I have my LMSW and 2 years at a nonprofit. Should I move to a hospital for LCSW hours?
Great question. Hospital roles do count toward LCSW hours in most states. The key questions are:
1. Does the role offer weekly individual supervision by an LCSW?
2. Is the caseload clinical (not case management)?
3. What state are you in?
New Jersey — and yes to all three!
