| Abstrakt: |
Over a ten year period a psychosocial risk scoring system for antenatal and perinatal use has been developed. A nine item questionnaire which can be administered by a range of health care personnel has been shown to predict future parenting problems. It has also been shown that the provision of special social interventions has been associated with a reduced likelihood of serious parenting failure, and that mothers who have been identified as being in a high risk group are likely to use such services when they are offered. We believe that by screening the whole obstetric population into no risk (78%) and some risk (22%) groups, limited social work services can be focused on areas of need. |
