Historical Note
Harriett M. Bartlett was a moving force in the continued development
of the fields of medical social work and social work education. Born July 18,
1897, in Lowell, Massachusetts to Henry and Alice Moulten Bartlett, she
graduated from Vassar in 1918, where she was elected to Phi Beta Kappa. In
1920, she earned a Social Service Certificate from the London School of
Economics and Political Science. She was awarded an M.A. in Sociology from the
University of Chicago in 1927 and, in 1969, received an honorary Doctorate of
Humane Letters from Boston University.
Between the years of 1921 and 1945, Bartlett was employed in various
capacities by the Social Service Department of Massachusetts General Hospital
in Boston. For the academic year 1940-1941, she was an associate professor for
the Graduate School of Social Work at the University of Southern California.
She served as president of the American Association of Medical Social Workers
(AAMSW) from 1942 to 1944, and as executive secretary of the Joint Committee on
Teaching of Social and Environmental Factors in Medicine from 1943 to 1945.
From 1947 to 1957, Bartlett was a professor and director of Medical Social Work
at Simmons College School of Social Work in Boston.
Bartlett was active in AAMSW and the National Association of Social
Workers (NASW). While at NASW, she served on the Commission on Social Work
Practice, which became the Division of Practice and Knowledge. Her work on
these committees lead to her major study on social work practice, conducted
during the 1960s. The study resulted in the publication, The Common Base of Social Work Practice . Bartlett also
served as a member of the Committee on Medical Social Work Practice, earlier
called the Committee on Functions, from the early 1930s until its dissolution
in 1963. She chaired the committee from 1935 to 1939 and also served on various
subcommittees throughout her years of membership. Several of her major
publications resulted from studies she conducted under the auspices of the
committee, including
Medical Social Work: A Study of Current Aims and Methods in
Medical Social Case Work , 1934;
Some Aspects of Social Casework in a Medical
Setting , 1940; and
Social Work Practice in the Health Field and Analyzing
Social Work Practice by Fields , 1961. She also published several
articles as a result of these studies.
As President of AAMSW (1942-1944), Bartlett served on the Wartime
Committee on Personnel, chairing the committee through 1944. She rejoined the
committee in October of 1945 as a representative of the American Association of
Social Workers and served until the committee disbanded in 1946.
During her years as Executive Secretary of the Joint Committee on
Teaching of Social and Environmental Factors in Medicine, a committee composed
of medical social workers and physicians, Bartlett was joint author of surveys
of thirteen major medical schools. The final report of the committee,
Widening Horizons in Medical Education , was
published in 1948. Bartlett published an article, co authored by William W.
Beckman, M.D., "Teaching of Social and Environmental Factors in Medicine: Some
Unsolved Problems," which centered on areas they felt were not adequately dealt
with in the committee's final report.
In 1944, Bartlett was authorized to establish a committee concerned
with the development of an organization to deal with overall planning and
coordination in social work. The Interim Committee for Joint Planning in Social
Work was the result. She chaired the committee until it was dissolved in
1946.
Throughout her career, Bartlett was also actively involved in several
other organizations. During the 1940s and early 1950s she served on several
committees of the U.S. Children's Bureau, notably the Advisory Committee on
Maternal and Child Health Care Services. From 1952 to 1954, she chaired the
Committee on Inter Agency Relationships sponsored by the United Community
Services of Boston Council of Social Work in Medical Care. She also
participated in the Research Commission of the Council on Social Work Education
(CSWE) from 1952 to 1958.
