Family-centered Care for Children Needing Specialized Health and Developmental Services
Author: Terri L. Shelton
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780937821879
Category : Child health services
Languages : en
Pages : 120
Book Description
This monograph articulates eight key elements of a family-centered approach to policy and practice for children needing specialized health and developmental services. An introductory section reviews the development of the first edition of the monograph in 1987 and its widespread dissemination and acceptance since that time. Each of the following eight chapters then addresses one of the following elements: (1) recognition that the family is the constant in the child's life, while the service systems and support personnel within those systems fluctuate; (2) facilitation of family/professional collaboration at all levels of hospital, home, and community care; (3) exchange of complete and unbiased information between families and professionals in a supportive manner; (4) respect for cultural diversity within and across all families including ethnic, racial, spiritual, social, economic, educational, and geographic diversity; (5) recognition of different methods of coping and promotion of programs providing developmental, educational, emotional, environmental, and financial supports to families; (6) encouragement of family-to-family support and networking; (7) provision of hospital, home, and community service and support systems that are flexible, accessible, and comprehensive in meeting family-identified needs; and (8) appreciation of families as families, recognizing their wide range of strengths, concerns, emotions, and aspirations beyond their need for specialized health and developmental services and support. Checklists for evaluating these elements are attached. (Contains 160 references.) (DB)

Material Motive
Author: J Smith
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781721577910
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 534
Book Description
Mystery lovers are in for a real treat as author J. Smith brings to life an exciting and fun new private investigator who threatens to upset every crime reader's favorite book applecart. Radell Hunter is funny, tough-as-nails, financially-challenged and creatively juggling a whole lot of balls in the air at once. A divorced single mother in her late 30s, she's a nontraditional crime sleuth in a world full of experienced biased men. In Material Motive, author J. Smith introduces readers to her main character's unusual weapons and techniques: an FBI Special Agent daughter named Dominique; Radell's closest gal pal Betty Jean (a local redneck's wife) and an on-again off-again friend Rosalie (a closet exerciser, who also happens to work at Hunter's favorite restaurant Mickey D's). And then there is Darrell, the male chauvinistic police chief friend that is constantly keeping the female crime-fighter out of jail (or helping her commit crimes that will put them both in it). And last, but certainly not least, is Radell Hunter's nemesis, Barb Butt -- who is appropriately named, but who can't decide if she wants to destroy the new P.I., or if she wants to become her. But all that aside, Hunter's latest client is a liar who has her chasing around after dead people, which turns out to be the least of her worries, as he is nothing compared to the 38-year-olds' own neighbors from Hell, who make it seem like battling killers is child's play compared to getting a great night's sleep in her own new house. Radell Hunter will make you laugh, relate and salivate all at the same time while she matches wits with the witless, nixes the nincompoops and pole-dances her stress away to Rod Stewart music in her P.I. office, where mayhem also reigns thanks to her cheapskate landlord and his motley crew of misfits that populate the building (legally and illegally). So, buckle up and get ready for the ride of your life in J. Smith's newest fictional series.
