1) The document summarizes diaries from social services practitioners about their emotional experiences on the job. It finds that emotions are mixed, complex, and driven by personal and environmental factors. Practitioners feel frustrated by workload but proud and rewarded when clients achieve outcomes.
2) Relationships with clients and colleagues affect emotions, while a lack of work-life balance and concerns over health contribute to feelings of worry and exhaustion.
3) The diaries provide a novel way of understanding the emotional labor of social work from the ground up and finding ways to better support practitioners.
Ian Cunningham and Colin Lindsay - frontline practitioner experiencesIriss
The document summarizes findings from a study on the experiences of front-line social care workers in private, public, and voluntary sectors. Key themes identified included dissatisfaction with low pay and work-life imbalance due to long hours and unpredictable schedules. While relationships with colleagues and feelings of helping service users were rewarding parts of the job, challenges of high workload, understaffing, and limited opportunities for career progression or learning discouraged some workers. The study highlights areas for improvement such as increased wages, better work-life balance policies, consistent supervision, and developing stronger career paths to retain staff in the social care sector.
The national workforce survey found:
1) Most respondents were between 45-54 years old, worked in the voluntary sector, and were motivated by a desire to make a difference.
2) The biggest challenges reported were funding cuts, high workload, and staff shortages. Most saw a reduction in social services and tension between needs and what can be delivered.
3) Respondents felt valued through good outcomes for those supported and positive feedback. Training opportunities also increased feelings of value, though concerns remained about pay and conditions.
The document discusses the vision and strategy for social services in Scotland from 2015-2020. The vision is of a socially just Scotland with excellent social services delivered by a skilled and valued workforce. The strategy has four strands: strengthening the workforce, improving performance, better use of research evidence, and increasing public understanding of social services. Feedback was gathered from over 500 frontline practitioners through events to understand challenges and inform the strategy. Practitioners said what motivates them is making a difference, feeling valued, and autonomy in their work. They asked for more learning opportunities, clearer career paths, reduced administration, and effective leadership.

Communicating research. Lessons from advertising and journalism Iriss
This document discusses strategies for effectively communicating research findings to broader audiences. It provides tips on moving from simply presenting information to fostering more discussion and debate around knowledge creation. Specific strategies mentioned include using plain language, storytelling, open access approaches, and social media to engage audiences and facilitate two-way knowledge exchange. The goal is to get research out of academic silos and ensure it has real-world impact and relevance.
This agenda outlines activities for a one-day workshop, including opening activities, three main activities focused on collaboration and working together, and a closing session. The document also provides context about IRISS, a Scottish organization that promotes collaboration and participatory approaches to social services. Their goal is to empower those using social services and ensure their voices are heard.
The document outlines 3 lessons for clearer communication based on advertising, visual arts, and journalism. The lessons are to keep messages focused, brief, and simple; use visual impact to engage audiences; and employ clear, concise language without unnecessary words. Together these lessons from other fields can help communicate important information more effectively.
In this presentation, Alison Petch identifies six important dimensions in developing an integrated approach. It was presented at the annual IRISS Champions event 2014.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.

of like type. However, information is flows through
multiple kinds of actors, all of whom are relevant
to the individual

15. Issues with Networks II:
Rest
Aspirin Oxycontin
Even within the standard
network paradigm, we
frequently assume “the
strength of weak ties”
and the “value of
? variety”, where accessing

more information is
useful.
Job hunting (the basis of
SOWT) is different from
health info.

16. Issues with Networks III:
Individuals coping with sensitive issues such stigmatized
and uncommon illnesses may not find adequate support
from otherwise dense, supportive networks.
This depends on the nature of the network as much as the
structure.

17. What kinds of
networks facilitate
information seeking
for Health and Medical Issues?
Friday, October 23, 2009 13
18. Information seeking
• Information flows through and is
contextualized by networks.
• However, Internet-based information
is appealing because of availability,
interactivity, anonymity and potential
to transform relationships.
• Information influences relationships
with self, health, medical
professionals, network members.
• Not all information flows in the same
way or to the same people.

19. Differentiating Health and Medical Information
Health information Medical information
• Information about the body and/or • Relegated to medical books and
the self supplied by professionals
• Historically devalued by medical • Historically privileged as source of
expertise well-being.
• Includes: lifestyle, wellness, and self • Includes: stigmatized concerns,
care mental health, chronic issues
• Issues that require “care” • Issues that requires “treatment”
• Dense networks facilitate common • Dense Networks of similar type
health behaviour (good and bad) support, of different type
• Diverse networks allow adoption of misunderstand
new health practices • Diverse networks allow local
disclosure

20. Data: Connected Lives
• Multi-stage research project in
Toronto (and Northern Ontario)
investigating ICTs and sociability.
• Data comes from East York
(Toronto) surveys and interviews.
• 350 households survey. Broadly
comparable to census tract data.
• 25% convenience sub-sample
(n=86) for interviews.
• Slightly older and less likely to be
single than in the population at
large.

21. Capturing Health Management
• Hours of Internet use
(general, health-specific)
from survey
• Health Assessment
from interview
• Network Data
discussed above
• Support data
via the network

23. Searching for health information
“Iʼm sure I Googled it, cause thatʼs become a verb now. I
usually type in Canada; I wouldʼve put nutrition. … I
remember searching for nutritionist information once
and finding Ontario Canadian Website – I think
Ontario Nutritionists…. (880)”
“you know probably Google or Merck Manual or
something like that. You know if I have a medical
condition that I know about and I just want more
information about it, I would look online… (432)”
“Medical things I tend to look up myself, you donʼt want
your friends to think you are a hypochondriac (366)”

interview. He uses his Internet connected home
computer about daily.

and start in clinical trials and then from there you get your
key words again”

32. “Who in your network do you go to
for health information?”
10% of those interviewed do not mention a
network member that can provide information
42% of that 10% mention an external source,
either their doctor, or the Internet
25% of total sample mention someone outside of
their network, either a doctor or the Internet

33. Summarizing the analysis
• Information flows through networks and media in different
ways. Medical and health information are sought out in
different ways.
• People can add to their ʻinformation gathering networkʼ
from those outside the personal network when necessary.
• The Internet itself is considered a unique social tie that
brings with it support and information. This is especially
the case for medical information.
• This means we should expect different kinds of social
media to facilitate different kinds of information flows, and
one network (or online network site) will not fit all.

34. Summarizing network techniques
• What we learn about social structure will
depend on the technique and the type of
relationships analyzed.
–Some network types:
• Whole, partial,ego-centered
–Some relation types:
• cognitive, trace, articulated
• Networks can show clusters of activity,
prominent actors and flows of information

35. Final thoughts
• Different network structures yield different
outcomes and different needs.
• In health, these needs can refer to lifestyle/
wellness and medical information
• Some people use media as a compliment to
their personal network, others use it as an
alternative.
• We should match the network to the need,
rather than assume we need a network.
