Abstract [sv]

Rapporter från Socialstyrelsen och undersökningar som publiceras av Folkhälsomyndigheten visar att psykisk ohälsa hos barn och unga i Sverige har ökat kraftigt sedan mitten av 1980-talet. Syftet med denna studie är att undersöka hur samverkan i Värnamo kommun ser ut mellan skola, socialtjänst och barn- och ungdomspsykiatrin för elever på högstadiet som lider av psykisk ohälsa. Studien är en kvalitativ studie som undersöker hur samverkan fungerar mellan skola och socialtjänst i Värnamo kommun. Urvalet av informanter gjordes utifrån professionellas erfarenhet eller deras involvering i samverkan runt barn och unga som lider av psykisk ohälsa. Empirin grundas på tre strukturerade intervjuer med två representanter från elevhälsan och en representant från socialtjänsten. Intervjuerna har kodats och tematiserats för att analyseras utifrån samverkans teorin. Resultatet visar på att kommunikationen är en av de viktigaste delarna för att samverkan ska fungera samt att samverkan oftast bygger på personkännedom. Vidare framkommer det att lagar och regler behöver förnyas och förtydligas för att underlätta samverkan för alla inblandade. Dessutom visar resultatet på att barnperspektivet tas i beaktning till en viss del men att professionella behöver bli bättre på att se och höra barnet utifrån ett helhetsperspektiv

Abstract [en]

Reports from the National Board of Health and Welfare and studies published by the Public Health Authority shows that mental illness at children and young people in Sweden has increased sharply since the middle of 1980s. The purpose of this study is to examine how collaboration in the municipality of Värnamo looks like between the school, the social service and child and adolescent psychiatry for pupils at the upper secondary school who suffer from mental illness. The study is a qualitative study that investigates how collaboration works between the school and the social service in the municipality of Värnamo. The selection of the informants was made on the basis of professional experience or their involvement in collaboration around children and young people suffering from mental illness. The empirical data is based on three structured interviews with two representatives from the student health and one representative from the social service. The interviews have been coded and thematised in order to be analyzed on the basis of the collaborative theory. The result shows that communication is one of the most important part for collaboration to work and that collaboration is usually based on personal knowledge. Furthermore, it appears that laws and regulations need to be renewed and clarified in order to facilitate collaboration for everyone involved. Further, the result shows that the child perspective is taken into account to a certain extent, but that professionals need to be better at seeing and hearing the child from a holistic perspective.
