title: Health visiting with Roy's model: a case study.
abstract: Tracheomalacia is a congenital disorder characterised by respiratory distress. The care for a 10 month old child with Tracheomalacia is assessed and planned using Roy's model. The importance of a structured approach to health promotion to meet the child's needs is explored. The roles of the health visitor and multidisciplinary team in meeting the child and family's needs are discussed. The constraints to providing optimal care are briefly discussed.
