Abstract

Bu çalışma, pandemi döneminde yatılı kurum ve kuruluşlarda aktif görev alan sosyal hizmet uzmanlarının bu dönemdeki sosyal hizmet uygulama deneyimlerini anlamayı, sorunlarını ve gereksinimlerini ortaya koymayı amaçlamaktadır. Nitel araştırma yöntemi kullanılan çalışmadaki veriler, amaçlı örnekleme yöntemiyle ulaşılan Sosyal Hizmet Uzmanları Derneği İstanbul Şubesine üye 8 sosyal hizmet uzmanı ile yapılan görüşmelerden elde edilmiştir. Elde edilen veriler değerlendirildiğinde “Mekân Neyi Belirler?”, “Mekân Deneyimleri: Pandemi Neyi Değiştirdi? ve “İki Grup Nerede Buluşuyor? Paylaşılmış Travma ve Paylaşılmış Dayanıklılık” olmak üzere üç ana tema bulunmuştur. Buna göre yatılı sosyal hizmet kuruluşlarında hizmet sunanlar ile bu hizmetlerden yararlananları aynı ortaklıkta buluşturan unsur mekân olmuştur. Bu ortak mekân paylaşımının ise pandemi döneminin beraberinde getirdiği travmaları ve dayanıklılıkları da aynı ortaklık çerçevesine koyduğu belirlenmiştir. Mevcut çalışma sosyal hizmet uzmanlarının deneyimleri aracılığıyla pandemi dönemi sosyal hizmet uygulamalarının sorunları ve gereksinimlerine yönelik faaliyetlerin geliştirilmesi hususundaki çalışmalar için temel oluşturabilir

The Experience of Place, Shared Trauma, and Shared Resilience of Social Workers in Social Work Settings During the Pandemic Period

Abstract

This study aims to understand the social work practice experiences of the social workers who worked actively at residential social service institutions during the pandemic period and to reveal their problems and needs. The data in the study, in which the qualitative research method was used, were obtained from the interviews with eight social workers who are members of the Turkish Association of Social Workers (Istanbul Branch), which were reached by purposive sampling. When the collected data was analyzed, three major themes emerged: "What Does Space Determine?" "Experiences of Place: What Has the Pandemic Changed?" and "Where Do the Two Groups Meet?" "Shared Trauma and Shared Resilience" Accordingly, the element that brings together those who provide services in residential social service institutions and those who benefit from these services in the same partnership has been "the place." It has been determined that sharing a common place puts the traumas and resilience that the pandemic brings with it on the same ground as well. Through the experiences of the social workers in the current study, the pandemic period can form the basis for studies on the development of activities for the problems and needs of social work practices
