Abstract

This article is written to help home care providers adapt their assessment and care skills to fit thepsychosocial needs of their young clients and efficiently accomplish the goals of the visit. Home care providers caring for children must use their judgment and complex decision-making skills because often they are the only clinicians in the home. To accurately assess children of various ages, home care providers need to understand the general guidelines for establishing a rapport with them and the variations in child psychosocial development.
