Abstract

Objectives

Home-based parenting programs have demonstrated impact on the prevention of child maltreatment, promotion of child screening and health care, and increased school readiness. However, cost and time resources make access to home-based parenting programs limited. Telehealth delivery systems may help to fill this gap, reducing barriers and expanding the reach of home-based parenting programs.

Methods

This manuscript describes a pilot feasibility study focusing on model fidelity for delivering a home-based parenting program (Parents as Teachers) via a university-based telehealth interactive video conferencing technology.

Results

Results indicate that the program was able to meet all fidelity measures related to supervision, training, and curriculum delivery. On average, families remained in the program for 5 months and received 11 personal visits, indicating that engagement via a computer mediated program is shorter but more intense than on-ground models.

Conclusion

Issues of recruitment and retention are described along with recommendations for using the continuum of care and social media to increase access to home based parenting programs services.
