In reply to Mel. Very eloquently put , posturing and denigration from the managerial culture , backed up by a variety of sycophantic affirmations... indeed. I did 2003 to 2010 , in children's services with lots of CP court time ,then until end 2019 in LD , with additional ASC / MCA rota work. Several bullying narcissistic managers in that time frame. You have to use all policy and procedures, health and saftey and union etc and big beast ? them back , for the greater good ,but its not much fun and very far from ideal.

Me to my manager: I really can’t take on another case, I am struggling as it is. My manager: if you are not coping perhaps social work isn’t for you. Year 2016. I was then on my 13th year as a qualified and practicing social worker. Covid has given cover to the likes of my manager to pretend all was lovely before. It wasn’t and it never can be with the managerial mindset that sees posturing and denigration as strengths. But what do I know, I don’t write blogs on how managers are the crucial organisational culture makers and get to bask in the sycophantic affirmation

I am confused. I read in one article how successful home working has been in containing ill health and that it’s opened up new ways of working with increased self satisfaction and should be embedded in how we work post pandemic. I read in another survey how “resilient” social workers have been in meeting and coping with extra demands. Here I read home working is isolating and reduces the strategies social workers have to cope with stress, newly qualified staff in particular. It’s this knee-jerk confused and confusing messaging which is equally demoralising.

Nothing is done , nothing can be done ? , the Social work profession has always been a stressful intense job with little public recognition for the good work we do . We are always portrayed as the people responsible for societies mistakes and crimes. Terrible child murders, Adult abuse are just the tip of the public perception of our service driven by the media who are often at the heals of Social workers for a story. This was prior to the Covid pandemic, now we have the stress of the Pandemic as well as the emotional luggage we carried over prior to Covid. I did not think we needed a survey to recognise what most Social workers are feeling right now, it shows that if one is needed then the people in charge do not and have any idea, or have not bothered to listen to us over many years. Until we have empathy and support from the top down I am afraid Social work is going to bleed out and subsequently society will suffer even more than we are doing now.

Not a surprise. How many surveys are there saying the same thing? And nothing ever changes. The only answer we are given as social workers is that if we burn out it’s our own failure to implement “self-care”.
