"Black Pete-syndrom" : Social workers current and future conditions for collaboration in case of comorbidity (English)
Abstract [sv]

Denna studie syftade till att undersöka hur socialsekreterare inom socialtjänsten uppfattar sina nuvarande förutsättningar för att samverka vid samsjuklighet i form av missbruk och psykisk ohälsa, samt vilka förutsättningar förslagen från regeringens samsjuklighetsutredning, kan ha för att åstadkomma bättre hjälp till målgruppen. En kvalitativ forskningsdesign med semistrukturerade intervjuer användes och fem socialsekreterare deltog. Resultatet indikerade att samverkan brister, främst på grund av strikt uppdelning mellan socialtjänst och hälso- och sjukvård. Möjligheter till samverkan var främst beroende av individuella faktorer. Socialsekreterarna ställde sig positiva till samsjuklighetsutredningens förslag, men var skeptiska till huruvida de kommer att verkställas. Analysen visade att socialtjänst och psykiatri kan anses ha skilda ansvarsområden, kunskapsbaser och regelverk. Uppsatsens diskussion underströk att socialsekreterarnas uttalanden liknade det som tidigare forskning framlagt, det vill säga att samsyn och samordnat arbete behövs vid samsjuklighet. Implementerande av samsjuklighetsutredningens förslag skulle kunna bidra till större förutsättningar för samverkan.

Abstract [en]

This study aimed to investigate how social workers in social services perceive their current conditions for collaboration in case of comorbidity in the form of substance abuse and mental illness, and what conditions the proposals from the recent comorbidity-investigation by the government may have, to provide better help to the target group. A qualitative study with semi-structured interviews was used and five social workers participated. The results indicated that there is a lack of collaboration, mainly due to a strict division between social services and health- and medical care. Opportunities for collaboration were mainly individual factors. The social workers were positive to the comorbidity inquiry´s proposals but were sceptical about whether they will be implemented. The analysis showed that social services and psychiatry can be considered to have different areas of responsibility, knowledge base and regulations. The thesis discussion underlined that the statements of the social secretaries were similar to those presented by previous research, which is that consensus and coordinated work are needed in case of comorbidity. An implementation of the comorbidity inquiry´s proposal could contribute to greater conditions for collaboration.
