- Case management is an intervention and a profession (case manager or personal representative) in Sweden, working with clients with mental disabilities and/or severe substance abuse problems. When established here in 1995 it relied on research from other countries and thus on other legislative regulations and local social situations. Moreover, theNational Board of Health and Welfare'slatest follow-up on case management, made in 2018 to verify its effectiveness, was mainly based on international research. The lack of domestic knowledge regarding case management and how it is carried out in the Swedish social service was the backdrop of this study. The purpose was to explore the intervention of case management through a literature review of Swedish research, which takes on the perspective of the professionals, and was published between 2008 and 2020. Through seven scientific articlesthe Swedish version of case managementwas analyzed. For the analysis, following theorieswas used: new institutionalism and empowerment. Theresults show that case management in Sweden is in certain contexts carried out according to the national guidelines and in others it is adapted to the needs and situation of its target group, the clients.It is also clear that clients and professionals are generally satisfied with how case management is designed and performed.However, the analysis also highlights that problems arise for the professionals in their cooperation with the clients when they do not receive support from their own organization or when their legitimacy is questioned. The study concludes that it is necessary to obtain a more comprehensive and significant picture of how case management is performed and that for this, there is not enough research based on Swedish conditions.
