Samverkan som prinSip - en studie av interprofessionell samverkan genom SIP

Sammanfattning: The professionals active in the Swedish health and welfare system have in recent years become less holistic and more specialised in their professions. This has resulted in complications due to the complex nature of some cases they work on. The focus on expertise the individual professional possesses has a tendency to blind them of relevant aspects of the clients case outside their own field of expertise. Due to this there has been a noted tendency of clients” falling between the cracks” and not receiving the help they are entitled to. By performing a directed qualitative content analysis, the authors of this paper aim to investigate aspects of the interprofessional collaboration that either benefit or harm the work they do. To do this the authors of this paper analyse different evaluation reports made by Swedish municipalities and regions on their interprofessional collaborations through what is known as a coordinated individual plan, and compare these reports to previous research and also analyse these results with the aid of Domain theory. In this paper we discover that boundaries set up between professionals both benefit and harm the work that is done in Swedish welfare organisations. We also discover how the Swedish social works professional identity affect their relations with other organisations and professionals.
