“…Similarly, control children reported a comparable increase in receipt of a written AAP as the INT group. This suggests that the control group caregivers may have benefited from three nurse home visits that provided asthma education and increased self-management support for their child’s asthma, as noted in prior home-visiting programs [28]. Anecdotally, the nurses in our study reported that families in both groups were highly receptive to home visits and a strong relationship of trust, open communication and shared decision making developed between caregiver and nurse over two-three visits.…”

Objectives Rates of preventive asthma care after an asthma emergency department (ED) visit are low among inner-city children. The objective of this study was to test the efficacy of a clinician and caregiver feedback intervention (INT) on improving preventive asthma care following an asthma ED visit compared to an attention control group (CON). Methods Children with persistent asthma and recent asthma ED visits (N = 300) were enrolled and randomized into a feedback intervention or an attention control group and followed for 12 months. All children received nurse visits. Data were obtained from interviews, child salivary cotinine levels and pharmacy records. Standard t-test, chi-square and multiple logistic regression tests were used to test for differences between the groups for reporting greater than or equal to two primary care provider (PCP) preventive care visits for asthma over 12 months. Results Children were primarily male, young (3–5 years), African American and Medicaid insured. Mean ED visits over 12 months was high (2.29 visits). No difference by group was noted for attending two or more PCP visits/12 months or having an asthma action plan (AAP). Children having an AAP at baseline were almost twice as likely to attend two or more PCP visits over 12 months while controlling for asthma control, group status, child age and number of asthma ED visits. Conclusions A clinician and caregiver feedback intervention was unsuccessful in increasing asthma preventive care compared to an attention control group. Further research is needed to develop interventions to effectively prevent morbidity in high risk inner-city children with frequent ED utilization.

“…First, they occurred in areas which the nurses delivering the programme had independently identified as the areas where they considered that mothers received the greatest benefit. 24 The Family Partnership Model places emphasis on using high-quality nurse-mother relationships to help mothers adapt to their social and psychological circumstances and to enhance mother-child relationships. 16 It is plausible that the benefits of this approach were reflected in changes to the PSI Attachment and Role Restriction scores.…”

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effects of a postnatal home-visiting programme delivered by community health nurses to socially disadvantaged mothers in South Australia.DesignThe intervention group of 428 mothers lived in metropolitan Adelaide and the comparison group of 239 mothers lived in regional towns where the programme was not yet available. All participating mothers met health service eligibility criteria for enrolment in the home-visiting programme. Participants in both groups were assessed at baseline (mean child age=14.4 weeks SD=2.3), prior to programme enrolment, and again when the children were aged 9, 18 and 24 months.SettingState-wide community child health service.Participants667 socially disadvantaged mothers enrolled consecutively. 487 mothers (73%) completed the 24-month assessment.InterventionTwo-year postnatal home-visiting programme based on the Family Partnership Model.Primary outcome measuresParent Stress Index (PSI), Kessler Psychological Distress Scale and the Ages and Stages Questionnaire.ResultsMixed models adjusting for baseline differences were used to compare outcomes in the two groups. The mothers in the home-visiting group reported greater improvement on the PSI subscales assessing a mother's perceptions on the quality of their relationship with their child (1.10, 95% CI 0.06 to 2.14) and satisfaction with their role as parents (0.46, 95% CI −0.15 to 1.07) than mothers in the comparison group. With the exception of childhood sleeping problems, there were no other significant differences in the outcomes across the two groups.ConclusionsThe findings suggest that home-visiting programmes delivered by community health nurses as part of routine clinical practice have the potential to improve maternal–child relationships and help mothers adjust to their role as parents.Clinical Trial RegistrationAustralian and New Zealand Clinical Trials Registry ACTRN12608000275369.

“…The HC can be recognized as a potential for greater approximation of professionals with the community (5) , allowing better use of available social resources and the community resolute potential. Thus, the knowledge of social networks with a collaborative role for health of individuals is believed to enable the health professional to promote a more comprehensive care, based in the needs and everyday realities, propitiating autonomy to subjects (6)(7)(8) .…”

Gomes IM, Lacerda MR, Mercês NNA RESUMENObjetivo: Construir un modelo teórico que configure la vivencia del apoyo de la red social por las personas en cuidado domiciliario. Método: Estudio de abordaje cualitativa, con la utilización del método Teoría Fundamentada en los Datos. La recopilación y el análisis concomitante de los datos hizo viable la interpretación del significado del fenómeno La vivencia del apoyo de la red social por las personas implicadas en el cuidado domiciliario. Resultados: Se destacó la postura pasiva de la población en la construcción de su bienestar. Reconociendo que debe existir una responsabilidad compartida entre las partes implicadas, población y Estado. Conclusión: Se sugiere que los enfermeros sean estimulados a ampliar el cuidado que realizan en el domicilio para atender las demandas de los cuidadores; y que sean elaborados nuevos estudios con distintas poblaciones, con el fin de validar o complementar el modelo teórico propuesto.
