BACKGROUND
Stable housing is important for overall health and well-being among young people, and poor-quality housing can trigger multiple diseases, including infections, injuries, chronic diseases, and psychological problems. However, many young people in Sweden struggle with an unstable housing situation. It is therefore important to illuminate how health, social, and civic society professionals and volunteers see the overall health situation for young people (16-27 years) in unstable housing situations.
METHOD
Sixteen health, social, and civic society professionals and volunteers, from both municipal and governmental organizations and civic society, were interviewed during 2024 and were reached through convenience and purposive sampling. The data was analyzed with content analysis.
RESULTS
The results showed that the professionals and volunteers considered that there is a lack of basic necessities, such as food and clothes and often also a place to sleep, among young people in unstable housing situations. They also recounted that the bodies of those young people are weakened as a result of the unstable situation, with its stress and lack of proper care. There are, however, challenges with regard to accessing healthcare and the young people in question are often hesitant to seek care, and inclined to avoid it. Furthermore, the participants mentioned psychosocial challenges, due to loneliness and lack of close contacts with family and friends, and said that people struggling with homelessness tend to suffer from mental illness.
CONCLUSION
Young people in unstable housing situations need support to stabilize them for the future, and in order to work toward a more stable housing situation for these people in the county of Scania, a holistic approach is necessary. This is crucial in view of their overall health, as well as their well-being and life satisfaction.
背景
稳定的住房对年轻人的整体健康和幸福至关重要，而劣质住房可能引发多种疾病，包括感染、受伤、慢性病和心理问题。然而，瑞典许多年轻人面临住房不稳定的困境。因此，了解健康、社会和公民社会专业人员及志愿者如何看待住房不稳定的年轻人（16至27岁）的整体健康状况非常重要。
方法
2024年期间，对来自市政和政府组织以及公民社会的16名健康、社会和公民社会专业人员及志愿者进行了访谈，采用便利抽样和目的抽样相结合的方法。采用内容分析法对数据进行分析。
结果
结果显示，专业人员和志愿者认为，住房不稳定的年轻人缺乏基本生活必需品，如食物、衣服，通常还缺少睡觉的地方。他们还讲述，由于不稳定的状况、压力以及缺乏适当的照顾，这些年轻人的身体变得虚弱。然而，在获得医疗保健方面存在挑战，这些年轻人往往对寻求医疗服务犹豫不决，甚至倾向于回避。此外，参与者提到了由于孤独以及与家人和朋友缺乏密切联系而带来的心理社会挑战，并表示无家可归的人往往患有精神疾病。
结论
住房不稳定的年轻人需要得到支持，以便为他们的未来提供稳定保障，为了在斯科讷县为这些人争取更稳定的住房状况，需要采取整体方法。鉴于他们的整体健康、幸福和生活满意度，这一点至关重要。
