Market context
In North Carolina, healthcare social worker roles are often tied to hospitals, care coordination, and discharge planning, so employers typically look for candidates who can support patients across complex medical and family situations. These roles are competitive because a master’s degree, hospital experience, and an LMSW or clear progress toward LCSW licensure are commonly expected.
