长期以来,住院护理一直被认为是个案工作的可怜表弟(Ward,1997)。住宅工作人员的士气低落以及他们对儿童保育政策和实践发展的孤立感已得到充分记录(Berridge & Brodie,1998;Murray & Hill,1991)。最近,人们采取了一些行动来提高这些从业者的形象,并确定他们在所照顾的年轻人的生活中所扮演的复杂而熟练的角色。在许多方面,这都集中于与个别年轻人一起开展的工作。检查过程(在确定护理计划、与个人和家庭合作方面)和所采取的研究方法都加深了这种观点。因此,缺乏关于工作人员如何与年轻人作为一个群体一起工作、共同生活和分享日常经历的信息。更值得注意的是,人们普遍对该团体的运作方式以及这些团体对生活在住宿护理中的年轻人可能具有的意义缺乏了解。
Residential care has long been considered the poor cousin of case work (Ward, 1997). The low morale of residential workers and their sense of isolation from child care policy and practice developments have been well documented (Berridge & Brodie, 1998, Murray & Hill, 1991). Over recent times there has been a move to raise the profile of such practitioners and to identify the complex and skilled role that they perform in the lives of the young people in their care. In many ways this has focused on the work undertaken with the individual young person. Both the inspection process (in terms of identifying care plans, work with individuals and families) and the research approach taken have compounded such a perspective. As a result there has been a lack of information about how staff work with young people as a group, living together and sharing day to day experiences. More noticeably, there is a general lack of understanding as to the way in which the group functions and the meanings such groups may have for young people living in residential care.
