Abstract
It is important to consider the mental health of social work students
to promote their wellbeing and to ensure they are prepared for the
potential stressors of practice. This cross-sectional survey of social
work students (n = 240), the first of its kind on the island of Ireland,
provides findings on mental health and a range of associated issues
which can help to improve student welfare; the content of social
work courses; social work practice; and so, outcomes for service
users. The article discusses implications for the delivery of social
work education internationally.
