- The aim of this study was to describe health care- and social service professionals' experiences of a quality-improvement program implemented in the south of Sweden. The focus of the program was to develop inter-professional collaboration to improve care and service to people with psychiatric disabilities in ordinary housing. Focus group interviews and a thematic analysis were used. The result was captured as themes along steps in process. (I) Entering the quality-improvement program: Lack of information about the program, The challenge of getting started, and Approaching the resources reluctantly. (II) Doing the practice-based improvement work: Facing unprepared workplaces, and Doing twice the work. (III) Looking back-evaluation over 1 year: Balancing theoretical knowledge with practical training, and Considering profound knowledge as an integral part of work. The improvement process in clinical practice was found to be both time and energy consuming, yet worth the effort. The findings also indicate that collaboration across organizational boundaries was broadened, and the care and service delivery were improved.

- The aim of the study was to follow up inter-professional experiences of improvement work one year after a completed CII improvement program aiming at improve health care and social services for people with mental disabilities living in ordinary housing. This study was performed with a qualitative descriptive approach which employed six focus group interviews followed by a thematic analysis. The results revealed four themes; Self-awareness and insights; Behavior and actions in daily practice; Organizational cultures and subcultures; and Organizational practices, using Ken Wilbers' integral theory of four quadrants of realities as a holistic frame in the discussion.

- Background: People with dementia are often cared for by informal caregivers combined with formal care. Informal caregiver’s experiences of formal care through the trajectory of dementia are important for understanding how formal care is working and how the care can be developed.Objectives: To explore informal caregiver’s view of collabora - tion, communication and information with formal care when providing care to a person with dementia in the trajectory from diagnosis to end of life in a Swedish context.Method: Four focus groups interviews were provided with informal caregivers and persons with dementia. An interview guide was used, for discussing how communication with formal care works, the characteristics when it is working well and less well, how informal caregivers wish interaction with formal care should work and suggestions for improvement. The transcribed verbatim was analysed using latent content analysis.Results: Preliminary results showed that the participants had different experience, good or bad, from both caring for a relative in the home and caring for a relative in a nursing home. The themes appearing after analyse were: for participants contextual situation “An unwanted lifestyle with changes in roles”, for participant’s description of collaboration with professionals “Getting resources or finding your own way.” and participant’s description of the information and communication was “Either safe or struggling”.Conclusion: For informal caregivers to feel safe with care and service for the person with dementia the information is needed to be individualised and personalised through the entire trajectory.
