“…Hence, knowledge about the number of children exposed to this type of disadvantage has only recently begun to reflect the actual depths of the issue. The additional advantage of this initiative is that specialist homeless services are often the first to know when children are at risk of abuse, neglect or disconnection from other services, suggesting that closer integration with authorities may help them to intervene faster (Flatau et al, 2018;Hudson et al, 2014;Parry & Abbott, 2017;Parry & Abbott, 2018;Parry et al, 2009;Parry & Willis, 2013;Pennsylvania Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics, 2014). However, until such service link ups are more integrated, interventions tied to specialist homeless services (such as the Nurse Practitioner model of care) cannot provide immediate health interventions (AAP, 2013;AIFS, 2012;AIHW, 2012AIHW, , 2017Bedford et al, 2013;Davidson et al, 2018;Duncan et al, 2010;Goldfeld et al, 2017;Hurley et al, 2018;Parry, Grant, & Burke, 2016;Pungello et al, 2010;Sandstrom & Heurta, 2013;Smith Family, 2019).…”
