Summarizing
Advanced human services professional practitioners cannot reflect everything that a service user has said. Instead, it is best to select a few key statements to summarize that will keep the conversation moving forward. Remember that summaries are deliberate. They seek to explore and draw out ambivalence on the part of the service user, to ensure the accuracy of the practitioner’s assessment, and to focus on areas of desired change.
In this Discussion, you will practice writing summaries for the service user in your case study.

Create three open-ended questions you would ask the service user in the case study. The questions must be different than those you asked in Week 3.
Given what you know about the service user, think about how they would answer each question.
Create a summary based on what you think the service user would say in response to the questions. 

By Day 4
Identify the Hart City case study you were assigned in the subject line of your post.
