Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Collaboration between different professions in community care for older people is often both difficult and complex. In this project, a participatory action research (PAR) was conducted in order to support the professions involved in the care for older people to develop individualized health and social care plans. Cases from daily work were discussed in different professional groups over a period of one year. A key finding was that lack of knowledge regarding the other professions' field of expertise and their underlying professional culture and values was a barrier in their collaboration. However, as the continuous reflective dialogue process progressed, the participants began to reflect more about the importance of collaboration as a prerequisite to achieve the best possible care for the recipient. This process of reflection led to the often complex needs of the care recipients being given a more central position and thus care plans being better tailored to each person's needs.5

Journal article (other academic/artistic)abstract
- I sjuksköterskeutbildningen vid Högskolan Kristianstad har sedan 2008 använts en modell för handledning och examination av examensarbetet med fokus på studenternas lärande. Trots att handledningsmodellen varit i bruk under några år visade genomförda kursutvärderingar att studenter uppfattade att det fanns skilda uppfattningar hos handledare och examinatorer om hur examensarbetet ska genomföras. På grund av detta ansöktes medel från Lärande Resurs Centrum (LRC) och Sektionen för Hälsa och Samhälle för att i kollegiet skapa möjligheter att diskutera vilka pedagogiska möjligheter och svårigheter som finns samt hur likheter och olikheter i syn på kunskap kan främja såväl som hindra studenternas lärandeprocess under examensarbetet. I denna rapport beskrivs projektets upplägg och genomförande samt centrala aspekter från den dialog som fördes i kollegiet under projektets gång.

Att göra abstrakta begrepp och komplexa situationer konkreta : en avhandling om deltagarbaserad aktionsforskning i svensk vård och omsorg
- 2009
-
Doctoral thesis (other academic/artistic)abstract
- This dissertation covers the subject of how abstract concepts and complex situations can be concretized through research together with practitioners. The dissertation is based on four empirical studies. The researcher role, the practitioner participation and the methods for data collection and analysis have varied. In study I the concept ‘Närsjukvård’ was explored to understand how practitioners, managers and politicians in hospitals, primary health care and municipalities interpreted the concept. The researcher acted as consultant who collected data by interviews and questionnaires. Practitioners’ participation was limited. ‘Närsjukvård’ was interpreted as accessibility to hospital beds, accessibility to primary health care, collaboration between care providers and continuity and developed home care. Study II aimed to explore how people experienced leg ulcer care. The researcher acted as a consultant who performed the interviews and analysed the data. Although the informants experienced their encounters with the nurses as satisfying, the study illuminated low participation in the care and low practitioner involvement in issues about daily living with the leg ulcer. The findings were brought back to the informants and the practitioners. The project did not proceed towards development and change. In study III the aim was to explore the Swedish concept ‘trygghet’ by using stories from daily life. Four older women were interviewed and the Story Dialogue method was used together with assistant nurses and registered nurses who participated in data collection and analysis. Two themes emerged: Sense of Security and factors strengthening the Sense of Security. Together with the assistant nurses, areas for improvements were identified. Study IV aimed to explore the discharge planning situation in order to generate ideas for development. Members from a discharge planning network participated in the whole research process. Conditions for a successful coordinated discharge planning situation were a system including: the participation of the patient, the competence of the staff and the support from the organisation. The group arranged a workshop about communication and interdisciplinary collaboration. The findings resulted in a form with self-evaluation questions. In conclusion, this thesis illustrates that it is possible to clarify abstract concepts and complex situations together with practitioners. To do this successfully, sense making activities and to start from practitioners’ experiences and their own context are key factors. The studies illuminate that building trust, relationship and sense of participation are essential in health and social care in general and specifically in the participatory action research process.

Local interpretations of health policy concepts : the exemple of Närsjukvård in Sweden
-
Other publication (other academic/artistic)abstract
- Health care systems in Europe face many challenges requiring greater integration of health and social care. The health policy response in government financed health systems has varied but a consistent feature has been continual change in an attempt to secure greater efficiencies and to meet patient expectations concerning service quality. This paper explores the manifestation of this phenomenon in a subregion of Sweden, where a new concept ‘Närsjukvård’ (literally Nearby Care) was introduced. Method: Data was collected through interviews and questionnaires. A convenience sample of 57 practitioners and managers was interviewed. A questionnaire with four statements based upon the findings from the interviews was answered by 1361 practitioners, managers and politicians working in primary health care, in municipalities and in hospitals. Results: The findings illustrated that the concept was interpreted as; accessibility to hospital beds, accessibility to primary health care, collaboration between care providers and continuity and developed home care. The study revealed different understanding and interpretations partly depending on the respondents’ professional domain and their organisational elonging. Conclusion: A prerequisite for creating a common meaning to the expression ‘Närsjukvård’ is that activities that help the creation of meaning are offered at and between all domain levels and organisations.

Sense of security : searching for its meaning by using stories: a participatory action research study in health and social care in Sweden

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- Background. In Sweden, attempts to implement core values to ensure high quality health and social care for older people are given high priority and concepts such as security and dignity are often used. As concepts are abstract they are difficult to transform into practical work. Aim: The aim of this study was to make sense of the Swedish concept ‘trygghet’ by using stories from daily life in a participatory action research project. Design: One group of six assistant nurses and one group of five registered nurses working in municipality participated in Story Dialogue Method and four older women were interviewed. Result: ‘Trygghet’ was found to be an internal sense – an intrinsic state based on faith and trust in oneself and others called security were situations Sense of security. External factors that strengthened Sense ofto be part of a community, to recognise and be familiar with things andand to use various kinds of aids. Conlusion and Relevance to Clinical Practice: A prerequisite for the professionals being able to support the care receivers adequately is that they have a sense of security themselves, and that they are allowed to operate in a system that facilitates for the care receivers to maintain trustworthy and reliable relations over time.
