- Ageing population is becoming a major concern because of its economic, political and social impact. Trusted eldercare service is an important issue for a matured nation. The paper addresses the preconditions of healthy ageing and sustainable value integrated eldercare in a developing and a developed society. In India, professional eldercare is about a decade old and is still emerging to get a foothold in the health care system. The aim is to explore understanding and values of home-based eldercare (HBEC) in India from a multiple stakeholder’s perspective and to understand the value related challenges and issues in developments with HBEC in Sweden which has a century old experience of professional and public organised eldercare. The study included 210 in-depth interviews, 105 each from India and Sweden. The in-depth interviews of various stakeholders including older individuals, their relatives, caregivers, managers and doctors. Interviews and focused group discussions were carried out across six cities in India and 10 municipalities in Sweden. The qualitative data were analysed to conceptualise the stakeholders understanding of HBEC, the values associated with care giving, perceived challenges and issues in the emerging HBEC sector in India. The findings highlight the changing values in the societies with relation to the needs and context of eldercare in both countries. These preconditions for compassion and work engagement in care giving as well as competence development in caregivers need to be strengthened in the contexts of care and in alignment with sociocultural values

Tid att leda : En kunskapsöversikt om hur chefskap påverkar äldreomsorgens kvalitet
- 2014
-
Rapport (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- Rapporten syftar till att svara mot den övergripande frågan: Hur inverkar arbetsvillkoren för första linjens chefer på chef- och ledarskapet för en god kvalitet inom äldreomsorgen? Det är situationen i Sverige som står i fokus och rapporten sammanställer de huvudsakliga resultaten utifrån ett socialvetenskapligt perspektiv. Med målsättningen att bidra med ackumulativ kunskap tar denna översikt vid där Ann Bergmans (2009) studie ”Att leda inom äldreomsorgen: En litteraturgenomgång av enhetschefers organisatoriska sammanhang och arbetsvillkor” slutar. Bergmans litteraturgenomgång genomfördes på uppdrag av Socialstyrelsen och förhåller sig till litteratur som publicerats fram till och med 2007. Den har till syfte att åskådliggöra några av de faktorer som påverkar arbetsvillkoren för personal inom äldreomsorgen i allmänhet och enhetscheferna i synnerhet. Denna studie bidrar med fördjupad kunskap gentemot Bergmans litteraturgenomgång genom att analysera forskning som bedrivits från och med 2008, men också genom att kunskapen om situationen i Sverige relateras till forskningsresultat om situationen i andra länder.Forskningsöversikten begränsas till att omfatta Europeiska och Anglosaxiska länder till följd av att likheter och skillnader mellan utvecklingstendenser inom den offentliga sektorn inom dessa geografiska områden redan är väl presenterade i tidigare forskning. Centrala frågeställningar för kunskapsöversikten är: Vad säger tidigare forskning om relationen mellan första linjens chefers arbetsvillkor och god kvalitet inom äldreomsorg? Hur behandlas den socialpolitiska kontexten inom denna tidigare forskning? Vilka skillnader och likheter framträder mellan resultaten i olika socialpolitiska kontexter i denna tidigare forskning?

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The aim of this chapter is to discuss how the use of creative methods can support students to become aware of global social challenges and give opportunity to reflect on sustainable solutions in relation to different social contexts. Further on, the aim is to discuss preconditions needed. The method used is Future workshop, which is combined with other creative methods as storytelling, scenario, painting, drama, reflective thinking, etc. Data is gathered, from a Swedish perspective during 20 years of being a social worker, lecturer and researcher in social work and national and international collaboration. Results shows, by using different creative methods in education and research, students are allowed to “think outside the box” and new perspectives on common challenges and solutions can be identified. This chapter intends to contribute to a discussion of preconditions needed for using creative methods and multidisciplinary collaboration in the social work programme. The conclusion is working with creative methods needs lecturers who have knowledge of different methods, flexibility to choose between those and confidence in the students to find new solutions. The biggest challenge is not the students, it’s often other colleagues. Support from the managerial level is therefore crucial when introducing creative teaching methods in social work education.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article gives a brief description of management in the care of older persons and persons with disabilities in Sweden. The focus is on how the management profession has developed and what competence is required to reach the goal of providing good quality social care. Current practice challenges and realities indicate that one of the difficulties faced by managers is to provide older persons and persons with disabilities with the possibility of participating in a social context despite a disability or illness. Examples are given of how to secure the individual's rights on a local, regional and national level.
