This article presents the findings from a scoping review on the occurrence of applied drama used in social work education. Evidence from the last decade has highlighted the efficacy and use of simulation-based learning and role-play in social work education to prepare students for practice, but less is known regarding applied drama methods. The review focused on identifying the use of applied drama and interdisciplinary learning that exists in social work education. There were fifty-three articles retrieved and forty-eight papers in total included in the review but only nine used applied drama techniques and five of which evaluated or specified the use of theatre of the oppressed. This paper will focus on the methods and findings of the application of drama in social work education, as this area has had less attention than simulation-based learning and role-play methods, which the other thirty-nine articles reviewed addressed. This paper only focuses on the findings relating to applied drama methods and the small but burgeoning interest in the use of theatre of the oppressed approaches developed by Augusto Boal in the 1970s. The review identifies a gap in current research on the use of applied drama and how it might potentially enable further development of skills and competence for social work students.

Abstract
Access to medical and supportive care services is important for the health and quality of life of cancer survivors; however, services are not always available or accessible to all survivors equally. This study aims to explore the experiences of cancer services among cancer survivors in urban and rural settings to inform social work practice. Authors conducted interviews with 25 cancer survivors (colorectal, n = 13; hematological, n = 12) in the West of Ireland, using a narrative inquiry approach. Thematic analysis was used to analyze the data. Authors found variations in the availability of supportive care services for urban and rural cancer survivors. Often, services designed to maximize survivors' individualized choices and needs in community care were limited in rural communities, preventing some survivors from having their physical and psychological needs met. Additionally, access to services proved to be a barrier for rural cancer survivors. Rural survivors stated that traveling to appointments required time and planning, and the implications of travel costs were an increased burden. When rural survivors had good social support, access to services became less of an issue. The study confirms geographical disparities and recommends a review of supports that better meet survivors' needs and informs social work practice.
