Abstract

ABSTRACT In this Practice Paper, family therapists working in a large Australian non-government agency reflect on their experience of family inclusive practice with children and adolescents living in the organization’s residential care homes. This paper draws on relevant literature in the out-of-home care (OOHC) sector and the substantial research and practice experience which validates the importance and benefits of partnering with families and kin, wherever possible. The primary focus of the authors is an exploration of constraints or roadblocks to effective implementation of family partnering. They also discuss how they are working to navigate these constraints with strategies that can be implemented at all levels in OOHC. Two case studies are presented to highlight the challenges and opportunities in this work, along with some innovative and valuable initiatives in progress. The authors advocate for the need to draw on the voices of children and their families who have been part of the OOHC sector to guide the further development of systemic and collaborative practice.

从业员的观点:与家庭合作进行户外护理(OOHC) -从“外”到共享护理

摘要在这篇实践论文中，在澳大利亚一家大型非政府机构工作的家庭治疗师反思了他们对居住在该组织养老院的儿童和青少年进行家庭包容性实践的经验。本文借鉴了家庭外护理（OOHC）部门的相关文献以及大量的研究和实践经验，这些经验验证了尽可能与家人和亲属合作的重要性和好处。作者的主要关注点是探索有效实施家庭伴侣关系的制约因素或障碍。他们还讨论了如何通过可以在OOHC的所有级别实施的策略来应对这些限制。介绍了两个案例研究，以突出这项工作中的挑战和机遇，以及正在进行的一些创新和有价值的举措。作者主张有必要利用OOHC部门的儿童及其家庭的声音，以指导系统和合作实践的进一步发展。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
