The study was undertaken in order to clarify and evaluate the role of the medical social worker in helping patients with skin diseases. This analysis was based on an examination of the hospital and social service records of 30 skin patients who had been known to the worker on the dermatology service at the Royal Victoria Hospital between January, 1950 and March, 1953. Their environments, personalities, and reactions to the illness were studied to determine whether certain factors influenced the worker's role.
