    Abstract

    This nationwide mixed method study explored early career social work experiences of the first year of practice. Questionnaire data identified the scope of organisational support provided in government and non-government health settings. Qualitative information from semi-structured interviews provided insight into the ways in which the development of professional identity in the first year of practice and its relationship with professional capital holds implications for resilience in sustaining practice in the Australian health sector.

    Curtin would like to pay respect to the Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander members of our community by acknowledging the traditional owners of the land on which the Perth campus is located, the Whadjuk people of the Nyungar Nation; and on our Kalgoorlie campus, the Wongutha people of the North-Eastern Goldfields.
