Annotation: The goal of this project was to enable families to provide home-centered care for their special needs children, when home was the best option, by establishing a service delivery system. This system: (1) Promoted the availability and accessibility of comprehensive quality services that address physical, psychosocial, spiritual, and developmental needs; (2) encouraged continuity and coordination of care among all components of the child and family's interdisciplinary team; (3) promoted communication among caregivers; and (4) was reimbursable, accountable, and responsive to changing needs.

Palfrey J. 1991. State Census of Technology-Dependent Children [Final report]. Boston, MA: Children's Hospital, 28 pp.

Annotation: This study was a census of all children defined as depending on extraordinary nursing services on a daily basis. Because this study was longitudinal, investigators were able to trace the prevalence of these conditions over time and look at changes within device use or in specific diseases, as well as changes in the etiologies of medical dependency. These data should be useful for program planning purposes as well as for tracking preventable causes of long-term disability. [Funded by the Maternal and Child Health Bureau]
