Key challenges when implementing routine outcome monitoring developed for counseling into statutory children’s services were studied. Extensive field work was undertaken in a Danish municipality, followed by a thematic analysis. Working as counsellors was new to the statutory social workers. The challenges relating to combining counselling and statutory social work concerned how to take client preferences into account, how to maintain one’s authority and how to understand the term error. The scale used to measure outcomes was too simple for the statutory setting and did not focus on risk. The multiple potential uses of measures were played down. The feedback and case management software systems were not compatible. Some challenges were overcome during the implementation process, while others remain to be dealt with. While the approach is promising, new practices need to be developed that support transparency in the statutory role and a necessary risk orientation.

研究了实施常规结果监测以为法定儿童服务提供咨询时遇到的主要挑战。在丹麦的一个城市进行了广泛的现场工作，然后进行了主题分析。担任咨询员对于法定的社会工作者来说是新的。将咨询和法定社会工作相结合所面临的挑战涉及如何考虑客户的偏好，如何维护自己的权威以及如何理解术语“错误”。用于衡量结果的量表对于法定背景而言过于简单，并且不关注风险。淡化了措施的多种潜在用途。反馈和案例管理软件系统不兼容。在实施过程中克服了一些挑战，而其他挑战有待解决。虽然这种方法很有希望，
