Research Abstract |
We conducted the mail survey in order to clarify the collaboration and coordination that aims to prevent the abuse from high-risk children between the medical institutions and the community health organizations. The subjects were three hundred nineteen coordinators of Perinatal/Regional Maternal and Children's Medical Center. As a result, most coordinators had collaborated with the partners in the community health organizations to prevent the abuse from high-risk infants. The interview research was also conducted to explore the factors that enable public health nurses (PHNs) to collaborate with the partners of relevant organizations. We selected two prefectural public health centers, one health center in Tokyo Metropolis, and two city health centers. Because we made sure by the literature review that PHNs of these centers had constructed the useful community support network for preventing the child abuse. Participants were eight PHNs of those centers. Data were collected through 5 in-depth interviews that explore participants’ experiences about collaboration with the partners during the process of constructing the useful network. These were identified as the important factors that PHNs participate in the planning department and PHNs exert the coordinating function as the professional.
