Sammanfattning
In this project the authors explored what aspects of vocational rehabilitation people with a
schizophrenia
diagnosis see as important to obtain work. Twenty-one participants were interviewed about their
experiences. Work is considered important for dignity, sense of community and daily structure. To
obtain
work the participants emphasized the need for follow-up by competent and trustworthy helpers who
understand what they are struggling with, who can convey hope, and who are continuously focused
on
getting them back to work. Collaboration between helpers is crucial. We discuss how follow-up can be
organized within the Norwegian health and welfare system.
