  • This research project focuses on health social workers´ (HSWs) work-methods, theoretical inspiration, and epistemic contribution. The empirical material consists of four focus group interviews with HSWs, and two group interviews with a manager and two HSWs with a specialist function, at a hospital in Sweden. The interviews were held at two occasions, in December 2022 and in April 2023. During this time, the HSWs were active in a project emanating from the managers experience of finding it difficult to answer questions about how the HSWs knew that their work had the desired outcomes. Additionally, there was uncertainty about how to know when work-methods used were supported by research. The analytical focus of this research was directed at gaining a deeper understanding of HSWs' work-methods and theoretical inspirations, as well as to analyze the HSWs' understanding of the project in relation to the theoretical concepts of discretion and epistemic hierarchies. The presentation directs attention to overarching questions of how the HSWs discuss differences and similarities among themselves and explores how they articulate understandings of their work, with an overall focus on the professionalization of this subgroup in social work. This is particularly interesting as HSWs, as the first group of social workers in Sweden, have been granted a professional license requiring a one-year Masters´ level specialist education.
