Over the past decade, a number of reviews of the alternative care system in South Australia identified various shortcomings in the system. An extensive restructure and outsourcing of alternative care services in the mid 1990s was reported to have done little to rectify the problems. Between 1998 and 2001 the statutory agency, Family and Youth Services, conducted three internal surveys to measure social workers' compliance with a range of practice standards for children and young people in foster care. The authors of this paper obtained the survey reports and, using data extracted from the reports, constructed a picture of the type of social work service provided to children and young people in care. Where variables were directly comparable, the authors conducted secondary data analysis to identify changes in compliance on a number of practice standards over time. It was found that many young people under state protection may not be receiving adequate levels of care. Of particular concern was the high number of cases in which statutory obligations with respect to health, case review and involvement of young people in decision-making were not being met. |
