Abstract

This study participates in the discussion on risks and carceral spaces, and furthermore, introduces the concept of carceral riskscape. Since there is a strong, but less studied connection between risk and the carceral, this study combines these concepts to provide a new viewpoint on the mechanisms that create carceral spaces. Riskscapes represent spaces embedded with risk and they are usually referred to in connection with health or environmental hazards. The emphasis in this study is on the carceral riskscapes that working communities face in institutional premises. The study analyses the working culture of a geropsychiatric ward in Turku, Finland. Some of the staff members allegedly mistreated the patients and some of the carceral practices were also targeted at co-workers. The research is qualitative in nature and analyses documents from the inner reports to the trial documents. The findings of the study suggest that the relationships between staff members are significant in the context of carceral riskscapes. Furthermore, the carceral riskscapes cause inequalities and have influence on the well-being of the staff members as well as the quality of care.
预防或施加风险?殡葬风险和在精神卫生保健领域的工作
本研究参与了对风险和尸体空间的讨论,并进一步引入了尸体风险景观的概念。由于风险和尸体之间存在着强烈但研究较少的联系,本研究将这些概念结合起来,为创造尸体空间的机制提供了一个新的视角。风险景观代表嵌入风险的空间,通常与健康或环境危害有关。本研究的重点是工作社区在制度前提下面临的致命风险。该研究分析了芬兰图尔库一家老年精神科病房的工作文化。据称,一些工作人员虐待患者,一些尸体做法也针对同事。本研究是定性的,从内部报告到审判文件,对文件进行分析。研究结果表明,在尸体风险情况下,工作人员之间的关系是重要的。此外,尸体风险造成不平等,并影响工作人员的福祉和护理质量。
