The Mission of OSF Health Care is "to serve persons with the greatest care and love in a community that celebrates the gift of life."

Licensed social workers focus on caring for patients in the areas:

  • Discharge planning

  • Care management

Social workers work closely with interdisciplinary team members throughout the hospital, physician offices, home health care and other local service agencies to better assist patients and families.
