Question:

Which BEST describes the role of a social worker when engaged in crisis intervention?

A Highly involved and focused on meeting the clients’ basic needs
explanation

Crisis intervention focuses on the here and now, is time limited (most crises last from 4 to 6 weeks), is directive, and requires high levels of activity and involvement from social workers. Social workers’ primary goal is to return clients to equilibrium and meet their immediate needs. Although the first response choice indicates that the support is short term, it is incorrect because social workers focus on meeting basic needs, not “restoring clients’ psychological capacities.”
