Worker time and the cost of stability

This paper investigates the time caseworkers spend supporting long-term foster care and adoption placements. Undertaken in Australia through collaboration between university and non-government agency researchers, the ‘Cost of Support Study’ tracked the hours that caseworkers spent supporting twenty-seven children and their carers over a nine month period.³ The placements were part of a ‘Find-A-Family’ program for ‘hard to place children’, many of whom had previously experienced multiple placement breakdowns. The program has a history of 78% stability on the first placement (over the young person's time in the program) and 93% by the second, with the type of support provided by this accredited agency's program detailed here. The weekly worker diaries reveal an average of 3 hours 32 minutes of worker time per week per placement; however wide variation is apparent in the time given to each placement, and depends on the characteristics of the child involved. Further, the resources required to support each placement are found by multiplying worker hours by the hourly cost per worker, using New South Wales government costings. The paper contributes to the important debate regarding the link between worker time and stability in care, by deepening our understanding of the costs involved in providing high quality support and supervision of casework.     

我国社会养老服务体系的解析和重构

日益加剧的老龄化趋势,要求加快建设社会养老服务体系。我国当前"以居家养老为基础、社区服务为依托、机构养老为支撑"的社会养老服务体系表述,没有揭示养老服务的本质特点,存在着核心功能不够明确、目标人群较为模糊、内部诸要素呼应性较差、运行机制开放性不足等问题,在实践中也碰到了一些困难。通过需要理论阐释养老服务的特质,从系统论出发,社会养老服务体系可以重构为"为老人提供有效照护,以居家为基础,机构为支撑,社区为平台,社会服务为依托"。这种体系表述揭示了照护是养老服务的核心;前置了养老机构的支撑作用;明确社区是综合性照护服务展开的平台;引入社会服务以发挥市场机制配置资源优势;强调服务传递的载体是资金和设施。
