This book is a practical guide to the CARE programme, a home
visiting programme that aims to assess infants? growth, development
and psycho-social transitions in their first year of life and that
together with the Index of Need checklist aims to engage parents in
risk assessment. It provides evidence-based research for the
programme, and gives clinical examples of how to use the assessment
tools (including the Index of Need) and how to work with parents.
The authors take a ?partnership with parents? approach throughout,
while bearing in mind the practical workload issues that
practitioners face.
