[Parent counseling by the patient care and guidance team on a child psychiatry unit].
A psychoeducational approach of the nursing staff's work with parents is presented. By offering a family visit to the unit prior to admission, systematic preparation of the admission process, reflected interactions with parents during their visits, by parents' evenings and parents' weekends, the nursing team makes a distinct contribution to the families' treatments. Pros and cons are dealt with, concerning issues of professional self-image, goal planning of the team as a whole, structures of team conferences, and supervision. As to evaluation, some parameters (incidence of dismissals for reasons of discipline, withdrawal of children against medical advice, patients referred to care of public authorities after treatment) are discussed for their usefulness.
