Methods: Qualitative study, outlined by Holistic Multiple Case Study, based on Comprehensive Sociology of Everyday Life with 41 participants. Results: The support to decisions of APS professionals to direct users depends on the flow and regulation of the referenced demands; the waiting time for the user service; may be harmed by unnecessary and unreadable referrals and by the professionals' view on the system.
