Abstract

Cilj ovog kvalitativnog istraživanja je dobiti uvid u iskustva socijalnih radnika zaposlenih u Centru za socijalnu skrb na području Slavonije koji rade s biološkom obitelji pri vođenju procesa planiranja i povratka djeteta u obitelj. Istraživanje je provedeno na namjernom uzorku od 6 sudionika, socijalnih radnika, od kojih su svi bili ženskog spola. Sudionice su zaposlene u tri različita Centra za socijalnu skrb na području Slavonije. Iz svakog Centra intervjuiranje su po dvije sudionice. Prilikom provedbe istraživanja korištena je kvalitativna metoda prikupljanja podataka - polu-strukturirani intervju. Polu-strukturirani intervju sastojao se od 10 pitanja otvorenoga tipa i njima pridruženih potpitanja. Za obradu prikupljenih podataka korištena je metoda tematske analize sadržaja. Prvim istraživačkim pitanjem ispitivala se perspektiva socijalnih radnica o procesu planiranja i povratka djeteta u obitelj. Rezultati istraživanja pokazali su kako sudionice naglašavaju važnost kontinuiranog pružanja podrške obitelji dok traje mjera izdvajanja, suradnju s institucijama na lokalnoj razini, ulaganje u kvalitetu udomiteljsku skrb te nastavak podrške obitelji po povratku djeteta u obitelj. Drugim pitanjem željelo se saznati o načinu uključivanja roditelja i djece u proces planiranja i povratka djeteta u obitelj. Dobiveni rezultati pokazali su kako sudionice to ostvaruju poticanjem roditelja da ostanu aktivni roditelji, savjetovanjem i praćenjem roditelja i uvažavanjem položaja i potreba djeteta. Trećim istraživačkim pitanjem ispitivale su se prepreke na koje socijalni radnici nailaze prilikom planiranja djetetova povratka. Rezultati su pokazali kako su najveće prepreke uloga lokalne zajednice u pomoći obiteljima u riziku, uvjeti rada socijalnih radnika i određene okolnosti na razini roditelja i obitelji o kojima će biti riječ u radu. Rezultati i zaključci istraživanja biti će prikazani u raspravi.
