- Abstract
- The purpose of this qualitative research was to investigate medical social workers experiences and thoughts on collaboration with other health care professionals and what obstacles and opportunities they see with the interprofessional collaboration.
The empirical research is based on six interviews with curators in somatic healthcare. The emperical data have been collected from semi-structed interwievs with a couple predetermined questions. The data has then been analyzed using organizational theory, based on the structural and political perspective. The material has also been analyzed on the basis of professional theory, including Andrew Abbot's (1988) reasoning on jurisdiction.

The data has then been analyzed using organizational theory, based on the structural and political perspective. The material has also been analyzed on the basis of professional theory, including Andrew Abbot's (1988) reasoning on jurisdiction.
The results of the study show that the health care curator's unclear professional role has proved to be problematic in collaboration with other professions. The lack of knowledge that prevails regarding the curator's professional role in other health care professions is seen as an obstacle to the curators being given the conditions to practice their profession in a valuable way. The hierarchical structure within health care also means that not all professions are given the same value in patient work. The curators experience that the doctors often consider themselves superior to other professions and only look at the medical perspective.
The conclusion from the study is that today's current professional credentials for health care curators give all curators hope to not only strengthen their own professional role but also their status within the interprofessional collaboration. They hope that a stronger jurisdiction will lead to more respect and value for the curators' competence in health care. (Less)
