Bakgrunn og aktiviteter
Arbeidsområde
Nestleder forskning ved Institutt for helsevitenskap Gjøvik og professor ved Senter for omsorgsforskning.
Kompetanse
Forskningsområdet mitt er utøvelse og organisering av helse- og omsorgsarbeid hvor jeg retter særlig søkelys mot hvilke betydninger ny teknologi og politiske styringsinitiativer har for etablerte arbeidsrutiner, kunnskap og kompetanser, relasjoner mellom profesjoner og pasienter. Denne typen problemområder undersøkes gjennom empiriske studier av innføring og bruk av ny teknologi og tjenestemodeller i de kommunale helse- og omsorgtjenestene, tverrprofesjonell studentpraksis, og kliniske møter mellom profesjonsutøver og pasienter. I analysene knytter jeg an til samfunnsvitenskapelige perspektiver deriblant Science and Technology Studies (STS), feministisk teori og profesjonssosiologi.
