ABSTRACT

Peer recovery services (PRS) in Norwegian municipalities fill a gap in available care in mental health care and/ or substance abuse treatment. In this qualitative study, we interviewed six peer recovery workers (PRWs). Our aim was to explore how the PRWs understood their competences as vital for carrying out the work in PRS. Through a thematic analysis, we found themes the PRWs recognize as important in their recovery competence. The findings can be of practical relevance to those aiming to develop more recovery oriented mental health distress and substance abuse services.

挪威同行工作者在药物滥用服务中恢复能力的探索

摘要

挪威城市的同伴康复服务 (PRS) 填补了精神保健和/或药物滥用治疗方面的可用护理空白。在这项定性研究中，我们采访了六名同伴康复工作者 (PRW)。我们的目的是探索 PRW 如何理解他们的能力对于在 PRS 中开展工作至关重要。通过主题分析，我们发现了 PRW 认为对其恢复能力很重要的主题。这些发现可能对那些旨在开发更多以康复为导向的心理健康困扰和药物滥用服务的人具有实际意义。
