The starting point was three characteristics of trends in national policy and organization of services for people with complex needs: decentralization, user participation and coordination. We argue that these characteristics represent conditions within the services for such disorders and also provide a framework for development within them. The characteristics are understood as entangled processes that constitute elements in the emergence of a “new paradigm” in the services, what is described as a focus on “locally based services”. The processes for change at the local level which we have studied show that institutional characteristics, based on different histories and traditions in the work with addiction and mental health disorders, are important for understanding how these change processes are organized. The three municipalities we studied all recognize that addiction and mental health disorders and illness are important societal problems that must be addressed locally. We can also state, however, that local strategies for achieving the goal of better coordination and integrated services evolve in very different ways.","PeriodicalId":108343,"journal":{"name":"Statlig politikk og lokale utfordringer: Organisering av tjenester innen rus og psykiske helse","volume":"105 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115226697","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The starting point is that only a small number of service recipients with dual diagnoses have individual plans, while more than half of them have an appointed coordinator. This raises several questions. One is whether individual plans are a tool for service recipients or for service providers; another question is how coordinators can best assist service recipients with their daily challenges. The chapter concludes that the best help for service recipients with dual diagnoses is to have a coordinator who works as a “boundary spanner”.","PeriodicalId":108343,"journal":{"name":"Statlig politikk og lokale utfordringer: Organisering av tjenester innen rus og psykiske helse","volume":"23 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122734500","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The data consists of own notes after meetings, telephone conversations and focus group interviews, in addition to email correspondence with relevant persons.

Nudging is a specific tool within the framework of soft governance. Furthermore, such instruments leave great latitude for local authorities. We explore how we can understand the development towards today’s dominant ideological perspectives, i.e. normalization, empowerment, towards recovery and “the patient first”, as a development process where soft governance is the overriding concept, increasingly providing room for development of more specific strategies characterized by nudging. Finally, we discuss some implications of using such instruments in practice.","PeriodicalId":108343,"journal":{"name":"Statlig politikk og lokale utfordringer: Organisering av tjenester innen rus og psykiske helse","volume":"73 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123218404","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, this is not a unique situation for small municipalities. There is reason to believe that larger municipalities do not necessarily provide better services for persons with dual diagnoses.

There is still insufficient knowledge about the importance of work and activity among people with co-occurring challenges. This is evident in the Norwegian context, where people with co-occurring challenges are marginally represented in the workforce and other realms of activity. The conceptual framework in this chapter is based on symbolic interactionism, which implies meaning as a formative process. The methodological design is a bottom-up perspective, and the empirical sample consists of qualitative interviews with 13 women and men with challenges and/or co-occurring challenges. The findings indicate that work and activity have a significant impact, providing structure in their everyday lives and benefiting others. Work and activity contribute to affiliation in society and the local community. The conclusion indicates that emphasis and attention on work and activity as basic needs for people with co-occurring challenges is required: work and activity must become a central part of comprehensive services aimed at people with co-occurring challenges.","PeriodicalId":108343,"journal":{"name":"Statlig politikk og lokale utfordringer: Organisering av tjenester innen rus og psykiske helse","volume":"64 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124168637","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We take a close look at how housing needs are defined, allocation processes, and coordination with other relevant services. A major challenge is allocation of adapted housing, partly because many people with dual diagnoses are unable to function adequately in the housing they have at their disposal. The chapter concludes with the suggestion that one of the reasons why housing is so challenging is that those responsible for allocation do not have sufficient knowledge of the housing users and their needs. This challenge could be resolved by enabling more extensive cooperation between the various actors who provides services to the end users.","PeriodicalId":108343,"journal":{"name":"Statlig politikk og lokale utfordringer: Organisering av tjenester innen rus og psykiske helse","volume":"35 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125919284","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The study has an explorative approach based on interviews with people with dual diagnosis, managers, and front-line professionals in a Norwegian municipality of medium size. We found poor formal structures for internal coordination between services for mental health care and services for substance abuse, although they were organised in the same unit. Further, there were challenges in cooperation between this unit and the other healthcare units. Front-line professionals seemed to compensate for poor formal organisational structures with individual, informal coordination arrangements.

Helping convicted offenders to lead a crime-free life after release is an important goal within the criminal justice system. Reaching this goal depends on cooperation between the justice system and municipalities during the offender’s imprisonment. Today there are different strategies for reaching this goal, and measures within the criminal justice system appear to be divided. One possible obstacle to effective collaboration is the lack of interprofessional education between healthcare and social services personnel, and those working in the criminal justice system. This is particularly interesting because one of the goals of the ROPIT project is to outline a common interprofessional training program for all relevant bachelor-level educational programs. A possible solution, therefore, is to ensure that prison service educational programs adopt a common interprofessional training program.","PeriodicalId":108343,"journal":{"name":"Statlig politikk og lokale utfordringer: Organisering av tjenester innen rus og psykiske helse","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123138322","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
