Abstract | The final report describes Project Continuity, a federally funded effort to provide continuity of care for handicapped infants with chronic illness or complex medical needs while in the acute care setting and to facilitate transition of the infant into the home environment. Goals were accomplished within the context of a family-centered intervention model. The project provided habilitative, educational, nursing and medical care in various settings to 42 infants and toddlers with such diagnoses as congenital heart condition, gastrointestinal anomalies, genetic disorders, and muscular skeletal problems. Major project components included: (1) support for primary care nurses for incorporation of developmental strategies in nursing care plans for the hospitalized infants; (2) developmental assessment and intervention; and (3) case coordination. Quality assurance procedures required identifying national or local standards and monitoring the case coordination and nursing. Ten appendixes present such information as: the condition classification system, an Individualized Family Service Plan, the roles and sequence of activities for the case coordination process, a product dissemination flyer, and a workshop flyer. Contains 19 references. (DB) |
