#1 - Clinical Social Worker
Social workers can find employment in a variety of settings, but clinical social workers find their home in hospitals, schools, and clinics, providing mental health services to patients. Clinical social workers aid in the diagnosis and treatment of mental, behavioral, and emotional disorders, as well as helping families and patients cope with chronic, acute, or terminal illnesses.
Clinical social workers typically need at least a bachelor’s degree, but many jobs require an advanced degree, such as Master’s in Social Work. Social workers must also have a state license, which is acquired through a minimum number of hours of supervised experience. There are also various certification courses to aid in career advancement.
Employment of clinical social workers in expected to increase by 24% over the next ten years. Aging Baby Boomers will create greater demand for all health workers, particularly in assisted-living communities and nursing homes.

please send me information so that I can find out how to further the pursuit of this field - Clinical Social seems to be a very rewarding and needed field, Patients need to vent, ask questions and feel like someone is there who will help through what is a very real and rough and often overwhelming time for them

the downside to this job is that the pay is low. don't go into this field unless you will be satisfied with living a minimalist lifestyle. in addition, the cost of college is very quite high so consider if the outcome low income vs the cost of college is worth it . dont get me wrong i love the work and it's very rewarding but i am concerned about being able to have a decent retirement..
