Diese Arbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Wirkung von Sozialtherapie als abfedernden Handlungsansatz von psychosozialen Versorgungslücken in Österreich. Da in Österreich traditionell viele Gesundheitsleistungen von der Sozialversicherung in Krankenhäusern erbracht werden, ergeben sich Versorgungslücken dort, wo verminderte öffentliche Ressourcen außerhalb der Spitäler anzutreffen sind. Für Personen, die psychosoziale Versorgung zum Beispiel aufgrund einer psychischen Erkrankung benötigen und über keine ausreichenden persönlichen oder Umwelt-Ressourcen verfügen, hat dies tiefgreifende Folgen: vermehrte und wiederkehrende Krankenhausaufenthalte (in diesem Fall auf psychiatrischen Abteilungen). Dieses Phänomen wird als sogenannter Drehtüreffekt oder auch als Rehospitalisierung bezeichnet. So versucht diese Masterarbeit den sozialtherapeutischen Ansatz auf seine Wirksamkeit und seinen Mehrwert im Hinblick auf die Abfederung von Drehtüreffekten zu beleuchten. Um dieses Vorhaben umzusetzen, wurde der Mehrwert mittels einer Wirkungsanalyse, dem sogenannten SROI (Social Return on Investment), untersucht. Weiters wird der Begriff psychische Erkrankung beschrieben und es werden den Leser*innen die psychosozialen Versorgungsstrukturen Österreichs und dabei ausgemachte Versorgungslücken veranschaulicht. In Zeiten von Ressourcenverschiebungen kann diese wissenschaftliche Arbeit für die Theorie und Praxis der Klinischen Sozialen Arbeit relevante Anhaltspunkte liefern. In diesem Sinne wird der sozialtherapeutische Ansatz auf seine Wirksamkeit erforscht, um zukünftigen Herausforderungen als Antwort auf psychosoziale Versorgungslücken entgegenwirken zu können. This paper deals with the effect of social therapy as a cushioning approach to gaps in psychosocial care in Austria. As many health services in Austria are traditionally provided by the social insurance system in hospitals, gaps in care arise where reduced public resources are found outside hospitals. For people who need psychosocial care, for example due to mental illness, and who do not have sufficient personal or environmental resources, this has profound consequences: increased and recurrent hospitalisation (in this case in psychiatric wards). This phenomenon is called the Drehtüreffekt (revolving door effect) or rehospitalisation. Thus, this Master's thesis tries to shed light on the social therapeutic approach with regard to its effectiveness and added value in mitigating Drehtüreffekte. The added value was examined by means of impact research analysis, the so-called SROI (Social Return on Investment). Furthermore, the term mental illness is described, and the psychosocial care structures in Austria and the identified gaps in care are illustrated for the reader. In times of resource shifts, this scientific work can provide relevant clues for the theory and practice of clinical social work. In this sense, the social therapeutic approach is being researched for its effectiveness to be able to counter future challenges in response to psychosocial care gaps.

Die vorliegende Arbeit befasst sich mit der Problematik des Drehtüreffektes in der stationären Psychiatrie. Methodisch wird mittels literaturbasierter und theorielastiger Recherche gearbeitet. Dazu wird versucht sich dem Phänomen der „Heavy User*innen“ anhand von qualitativen Forschungsdaten anzunähern um anschließend zu evaluieren, ob ein auf Hometreatment basierender, ambulanter Zugang kontrastiert zur stationären Versorgung funktionabler sein kann. Dabei wird einerseits die Relevanz dieses Forschungszweiges für die Profession der Sozialen Arbeit erörtert, sowie andererseits Kernelemente und Grundsätze des Hometreatments herausgearbeitet. Die Ergebnisse deuten klar auf eine hohe Kompatibilität und vielversprechende Erfolgschancen bezüglich der Betreuung und Begleitung von „Heavy User*innen“ durch den ambulanten Zugang des Hometreatments hin. This thesis deals with the problem of the “revolving door effect” in inpatient psychiatry. Methodologically, literature-based and theory-heavy research is used. For this purpose, an attempt is made to approach the phenomenon of "heavy users" on the basis of qualitative research data in order to then evaluate whether an outpatient access based on home treatment can be more functional in contrast to inpatient care. On the one hand, the relevance of this branch of research for the profession of social work is discussed, and on the other hand, core elements and principles of home treatment are worked out. The results clearly indicate a high level of compatibility and promising chances of success with regard to the care and support of "heavy users" through the outpatient access of home treatment.

- Abstract
Background: Discharge management has been mandatory by law in Germany since October 2017, and hospitals are required to finance and implement this. Currently there are no data available on the costs and effects of discharge management on the length of hospital stay., Aims: Determination of the costs of discharge management in the Department of Surgery at the University Hospital rechts der Isar of the Technical University of Munich, Germany, assessment of the length of stay in comparison with and without discharge management, and evaluation of patients' satisfaction to create first precedents for future negotiations about adequate financing., Methods: Cost analysis of discharge management in the Department of Surgery at the School of Medicine at the Technical University of Munich, retrospective analysis of the mean length of hospital stays before and after implementation of discharge management, and patient surveys on the quality of the structured transition process and their satisfaction., Results: The cost analysis revealed lump costs of € 43 per patient and € 391 for patients with a need for complex management. No statistically significant shorter length of hospital stay after the implementation of discharge management was found by analyzing three patient subgroups. The overall rate of patients returning to the hospital due to complications associated with the surgical procedure was 3.4%., Discussion: Discharge management in the Department of Surgery at the hospital is an effective and potentially quality-enhancing but at the same time cost-driving measure, which, in the medium term, will enter G‑DRG rates and may thus increase costs. A possible solution to meet various stakeholders' needs could be a case-specific financial remuneration of discharge management that is adapted to the transition qualities of the various medical departments., (© 2022.

This paper reviews the development of temporary agency work after its deregulation in the context of the so-called Hartz reforms in Germany. The new role of agency work emerges from its enormous growth after deregulation, the intense use of agency work by big stock-listed companies and upcoming structural shortage of skilled labor. Agency work turns out to be procyclical and a leading indicator of labor market trends as well as an early indicator of recessions. The stepping stone hypothesis is only accepted for long-term unemployed after the Hartz reforms. Anecdotal evidence of revolving door effects is well-known but substitution as a broad-based phenomenon is not plausible. Education of staffing agents and training programs for agency workers are on the staffing industry's agenda and will be even more important in the near future due to structural skills shortages.
