Area of Science:

  • Healthcare Management
  • Social Work
  • Community Health

Background:

  • The acute care sector involves intensive, short-term medical interventions.
  • Community services focus on long-term patient support and social determinants of health.
  • Professional transitions between these sectors are common but often underestimated.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the unique challenges faced by healthcare professionals moving from acute to community settings.
  • To identify specific difficulties encountered when assuming new roles within social services teams.
  • To provide insights into the adaptation process for professionals in cross-sectoral career changes.

Main Methods:

  • Qualitative analysis of professional experiences.
  • Semi-structured interviews with healthcare professionals transitioning roles.
