Betydningen af de aktiviteter som udføres af deltagerne i Alnarps Rehabiliteringshave og sammenhængen til omgivelserne

Interventionen i ergoterapi og i haveterapi har fokus på interaktionen mellem person, aktivitet og faktorer i omgivelserne, hvilket er omdrejningspunktet for specialet. Formålet har været at undersøge aktiviteternes betydning og faktorer i omgivelserne som har betydning for deltagere der har gennemført et forløb i den svenske rehabiliteringshave i Alnarp. Deltagerne er overvejende stressramte og har symptomer på udbrændthed. Kvalitativ forskningsmetode valgtes ved narrative interviews og kortlægning samt rundvandring i Alnarps Rehabiliteringshave. Deltagerne i dette speciale var tre svenske kvinder, 47-56 år som deltog i et 8-12 ugers rehabiliteringsforløb i en gruppe i efteråret 2006. Narrativ analyse af interview sammen med tværanalyse af rundvandring og kortlægning gav undersøgelsens resultater. Resultater viste, at det har betydning for deltagerne at der er sammenhæng mellem udførelse af aktiviteter og omgivelserne, hvor rehabiliteringen finder sted. Omgivelserne viste sig at have stor betydning for deltagerne og skal ses ud fra et bredt perspektiv med vægt på personale, de andre gruppedeltagere, foretrukne pladser, havens design og oplevelser. Resultatet har ligheder med tankerne bag "The Instorative School" med fokus på design, aktiviteter, deltagelse og oplevelser, hvilket Alnarps Rehabiliteringshave er udformet efter. Resultater viste, at deltagerne har meget varieret behov for at udføre og deltage i aktiviteter med tilknytning til haven. Endvidere at der er sammenfald og forskelligheder i aktiviteternes betydning for deltagerne. Resultater viste også, at deltagerne har forskellige behov for at opholde sig udendøre og indendøre under forløbet i Rehabiliteringshaven.
