Abstract [sv]

Syftet med studien var att undersöka hur socialsekreterare arbetar med barnavårdsärenden där en förälder har intellektuellt funktionshinder. Studien utgick från två frågeställningar; hur socialsekreterarna upplever mötet med dessa föräldrar och var de hämtar kunskapen inom detta område. En fokusgruppsintervju genomfördes med sex deltagare. Studiens resultat visade att socialsekreterarna upplevde osäkerhet i bemötande och bedömning av familjer med intellektuellt funktionshinder. Denna studie visade också att det finns brister i samverkan och osäkerhet mellan myndigheter, och att socialsekreterarens kunskapsbas främst är erfarenhetsbaserad. Slutsatsen är att det saknas evidensbaserade metoder och att kunskapsområdet präglas av osäkerhet.

Abstract [en]

The aim of the study was to investigate how social workers, within the social child care, work with parents with intellectual disability. Two questions were investigated: how the social workers experienced meeting the parents and what was their knowledge base. A focus group interview was conducted with six participants. The results of the study showed that social workers experienced uncertainty in meeting and assessment the families with intellectual disability. Further, the study showed that there were weaknesses and uncertainty in cooperation between authorities, and that the knowledge used by the professionals was mainly experience based. The conclusion is that there is a lack of evidence based methods and the field is characterised by uncertainty.
