Medical Social Worker
Named For Delaware
,contlnued trom rlrst rarel

masters degree in medical social
work from the Simmons College
School of Social Work in 1889, and
has spent the past four years as
medical social worker with the
Children's Hospital in Boston.
Miss Usher worked with the sur
gical service of this hospital,
which included the nose and throat,
plastic and neuro-surgical ser
vices. The goal of Childrens Hos
pital was to help children with
medical problems, and their par
ents. in such a way that the chill
dren were able to take their place
as normal members of their group
at home, in school and in the com
munity.
When a physically handicapped
child was discouraged and afraid
to play with other children or to
go to school. the medical social
worker tried to find a way to show
her that even though she might not
be able to do strenuous things she
could still have good time One
child. for example, gained poise
and learned to forget about a leg
brace by taking piano and singing
lessons Family and friends began
wanting to have her around. es-
pecially because she could take
part in an activity which they all
enjoyed.
Often families with children
who were handicapped just needed
an opportunity to talk about their
feelings and to know that other
children with the same problems
have learned to adjust to them and
that they are doing well despite the
handicaps. Some families needed
specialized assistance of other So
cial agencies and these We're re-
ferred.
An example of this was where a
school was disturbed about a child
with medical problems and felt
that it could not manage the
youngster in a regular classroom
until the child was better adjusted
to his own limitations. In cases like
this it was necessary to secure the
help of nursery school. a special
class or school. or a child guild
ance clinic. To work through such
problems it was necessary for
family. agency. and medical social
worker to combine their efforts to
make it possible for the child 10
learn to lead a normal. happy life
Miss Usher will do this type OF
work in Delaware
