This study aimed to identify the role of the social worker in dealing with the problem of violence against children in the health sector, by defining the roles and tasks that the social worker performs in health institutions while dealing with the problem of violence against children in the health sector. It's crucial to identify the characteristics of violated children who are followed up in the health sector also to identifying the obstacles facing the social worker in health institutions while performing his role in dealing with the problem of violence against children, in addition to defining the mechanism of communication and coordination between the social worker and the medical staff while following up on the problems of abused children in the health institutions. The study relied on the descriptive method, and data was collected using the questionnaire tool, which was applied to (84) social workers or those who perform the work of the social worker, through a comprehensive survey. The results of the study showed that the most common type of violence practiced on children is neglect with a rate of (47.6%). Whereas the results also showed where most child abuse takes place is at home with a rate of (71.4 %). There is a connection between the relationship of the person who commits violence to the child and the places where violence against the child usually occurs. The results showed that the response of social workers about their role in dealing with abused children is very high. While the results showed that there are obstacles facing social workers in the health sector, as it indicated that there is a shortage in the number of social workers working in the health sector, where the number of social workers working in the health sector is (92). The study also showed that the lack of cooperation of the family of the abused child regarding the identity of the person practicing it because of the fear of being subjected to legal accountability is one of the obstacles. The study presented a set of recommendations: increasing the number of social workers in health institutions, enrolling social workers in courses that increase their experience in the medical field, increasing workshops and training seminars for social workers in the field of child health and child rights, providing material resources for social workers to be able to practice social service activities in health institutions and outside the institution.
