[Social work and health care = clinical social work competence and profile in an area that is hard to survey].
From the very beginning professional social work has been involved in health care. However, in our post modern society this area of competence has to be improved, and in order to compete with new health professions, a clear distinction has to be made. This is shown in important points of modern social work: Society perspective (health behaviour and public health circumstances), WHO perspective (health promotion) and psycho-social perspective (health care in social services). Health care under most difficult conditions asks for specialised competence that is to be developed in Germany as "Klinische Sozialarbeit" referring to international clinical social work standards.
