 13 years ago. The state will give me health insurance and sends me to a D- clinic where I can't really get a lot of help. I am allowed ER visits, but no hospital stay should I become that sick. There is not any dental coverage what-so-ever and it's really sad. I've had an infection that is eating away the bones and my teeth are all coming loose. I have a history of mitral valve prolapse and possess a card that states 'bacterial endocartias' which mean I must have antibiotics or there is a chance that if that bacterial infection gets to the mitral valve, I could possibly become fatally ill. More than once in the past 2 years I've had to go without help makes me more apt to acquire a life threatening situation.

The state also cut me off of food stamps because they said as long as I have a roof over my head, and there are no children here, I must find another means to get food. My children are grown and married with families and are struggling for $$ themselves. The ex is no help because he feels he's no longer responsible.

I had gone back to college on Pell Grants and a Federal Work Study Grant just to have the job in college and the financial assistance. But I have since graduated and have still been unable to find employment. My resume is excellent, I've applied for 950 individual jobs in the last 4 years and I still have no income. Yet, when I last went to social services there were many there who could not even speak our language who were getting their needs met, and they were in my age range...or at least they looked like it.

Many companies check credit reports before hiring or for the fee of $30 can get all the information about a person they want. With being unemployed for so long, I truly look bad on paper. People out there just don't understand.

Answer 3

My answer is that you will find your answer in your social work, psychology, or counseling textbook. It is arguably the most popular way of working with families right now no matter what branch of the mental health field you are coming from. Unless you've missed all your classes this semester you should be able to get the answer all on your own.

I hope that I am wrong and that you aren't asking the world for the answer to your final exams. But if I am right here's a bit of advice that I hope you take seriously. Ethics is a huge thing in any school, but it's taken even more seriously by the school if you're going into a mental health or medical field. That's because they can argue that if you can't manage to resist breaking a major rule at school, what is going to prevent you from breaking the rules when you've graduated and are working with people who are in precarious situations? So seriously, the short cut you're trying to take is not worth the risk of losing the chance to get the degree you're working so hard for.

Also, for future reference, remember that the global community is getting smaller and smaller by the day thanks to internet access. You never know who is reading your questions. It could be your prof. It could be a classmate or ex who's mad at you and wants to get you in trouble, etc etc. Just don't do it!!!!

Answer 4

The systems approach not only gives aid to families but helps them come up with a plan to get out of their situation.

Answer 5

It depends on the situtation and what type of a problem or trouble families are having!

Answer 6

EVERYONE not just the system EVERYONE needs to do their part to fix this world and its problems.And we need to help each other...God bless and Merry Christmas to all
