Serving the Aged and Their Families in the 21st Century Using a Revised Practice Model
2000
Abstract The functional-age model of intergenerational treatment is a multifaceted theoretical framework for social workers interested in clinical practice with older adults and their families. Since the original development of the model, societal and theoretical forces have profoundly and dramatically challenged the social work profession, stimulating a reformulation of the model. This article describes the major factors that led to the revision of the model, summarizes its various practice components, and explains how the revised model will aid social workers in their pursuit of strengths-based and cultural competent practice.
