Zusammenfassung Hintergrund Kinder und Jugendliche mit sozialpädiatrischen Versorgungsbedarfen stellen eine Gruppe besonderen Herausforderungen dar. Ziel der qualitativen Studie war, die sozialpädiatrische Versorgung in Pandemie aus Expert*innensicht zu beschreiben. Hieraus sollten Rückschlüsse für möglicherweise entstandene Versorgungsbedarfe abgeleitet werden. Methoden Es wurden 25 Expert*innen dem Bereich von Mai bis November 2022 leitfadengestützten Interviews folgenden Themen befragt: Abweichungen Versorgung, Inanspruchnahmeverhalten Familien, individuelle Belastungen Ressourcen sowie nachhaltige Bedarfe. Die 2 wissenschaftlichen Mitarbeitenden inhaltsanalytisch ausgewertet. Ergebnisse Temporär zeigte sich ein deutlich eingeschränktes sozialpädiatrisches Versorgungsangebot. Während bereits vor gut eingebundene Familien ausreichend mithilfe Telefon‑/Videokontakten betreut werden konnten, wurde Dunkelziffer Risikogruppen z. B. geringer Handlungskompetenz beschrieben, welche Leistungen nicht oder verzögert Anspruch nahmen. Beobachtet neu entwickelte psychische Auffälligkeiten Therapierückschritte aufgrund eingeschränkter Fördermöglichkeiten Nachholbedarf verpasster Möglichkeiten Frühförderung bei Entwicklungsstörungen.
