“…Another important overall experience of the Sofia model was that parents appreciated the opportunity to talk about the addiction together with professionals from the addiction unit, child social welfare unit, and the Sofia model coordinator. Previous studies have investigated the importance of moving toward an interdisciplinary practice, including professionals within child protection and substance abuse treatment professionals (Blakey, 2014). Parents also strongly valued being treated with respect and in a non-judgmental way, something which they considered important for the entire family.…”

Purpose: The study aimed to assess families’ resource use and to explore parents’ experiences of the Sofia model, a family-based intervention for parents with substance use disorder (SUD). Methods: Interviews were conducted with 14 parents. Data were analyzed with qualitative content analysis. The resource use assessment was estimated based on data for 40 families referred to the Sofia model and 30 reference families. Results: Parents described difficulties accessing family support and differences in received services in the Sofia model. The intervention lacked focus on the children. Families’ communication regarding substance use did not increase. Resource use estimations indicated larger use of services by families in the Sofie model, but little co-parent and child-specific support. Conclusions: The intervention failed its aim to focus on the children, and enhance communication about SUD. Parents voiced a need for more long-term comprehensive support for their children and themselves.

“…The main goal of interprofessional care is to create new and broad understanding of the client's life jointly with the client and each of the professionals involved in the client's care in order to best meet the client's needs (Best and Williams 2018;Blakey 2014;Rydenfält, Borell, and Erlingsdottir 2018). According to Seikkula (2012), traditional evidence-based medicine and psychology are based on the idea that the expert chooses the proper treatment after an accurate diagnosis, without constructing common understanding of the situation together with the client.…”

This qualitative study explores how psychiatric care is negotiated together with multiple health workers from different professional backgrounds and the client as a dialogical process. The purpose of this article is to study the dialogical process of building shared understanding in interprofessional client sessions in a psychiatric clinic.The data was collected from Finnish interprofessional psychiatric services teams. The research material collected consists of three videorecorded interprofessional client sessions. The data was analysed using narrative content analysis. The findings reveal that question-driven discussion reduces the dialogical space but, on the other hand, is needed to build shared understanding. Dialogical moments including confrontations could give room for multivoicedness in the interprofessional process. The assessment and the treatment plan for the client, i.e. the goals of the client process, were created session by session and jointly by all members of the interprofessional team.

“…Ethical dilemmas in an acute crisis situation While the issues of professional ethics have been explored in various fields (e.g., Mendes et al, 2015;Shapira-Lishchinsky, 2011), the amount of research focused on ethical dilemmas arising in the interprofessional context is rather small. In an interprofessional team, the activities by the representatives of another professional group may be subject to criticism if the premises of the work are highly different and some aspect of the work is in conflict with the members' ethical principles (Blakey, 2014). Ethical decision-making may include contradictory principles, such as the client's need, the technical-bureaucratic conditions of the service, requirements concerning financial efficiency, a wish to advocate for the client, or an aim of taking care of one's job in the correct way from a professional perspective (Banks, 2012;Beckett, Maynard & Jordan, 2017).…”

“…Such situations affect professionals emotionally and are also always mirrored on the personal values to the professionals. There may also be variation in the interpretations related to confidentiality between different professionals (Blakey, 2014;Rogers, 2018).…”

This study examines the opportunities brought by simulation learning in acquiring interprofessional skills and developing ethical thinking. A largescale simulation refers to a simulation utilizing drama carried out with the help of actors and professionals from various industries. The simulation was constructed around an emergency situation related to sudden infant death syndrome. The scenario involved a paramedic unit, police officers and an on-duty social worker. The study explored the ethical dilemmas emerging during the simulation training and a related simulation debriefing, and the opportunities simulation pedagogy provides for dealing with and learning about ethical conflicts.The research data included a video-recorded simulation scenario and learning diaries by students based on a large-scale simulation, which were analyzed using narrative methods. The analysis was used as the basis for forming two main narratives representing key dilemmas. These included a person-oriented vs. action-oriented approach, and personal sense of justice vs. correctness. The shared ethical reflection resulted in the students understanding the moral justifications of professionals, such as police officers, physicians and paramedics, despite initially perceiving their activities critically. A key learning outcome was the broadening of the participants' attitudes towards other professionals. They also raised their awareness of the significance of interprofessional collaboration and joint reflection in developing their own ethical thinking.
