Protinę negalią turintys žmonės yra viena iš sudėtingiausių klientų grupių, kadangi dažniausiai jie negali savimi pasirūpinti, jiems reikalinga artimųjų ar globėjų priežiūra. Svarbų vaidmenį dirbant su protine negalia turinčiais žmonėmis atlieka socialinis darbuotojas, kuris kaip matome vis didesnę svarbą užima šių žmonių gyvenime. Tai paskatino patyrinėti socialinių darbuotojų, dirbančių su šia klientų grupe veiklos patirtis.
