On average, healthcare social workers earn around $67,430 per year in the U.S. Healthcare social workers support patients and their families by providing psychological advice, access to resources, making referrals and providing supportive counselling. As healthcare social workers often encounter sensitive issues, they must be able to handle tough conversations with compassion, sensitivity and objectivity. Healthcare social workers often work in medical facilities and can choose to specialise in a particular area such as mental health, elderly services, or addiction services.
