Description

Recognizing and Helping the Neglected Child: Evidence-based Practice for Assessment and Intervention by Brigid Daniel and Jane Scott. Neglect is a common form of child abuse, but identifying its signs and responding effectively can be challenging. This book provides an evidence-based guide to recognizing neglect, assessing family and child needs, and implementing interventions. It also explores the role of practitioners in identifying and addressing neglect, including assessment, planning, and intervention strategies. The authors examine whether professionals are adequately equipped to recognize child neglect and propose a public health approach to prevent it. The book includes case studies and offers recommendations for policy and practice. With its focus on improving practice in this critical area, this book is essential reading for social workers, health visitors, teachers with safeguarding responsibilities, nursery staff, and educational psychologists who encounter child neglect. By understanding the signs of neglect and how to respond effectively, practitioners can make a positive difference in the lives of vulnerable children.
