Zusammenfassung: Background: Previous studies show that function-centered treatment is more effective than pain-centered treatment in reducing work absenteeism. Results are generally poorer in patients with a Southeast European cultural background. This qualitative research explores possible barriers to return to work that are not identified and addressed adequately. Objective: To explore experiences concerning function-centered rehabilitation in patients from Southeast Europe and to assess health professionals’ views. Methods: Semi-structured interviews were conducted in the patients? native language by a native speaker. Fields of interest covered patients’ expectations of treatment, social and work aspects. Furthermore we assessed the view of health professionals by interviews and focus groups. Results: Patients with a Southeast European cultural background do not consider psychological aspects to contribute to their health problem. Because of their limited knowledge of the German language many patients felt misunderstood by health professionals. Most patients have high treatment expectations and are disappointed that these were not fulfilled. Patients preferred passive treatment and disliked taking responsibility for their own health. Patients experienced a low degree of trans-disciplinary individually adapted treatment. Conclusions: The results suggest, that patients may need more motivational support to participate in active instead of passive treatment, and intensified coordination of trans-disciplinary long-term management involving social workers, employers, medical and psychological care - beyond the currently applied therapy.
