language barriers, completion time and ease to complete the PARCA-R-Q. Parental views on the hybrid clinic model were explored. An electronic link to the feedback was sent after verbal consent. The survey was re-designed after a feasibility study done for the first 6 months Results 31 parents completed the feedback, 14 in the feasibility study phase and 17 afterwards. 77% were preterm,71% spoke English as their first language and 71% completed the PARCA-R-Q before attending the developmental clinic. 93% of the PARCA-R-Q was completed by mothers and 6.4% needed aid from healthcare professionals. 86% preferred face to face formal assessments. 84% thought the PARCA-R provided ideas encouraging their child's developmental growth. However, 45% thought that the questionnaire needs improvement and is only somewhat useful. Conclusion The implementation of the PARCA-R questionnaire has been a positive change, empowering parents/guardians in the assessment of their child and providing them with ideas to boost the child's development. However, a significant number preferred face to face formal assessments. This is the first pilot data on parental feedback on the PARCA-R-Q. Further data with a larger cohort is needed to quantify the results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
