Hermeneutic Phenomenological Study

Background: Police officers and members of a mobile crisis team (MCT) are the two actors who respond to nuisance in Dutch society related to ‘persons with confused behavior’ and serious violent incidents. Their collaboration creates tension and dissatisfaction about roles and responsibilities. Aim: To explore the lived experiences of, and collaboration between, police officers and members of a MCT. Methods: A hermeneutic-phenomenological study with unstructured in-depth interviews of eight police officers and eight members of a MCT. Findings: The main findings in this study are that in the emergency care of ‘persons with confused behavior’ two very different professions are forced to work together, and that this collaboration is quite challenging. It becomes clear that different visions and expectations cause frustration in the collaboration. Police want the participation of the MCT as soon as possible after they are called in. The MCT wants to be easily accessible for police and can identify the great diversity of problems adequately but cannot solve all problems. There are shortcomings in adequate follow-up care provided by other health-care facilities. Conclusion: It turns out that it is extremely important for police officers that members of the MCT explain to them why a crisis assessment has a certain outcome. The exposed frictions and stagnation in the collaboration should be discussed openly as part of the process in order to acknowledge this and resolve it together. A recently started project called ‘street triage’, in which the police and MCT work together as one team and give a joint response, seems to remove a lot of the friction and stagnation. Further studies are needed to explore the effects of street triage by testing the validity of the hypothesis that street triage can close the gap between the two professions.

Hermeneutic Phenomenological Study

In order to better understand the lived experiences of change agents in the North Department of Haiti, a hermeneutical phenomenological study was conducted. Change agents must work against a variety of barriers in order to help influence change within their spheres of influence in rural Haiti. The change agent experience in this study is collaborative, mutually benefitting, deeply cultural, and built out of necessity. Change agents in this study have found that by working together, they are able to fill in the gaps left by unequal distributions of resources within their communities such as tools, money, advisory services, or even basic agricultural knowledge. Despite holes within the agricultural support services in their areas, the change agents have mobilized community members to work together to move their communities forward. Understanding the lived experiences of change agents will help inform ongoing and future agricultural development efforts in the North Department of Haiti.

Hermeneutic Phenomenological Study

Despite an Executive Office mandate to permit federal workers to telework, federal managers still deny employees this benefit. Several factors have been attributed to their aversion, including lack of trust. Findings from a hermeneutic phenomenological study exploring the lived experiences and perceptions of 12 federal government managers who prohibit their employees from teleworking (Brown, 2013) was analyzed to identify themes related to trust. Of the eight themes Brown identified, five focused on lack of trust. This paper discusses those five trust-related themes and recommends success factors for enabling leaders’ trust of telework are discussed.
