Question

Do we appeal enough to the family and the network around the client, do we do this in a sufficiently coherent way?

Problem description

We need to involve the family as much as possible, at least, if this is possible.   Gradually we are able to build a network around the client (attending doctor, psychiatrist, etc.) with the intention to collaborate as much as we can and to come to an joint therapeutic project.  But still we miss a specific approach and useful tool

Impact - effect

Sometimes we have to deal with situations where, during our interventions, we come up to the conclusion that we don’t really know the network around the client very well and, in case that professionals are involved, they don’t know us that good

To do

To do: questioning the existing network around the client, and mapping the relationships with each person in a structured way (a network map), after asking the permission of the family and their willingness to contribute.  On the other hand, our work should be better known by professionals working with the client, and we should organise meetings, give presentations, etc.
