Social work involvement in the COVID-19 response in China: Interdisciplinary remote networking

Zhihong Yu et al.

Summary: Chinese social workers have developed an innovative interdisciplinary remote networking framework to address the diverse needs of the population affected by COVID-19, as well as to establish a new approach for social work in the field of health. This framework serves as an effective model for setting up targeted and sustained service systems, connecting social workers with psychological and medical resources to mitigate the negative impacts of the disease. Social workers play a crucial role in providing critical services for various groups during a public health emergency, and the service mode of interdisciplinary remote networking developed in China may serve as a framework for combating COVID-19 in other countries.
