2) Yes of course! Doing social work can have lots of benefit one of them are make the elderly happy because their home have been clean up and someone to talk with so they will not be lonely and bored. The others are we can be more independent doing social work and it can make us people be more kind, helpful as well as caring if we know how to help others next time we wouldn't abondon our parents to home. I love to help others when they need help from others. Social work is a profession for those with a strong desire to help improve people’s lives. They assist people by helping them cope with issues in their everyday lives, deal with their relationships, and solve personal and family problems. Social workers help clients function the best way they can in their environments. They help them deal with their relationships and solve personal and family problems.
