Amaranth accredited mental health social workers have had to meet specialist accreditation in mental health issues to be Medicare registered. They have particular expertise in helping individuals whose mental health disorders co-exist with other problems such as family distress, drug and alcohol abuse, gambling problems, unemployment, disability, poverty and trauma. They are experienced in working collaboratively with other health professionals.
The Australian Association of Social Workers is the delegated assessing authority, on behalf of the Federal Government, for social workers interested in providing services through Medicare Australia. This assessment process is entitled Accreditation as a Mental Health Social Worker (AMHSW).
