Social workers, do you often feel your jobs are becoming threatened and/or replaced by psychiatric or community health nurses?
The more I see from working in the hospital, it seems that RN's are taking over case management roles, advocacy and typical social work roles.
The only thing that seems to be able to separate RN's from social workers now is if you are an LCSW, they have the ability to provide psychotherapy whereas a nurse does not.
