Abstract: Submission #23

Abstract Technological advancement has not only positively impacted various human activities but also changed traditional face-to-face social work practices to digital interventions, especially in developed countries. This technology will help enhance clients' engagement, assessment, and empowerment. Despite this advancement, social work practice is still at a crude level in Nigeria. Hence, this study seeks to assess the level of technology-based intervention among social workers in selected public health facilities in Nigeria in South West Nigeria. A quantitative design will be used to gather information from respondents in the health facilities. Purposive and stratified sampling techniques will select 240 social workers from these facilities. Information gathered from the social workers will be gathered using descriptive and inferential statistics. Specifically, descriptive statistics will be used to describe the socio-demographic characteristics, while logistic regression will be employed to test technology's impact on intervention. The finding is expected to reveal the level of technology-based intervention among social workers in the selected public health facilities. Recommendations will be made to encourage the adoption of technology-based intervention among social workers in public health facilities in Nigeria.
