DEN KOMMUNALA FÖRVALTNINGEN SOM RATIONALISTISKT IDEAL - en fallstudie om styrning och handlingsutrymme inom skola, barnomsorg och miljö- och hälsoskydd.(The municipal authority as a rationalist ideal - a case-study on steering and scope for initiative within child-care, education and environmental departments.)A municipal authority is a considerable producer of services in the local community and iscommonly perceived as an important sector of the Swedish welfare system. One aspect of awell-functioning municipal organisation is that its administrative organs function efficiently.This study examines how activities in municipal administration are steered. The focus is on how different methods are used within a vertical hierarchical perspective to influence the actions of the participants and how the latter try to create space for action. To analyse the problem an ideal-type steering model is used.The study consists of three sections. In the first the research problem and the aims of the study are introduced as well as the methodological and theoretical approach. The result of the study is presented in the second section and in the third conclusions are drawn and discussed.The study shows that the perceptions of the participants involved regarding the possibilities of steering the everyday activities with the support of the methods studied differ on a number of points depending on the sector studied. When control of the various steering methods is distributed in different organisational units in the municipality a number of steering mechanisms operate side-by-side, sometimes in harmony and sometimes independently or in pure conflict with their goals. Steering leads to clear restrictions but there is clearlyroom for initiative, a ‘free-zone’ where the individual has room to act independently. Is it possible based on this study to state whether the ideal-type model functions in the way intended? On many accounts it would seem doubtful whether the effects of steering lead to beneficial effects for the activity. Rather it would seem that the effects of steeringsometimes function more or less randomly because the administration exists in a complexcontext in which the staff can be expected to have its own expectations and act in accordancewith them.

Syftet med denna studie är att nå en djupare förståelse om hur samhället ska kunna stödja barn som växer upp under ogynnsamma förhållanden på ett bättre sätt. Studien baseras på en litteraturstudie på sex stycken självbiografier som valts ut efter vissa kriterier. Dessa självbiografier har sammanställts utifrån en kvalitativ innehållsanalys och ett antal teman som svarar på våra forskningsfrågor identifierades. Utifrån studiens syfte och frågeställningar har teorier om risk- och skyddsfaktorer, KASAM, skam, resiliens samt anknytning valts ut. Tidigare forskning visar på att utsatta barn och social barnavård är ett eftersatt forskningsområde. Vårt resultat av denna studie visar på brister inom såväl socialtjänsten som samhället i övrigt. Det finns ett omfattande behov av att ständigt uppmärksamma och tydliggöra vilket stöd dessa barn kan få.

Bakgrund: All sjukvård i Sverige styrs av Hälso-och sjukvårdslagen [HSL]. Under vissa omständigheter kan denna lag behövas kompletteras med Lagen om psykiatrisk tvångsvård [LPT]. Dessa personer vårdas inom psykiatrisk slutenvård. Omvårdnadens syfte är att patienten samtycker till vården och tvångsvården kan över gå till frivillig vård. Dessa personers problematik är dock ofta komplex och omvårdnaden upplevs innebära många svårigheter för sjuksköterskorna. Syfte: Att beskriva sjuksköterskors erfarenheter och upplevelse av omvårdnad i samband med LPT-vård inom sluten psykiatrisk vård. Metod: Empirisk kvalitativ studie med deskriptiv design. Studien baseras på sju semistrukturerade intervjuer med sjuksköterskor. Dessa analyserades med manifest innehållsanalys. Resultat: Resultatet visade att en förutsättning för att uppnå målet med tvångsvården genom omvårdnad var att skapa en allians med patienten. Kommunikation som innefattade individuellt anpassad information var en nyckelfaktor till alliansskapande. Omvårdnadsarbetet innefattade samverkan och sjuksköterskorna upplevde ett behov av kompetensutveckling. Slutsats: Sjuksköterskor upplever att omvårdnad enligt LPT är en utmaning och sammankopplat med flertalet svårigheter. Erhålls kompetens, tid för reflektion och trygghet i arbetsgruppen ses dock inte omvårdnaden som en omöjlighet utan kan upplevas som positivt för både den som vårdar och för den som vårdas.

The aim of this study is to explore women's experiences and perceptions of home use of misoprostol and of the self-assessment of the outcome of early medical abortion in a low-resource setting in India. In-depth interviews were conducted with 20 women seeking early medical abortion, who administered misoprostol at home and assessed their own outcome of abortion using a low-sensitivity pregnancy test. With home use of misoprostol, women were able to avoid inconvenience of travel, child care, and housework, and maintain confidentiality. The use of a low-sensitivity pregnancy test alleviated women's anxieties about retained products. Majority said they would prefer medical abortion involving a single visit in future. This study provides nuanced understanding of how women manage a simplified medical abortion in the context of low literacy and limited communication facilities. Service delivery guidelines should be revised to allow women to have medical abortion with fewer visits.
