My areas of expertise and interest are in older people’s well-being and care management, in addition to effectiveness research and promoting the effectiveness of social services. Currently, I work as a University Researcher in the discipline of Social Work. My recent research has focused on the social exclusion of older home care clients and the effectiveness of day activity services for home care clients (SOLDEX project), as well as on promoting evidence-based practice in social work (NÄPSÄ project). I am also involved in the projects Implementation of evidence-based guidelines in substance abuse social care (LÄSNÄ) and Intensive family intervention in gerontological social work: knowledge-base, preconditions, and evaluation (VAPGE). In my current position, my research particularly focuses on the multi-perspective evaluation of community case management for older adults.
