Zeanah and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 56 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The science of early development and our understanding of the impact of early experience on later social, emotional, and cognitive development has grown dramatically in the past three decades. Because the data are compelling and far-reaching, there has been increasing interest and concern about the quality of the infant's earliest experiences, and how those experiences shape the child's later development. The current state of knowledge should impact how every system that works with infants and families needs to contemplate and address the needs of our youngest citizens and their families (Shonkoff & Philips, 2000). In this report, the authors present an overview of infant mental health (IMH) and the principles that need to be considered when building systems to meet the social and emotional needs of young children. Because there are varying levels of needs for IMH services, as well as multiple ways in which children and families may access IMH services, and different pathways into the IMH service system, they describe a continuum of service delivery approaches that states can consider as they begin to develop and improve the performance of an infant mental health service system. Because IMH is a relatively new field of service delivery, evidenced-based guidelines about the most effective service delivery approaches are not always available, nor are there simple outcome measures. Thus, the authors present a number of suggestions about the organization and delivery of IMH services at the state level, as well as some of the problems that are likely to be encountered. Given the scarcity of trained IMH service providers they address training and workforce development. Because improving the delivery of IMH services requires better, evidence-based data, they also suggest outcome and evaluation needs. Finally, they address policy recommendations and strategies to achieve them. The following are appended: (1) Domains of the IMH Assessment; (2) Two States' Approaches to Developing Comprehensive Infant Mental Health Systems; (3) "Bottom Up" and "Top Down" Approaches to Building Early Childhood Systems of Care; and (4) Relevant Resources.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 16 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the past three decades, there has been an increase in knowledge about early childhood development. Early experiences can function as either risk factors or protective factors for a child's future health and development. This has led to concern about how current health systems contribute to the quality of the earliest experiences of life. Specifically, knowledge about child development has lead to a focus on mental health care services for young children. This report draws on existing research findings and makes policy recommendations for how to structure and implement mental health care systems that work with infants and families. This executive summary describes: (1) policy recommendations and strategies for implementation; (2) what "infant mental health" means; and (3) how to develop systems for delivering IMH services. The following are appended: (1) Continuum of Socioemotional Services within Primary Care; and (2) Elements of Creating a System of Care. (Contains 1 figure and 3 tables.)

Download or read book Research and Practice in Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health written by Cory Shulman and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-06-02 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book examines infant and early childhood mental health and the importance of early emotional and social development for later developmental trajectories. It incorporates research and clinical perspectives and brings research findings to bear in evaluating intervention strategies. By incorporating empirical developmental literature that is directly relevant to infant mental health and clinical practice, the book addresses the multiple forces which shape young children’s mental health. These forces include child factors, parental and familial variables, childrearing practices, and environmental influences. In addition, the book explores parent-child relationships, family networks, and social supports as protective factors, as well as risk factors such as poverty, exposure to violence, and substance abuse, which influence and change developmental processes. It shows that, by examining socio-emotional development in a cultural context, human development in the twenty-first century can be conceptualized through differences, similarities and diversity perspectives, focusing on the rights of every individual child.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health: Core Concepts and Clinical Practice is a groundbreaking book that provides an overview of the field from both theoretical and clinical viewpoints. The editors and chapter authors -- some of the field's foremost researchers and teachers -- describe from their diverse perspectives key concepts fundamental to infant-parent and early childhood mental health work. The complexity of this emerging field demands an interdisciplinary approach, and the book provides a clear, comprehensive, and coherent text with an abundance of clinical applications to increase understanding and help the reader to integrate the concepts into clinical practice. Offering both cutting-edge coverage and a format that facilitates learning, the book boasts the following features and content: A focus on helping working professionals expand their specialization skills and knowledge and on offering core competency training for those entering the field, which reflects the Infant-Parent Mental Health Postgraduate Certificate Program (IPMHPCP) and Fellowship in Napa, CA that was the genesis of the book. Chapters written by a diverse group of authors with vastly different training, expertise, and clinical experience, underscoring the book's interdisciplinary approach. In addition, terms such as clinician, therapist, provider, professional, and teacher are intentionally used interchangeably to describe and unify the field.

With the release of DSM-5, this chapter provides a prototypical crosswalk between DC:0-3R and ICD codes. A discussion of the difference between evidence-based treatments and evidence-based practices in the field, along with valuable information on randomized controlled trials, a research standard that, while often not feasible or ethically permissible in infant mental health work, remains a standard applied to the field. Key points and references at the end of each chapter, and generous use of figures, tables, and other resources to enhance learning. The volume editors and authors are passionate about the pressing need for further research and the acquisition and application of new knowledge to support the health and well-being of individuals, families, and communities. Infant and Early Childhood Mental Health: Core Concepts and Clinical Practice should find a receptive audience for this critically important message.
