Abstract

The case details are: Mrs. Yamomoto, aged 52, diagnosed with cancer. Doctors have given

her 6 months to live and sent her home to be with her family. Her family consists of three

children, a special girl child (May 22 years old ) living in a care home and two teenage

children; Ken aged 20, studying engineering at university and Emi aged 14, in high school

and a maternal grandmother Mrs. Robertson 78, and divorced husband Ryoma Yamamoto,54,

living in Japan. Mrs Yamomoto’s medical condition will involve an ever increasing pain in a

few weeks’ time and she will need palliative care to deal with the pain.

The social work assessment and intervention plan has to help in making the decision of when

Mrs. Yamamoto will be moved to a palliative care unit to spend her last days. There are

various decisions related to the care of her teenage children and aged mother that need to be

made in designing the social work intervention plan. This assessment is based on the services

involving palliative care norms required in case of Mrs. Yamimoto.
