<\/p>\nHappy social work month! March 2018<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cThrough their commitment to bringing about positive social change, helping individuals of all ages thrive in their local environment and being an advocate for those who have lost their voice, social workers play a prominent role in improving the lives of those who need it most.\u201d<\/em> –\u00a0https:\/\/uiu.edu\/college-search\/importance-social-work.html<\/em><\/p>\n Social workers are the heart of the community, and do so much to empower and work with individuals and families. A bit biased, our owner at Assisting Hands Home Care, Emmie Knox, is a Licensed Master Social Worker. Emmie is a UT Austin graduate with experience in medical social work and with the elderly population. We at assisting Hands are extremely proud to work closely with Austin\u2019s finest social workers to ensure mutual clients\u2019 success in aging in place and\/or navigating growing needs.<\/p>\n From the absolute bottom of our hearts… thank you to all the social workers out there! Your hard work and dedication is noticed and is appreciated. We are lucky to work with you all… keep it up! If you know a social worker, please share a “thank you”, a high five, a pat on the back…<\/p>\n
