- Abstract
- The aim of this essay was to examine, from the relative's angle, which actions and behaviour that had an effect on how the relatives valued the encounters with the personnel at so called group housing for persons with cognitive disabilities. The constructional frame of the investi-gation originated from two presumptions.

- The aim of this essay was to examine, from the relative's angle, which actions and behaviour that had an effect on how the relatives valued the encounters with the personnel at so called group housing for persons with cognitive disabilities. The constructional frame of the investi-gation originated from two presumptions. Firstly that the encounter between people is af-fected both by the persons who meet and by the context in which they meet. Secondly that the encounter between the professional and the relative is not an equal one, since the professional stands in some kind of power position. Central questions at issue were for example: How do relatives describe a good attitude? Which elements have an impact on how people experience the attitude? The investigation consisted of eight qualitative interviews. To achieve a positive development of the interaction, three phases were distinguished from the analysis; namely the phases of Listening, Trust and Change. These were characterised by different actions and behaviour. The phase of Listening was characterised by the fact that the information given by the relatives about the resident was given a great amount of space and that the professional showed interest in the information. The phase of Trust that information from the professional about the resident increased. Security and trust were created and the relatives started to let go some parts of the care of the resident. The phase of change was characterised by putting the knowledge of the professional more in the centre. The relatives let go more of the responsibility of the care, which for them was an important goal for the future. (Less)
