Abstract [sv]

Utifrån de teoretiska begreppen handlingsutrymme och paternalism undersöker studien handläggares hantering av gravida kvinnor med missbruksproblematik med fokus på samverkan och hänsyn till graviditet. Urvalet består av sex handläggare med erfarenhet av gravida klienter med missbruk. Hälften av intervjupersonerna arbetar i stadsdelsförvaltningar och kommuner i Stockholm medan den andra hälften arbetar i andra kommuner. Det empiriska materialet insamlades genom semi-strukturerade intervjuer med utgångspunkt i en vinjett. Därefter analyserades materialet utifrån en tematisk analys. Resultatet visar att handläggarnas hantering av klientgruppen varierar i stor utsträckning. Vissa handläggare anpassar insatserna på grund av klientens graviditet medan andra inte låter sig påverkas av det. Dessutom skiljer sig handläggarnas uppfattning kring vad som krävs för att tillämpa LVM när det gäller en gravid klient. Tidigare forskning visar att det är framgångsrikt att samla insatser för att tillgodose klientgruppens behov. Samtidigt visar studiens resultat att detta inte går att uppnå om det inte finns en god samverkan mellan kommun och region. Handläggarnas fokus på samverkan varierar vilket också påverkar klientgruppens möjlighet att få heltäckande behandling.

Abstract [en]

Based on the theoretical concepts of room for action and paternalism, the study examines caseworkers' handling of pregnant women with substance abuse problems with a focus on collaboration and consideration of pregnancy. The selection consists of six caseworkers with experience of pregnant clients with addiction. Half of the interviewees work in district administrations and municipalities in Stockholm, while the other half work in other municipalities. The empirical material was collected through semi-structured interviews based on a vignette. The material was then analyzed based on a thematic analysis. The results show that the case managers' handling of the client group varies to a large extent. Some caseworkers adapt the interventions due to the client's pregnancy, while others are not affected by it. In addition, case managers differ in their views on what is required to apply compulsory care when it comes to a pregnant client. Previous research shows that it is successful to gather efforts to meet the needs of the client group, the results of the study show that this cannot be achieved if there is no good cooperation between municipality and county council. The case managers' focus on collaboration varies, which also affects the client group's ability to receive comprehensive treatment.
