“We all have the same goal!” : A study about information sharing in elderly care organizations (English)
Abstract [en]

This paper is about information sharing in elderly care organizations in Sweden. It has been shown that there are some deficiencies in these organizations, where language and language barriers have been presented as one of the main reasons for these deficiencies. Many of the assistant nurses working in these organizations have Swedish as their second language. In reports from government agencies language barriers have been explained as a problem when it comes to information sharing in these organizations. Leaders are therefore now able to do a language assessment when hiring assistant nurses, this in a time where there is a shortage of staff in these organizations. Previous research has shown that there are many different factors that can affect information sharing in organizations. We wanted to examine if there are other factors, apart from language and language barriers, that affect information sharing in elderly care organizations. We aimed to examine this by talking to the ones working in the organizations. By interviewing assistant nurses that has Swedish as their second language we got a result that shows that there are, apart from language barriers, also other factors affecting the information sharing such as information culture, cooperation, laws, technology and the fact that these organizations are ongoing all day and night and that one mistake in the handover from one staff to another may have consequences when it comes to the quality of the support the elderly receive.
