ency working. When out on placement an issue that occurred in one particular family was domestic violence, (see appendix) the HV collaborated with multiple agencies from different sectors to help keep the welfare of the mother and child safe. The Health Visitor helped the mother to get in contact with a voluntary agency
现在将讨论与多机构工作相关的私营、独立志愿部门合作的机构。当外出安置时，一个特定家庭发生的问题是家庭暴力，HV与来自不同部门的多个机构合作，帮助确保母亲和儿童的福利安全。健康访客帮助母亲与志愿机构取得联系
WAVES (women’s centre against domestic violent events), the mother was able to contact them through using the Children’s Centre which is a statutory sector and was also given advice about counselling which is private sector. This involved the use of multi-agency working which for this particular case was a successful collaboration between agencies involved. Through the HV being in contact with the children’s centre, the voluntary and private run group, it assured that the needs of the children and family in this case were being met. Working Together to Safeguard Children (DfES 2006;94) document states; ‘Training and development for inter-agency and multi-agency wok should be targeted at the following practitioner groups from voluntary, statutory and independent agencies, for those who are in regular contact with children and young people’. Multi agency working should include services provided by use of Private, independent and voluntary sectors (Maynard 2004; 189) for overall collaboration between different agencies, and the strategies in place to work together.
WAVES（反对家庭暴力事件的妇女中心），母亲能够通过法定部门的儿童中心与她们联系，并获得了关于私人部门咨询的建议。这涉及使用多机构工作，在这一特殊情况下，这是所涉机构之间的成功合作。通过HV与儿童中心（一个自愿和私人经营的团体）的联系，它确保在这种情况下儿童和家庭的需求得到满足。《携手保护儿童》文件指出：机构间和多机构工作的培训和发展应针对自愿、法定和独立机构的以下从业人员群体，针对那些经常与儿童和青少年接触的人。多机构工作应包括利用私营、独立和自愿部门提供的服务，以促进不同机构之间的全面合作，并制定合作战略。
The effectiveness of agencies working collaboratively together will now be discussed. There are many benefits for multi-agency collaborative working in social care, health care, and education settings. However ‘There appears to be limited positive evidence on outcomes from integrated working with much of the current work focusing on the process of integrated working and perception from professionals about the impact of such services’. Brown et al (2006; 16) One positive aspect is it ‘leads to enhanced and improved outcomes for children and young people, through a range of joined-up services advice and support being readily available and easily accessible’. Cheminais (2009; 26) When observing the collaboration of agencies within the placement setting, it was clear that there was good partnerships between the agencies, this especially was shown between the health visitor and the local Children’s centre (see appendix) as part of the drive for greater collaboration Sure Start Centres were also brought in to enhance multi-agency working by providing many professionals in the same centre, therefore all families have access. Another positive outcome to agencies collaboratively working together is improved cost efficiency, when all services work together they have to use less individual resources. (Johnson et al 2003) Another positive outcome to multi agency working is when services work together they share information therefore this makes it less stressful for families, but also helps agencies to not overlap, as Fitzgerald et al (2008; 28) States; ‘The main strands of children’s services -education, health and social services have in the past developed separately within differently established services. This separate development ultimately led to a fragmented pattern of services for children, with gaps and overlap in service provision and a work force divided by different professional cultures, different remits and goals and ultimately different views of children and childhood’. Therefore when agencies to work together collaboratively great successes came become of this for both children and families, however there are also many barriers to different agencies working together.
现在将讨论各机构合作的有效性。在社会护理、医疗保健和教育环境中，
