In the centre or caught in the middle? – Social workers’ and healthcare professionals’ views on user involvement in Coordinated Individual Plans in Sweden
Fragmentation of social service and healthcare services has been given attention in many countries and a variety of strategies and models are used in attempts to remedy the problem. In a parallel development, demands have been made that users/patients should have more influence over their own care, and research has shown that user involvement can support the recovery process. This article focuses on how professionals view user involvement in coll…
Integrated care for individuals with mental illness and substance abuse – the example of the coordinated individual plan in Sweden
Specialisation in care and welfare services often leads to inflexible boundaries between organisations and professions, resulting in fragmented and ineffective care, not least in the areas of severe mental illness and substance abuse. Collaborative models such as case management, multidisciplinary teams and coordinated care plans are used in many countries to address this problem. In a parallel development, demands have been made that individual …
Being a child in the family
This study explores how children describe their experiences of family interaction with parents who had taken part in parenting training. 11 children between five and nine years participated in semi-structured interviews which were analysed using a qualitative content analysis method. The children described themselves as active participants in family life, identifying strategies that they used to safeguard their subjective selves on one hand and t…
Just Like Any Other Family? Everyday Life Experiences of Mothers of Adults with Severe Mental Illness in Sweden
This study explores experiences of mothers in Sweden who care for their adult children suffering from severe mental illness. Using 15 interviews with mothers from 40 to 80 years old, the article examines how predominant professional knowledge and sanism constructs the mothers and their children as deviant and what counterstrategies the mothers develop as a response to these experiences of discrimination. The findings show that the mothers' experi…
Competent parents with natural children
This article analyses identity constructions in two manual-based universal parenting training programmes in Sweden, Connect (U) and All Children in Focus (ABC). The analysis was performed with discourse analysis of oral messages during parent training courses. The findings revealed that the parents' subject positions altered between troubled and good while the children's subject positions altered between ambiguous and natural in a confessional di…
An Assessment of Two Parenting Training Manuals Used in Swedish Parenting Interventions
In Sweden, all parents of children aged 0–18 years are entitled to attend free parenting courses as part of a national strategy presented by the Government in 2009. This broad parental support welfare strategy is expected to fulfil the intentions of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. In this study, two parenting training manuals were analysed: the Canadian Connect program, based on attachment theory, and the Swedish ABC program, based …
Revisiting mental hygiene
The concept of mental hygiene is historically intertwined with eugenics and what it meant both ideologically and for the care of the mentally ill. A closer investigation of the concept and of the historical context shows that different interpretations existed simultaneously. The aim of this essay is to highlight the literary and scientific works of a Swedish psychiatrist, Josef Lundahl, an advocate of the mental hygiene concept. A close reading o…
Parents' experiences of collaboration between welfare professionals regarding children with anxiety or depression - an explorative study
Our results suggest that when the encounter between parents and professionals is characterised by structure and trust, it is supportive and serves as a holding environment. Parents think that communication links and coordination between professionals from different organisations are needed in the collaboration, along with appropriately scheduled and well-performed joint meetings to create structure in the parent-professional encounter. Parents al…
Barriers to collaboration between health care, social services and schools
Our results show that allocation of responsibilities, confidence and the professional encounter were areas where barriers to collaboration occurred, mainly depending on a lack of clarity. The responsibility for collaboration fell largely on the professionals and we found that shared responsibility of managers from different organizations is a crucial factor affecting successful collaboration. We conclude that a holding environment, as a social co…
The Meaning of Normality
At the height of the Swedish welfare society, a campaign with the aim of promoting mental health issues within the Swedish labour market was launched. The title and purpose of the campaign, ‘Mental health – an action of increased understanding and solidarity at work’, was to illuminate mental health issues at work. Surprisingly to the organizers, the mental health campaign stirred up major opposition, especially from the political left. The idea …
