Social Workers Beware

Business outlook

Pros

The hospital in general is a great place to work for and the culture is steadily improving.

Cons

While the overall culture is positive, the Care Management department needs an entire makeover that hopefully Emory will bring when they acquire Dekalb. Social workers at Dekalb have limited support, limited guidance, no room for growth, and face ethical dilemmas due to bullying tactics by the care management supervisors.
