The purpose of this evaluation was to document (a) the level of patients’ satisfaction with use of a personal parent-held child health record (PHCHR), (b) their frequency of using it for specific reasons, (c) behavior changes participants made due to use of this record, and (d) perceived barriers to using the PHCHR. Eighty-two mothers completed the 22-item validated evaluation instrument. Patients reported high levels of satisfaction with all applicable use of the PHCHR. Respondents believed the PHCHR was a useful tool that served as a cue to increase their action in health seeking behaviors. Healthcare providers may consider use of PHCPR for pregnant women and mothers of young children. |
