Prompts for Social Workers: From Intake to Advocacy

This course teaches you prompts for the daily work of social work. You will practice intake summaries, resource referrals, care plans, crisis communication, documentation, advocacy letters, interagency collaboration, and client education.

  2. What the Course Covers

    You get prompts for intake, referrals, care plans, crisis communication, documentation, advocacy, collaboration, and client education. Each prompt comes with a short explanation and a sample.

  3. How Lessons Connect

    The lessons build on each other. Intake summaries feed care plans. Resource referrals support advocacy letters. Crisis scripts and client education help you communicate clearly.

  4. Using Prompts Well

    Copy the prompt, add your client details, and read the draft with care. Change anything that does not sound like you or your agency. Never paste private information into a tool that is not approved.

  5. Who This Is For

    This course is for social workers in hospitals, schools, agencies, and community settings. It works for new graduates and experienced professionals. No technical background is needed.

  6. Safety and Privacy

    You will learn how to protect client information and follow your agency rules. Use approved tools, remove names when you can, and keep your own records secure. AI is a helper, not a place to store case files.

  7. Your Next Step

    Start with one lesson, like Client Intake Summaries. Practice on a low-risk task and see how it feels. Then add another prompt when you are ready.
