The study charted occupational values and work conditions of Finnish social workers in Helsinki, Espoo and Vantaa, as well as their views on constructive social work and political influencing. First, the respondents were asked how important they personally considered different principles concerning inequality, diversity and equity. It was examined how often the respondents came across situations at work where they had to act against their ethical principles, how often they felt that the way their organisation operated contradicted their personal values, and how often they witnessed problems built into society or their organisation that affected the clients' situations negatively. Additionally, the respondents were asked to assess their own workplace well-being. Next, it was examined whether the respondents had opportunities in their current work to influence political decision-making, to participate in societal discussions and to impact the organisation's practices. The respondents were also asked to assess how important they considered being able to influence different aspects of political decision-making in their work. The respondents' opinions were charted on which objectives should be prioritised in political influencing by municipal social work organisations. Several questions examined the organisations' attitudes toward political influencing and their preparedness in utilising social workers' expertise in the development of services. The survey also charted the respondents' own interest and experience in political influencing. Finally, attitudinal statements examined the respondents' opinions on the role of social work and reasons behind poverty.

The global medical-social work services market is experiencing robust growth, driven by several key factors. An aging global population, increasing prevalence of chronic diseases requiring ongoing care, and a rising demand for integrated healthcare models are significantly boosting market expansion. The integration of social work into healthcare settings improves patient outcomes, reduces hospital readmissions, and enhances overall patient satisfaction, leading to increased investment in these services. Technological advancements, such as telehealth platforms and electronic health records, are also streamlining workflows and expanding access to medical-social work services. Based on industry reports and observed growth trends in related sectors, we estimate the 2025 market size to be approximately $150 billion, with a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 7% projected from 2025 to 2033. This growth is further fueled by the increasing awareness of mental health issues and the expanding role of social workers in addressing social determinants of health, such as poverty, housing insecurity, and lack of access to resources. This contributes to a holistic approach to patient care, moving beyond purely clinical interventions. The market segmentation, encompassing services like patient intake screening, counseling, and education, across various settings including hospitals, nursing homes, and residential treatment centers, reflects the diverse applications and growing demand for this crucial healthcare support. While the market exhibits significant growth potential, some challenges remain. These include workforce shortages within the social work profession, particularly in underserved areas, reimbursement complexities, and the need for effective data integration across different healthcare systems. Despite these hurdles, the positive impact on patient care, increasing investment in healthcare infrastructure, and the growing emphasis on value-based care models will sustain and propel the market’s expansion throughout the forecast period. Competition among providers is intensifying, with established healthcare systems and specialized social work agencies vying for market share, driving innovation and service improvements. The market’s growth trajectory points to a continuously expanding role for medical-social work services in the future of healthcare.
