Overview

Highlights

The Social Work - Health Care And Social Work Certificate program is designed to educate a new generation of clinical social workers to work in the new and expanding health care delivery system being implemented under the Affordable Care Act.

You'll benefit from a personalized, coordinated, and integrated learning experience. Faculty advisors supervise each student's course load and work with students to help them select field education placements that meet their goals. Our students establish themselves as strong agents of change who are grounded in direct clinical practice and committed to working with under-served populations.

Students graduating with the Certificate in Health Care and Social Work from Simmons University are prepared to work in health services settings including: community health centers, primary care practices, teaching and community hospitals, integrated behavioral health clinics and other health care organizations.
