Excerpts from family-centered care for children needing specialized health and developmental services.
In 1994, Family-Centered Care for Children Needing Specialized Health and Developmental Services was published. This monograph is the third revision of the 1987 landmark publication titled Family-Centered Care for Children with Special Health Care Needs. The revision incorporates several changes: the key elements of family-centered care are reworded for clarity; the order in which the elements are presented is changed to better illustrate their inter-relationships; new understandings about family-centered care are integrated; program examples are updated; and research findings are incorporated. The revised key elements of family-centered care are listed and described here in material excerpted from the 1994 monograph.
