November 7, 2017. I worked in Anthony Annex office. We conducted a prenatal home visit. The participant is in her first trimester. We provided her education about healthy behaviors in pregnancy.

    Screening has been used within the NHS for many decades and is a process that enables the health professional to highlight healthy members of the population that could potentially have a health related problem (UK National Screening Committee 2008). The NIPE is a head to toe examination that will enable a practitioner to detect in an apparently healthy baby any abnormality that can then be referred onto the appropriate professional for further investigation. This can then improve the newborns future health by providing early intervention and prevention of further complications (DOH 2009). It particularly…

    Competency Goal 8

    As an Early Head Start teacher, I utilize two developmental screening tools, the Brigance Screens and the Ages and Stages Questionnaire, to determine if there are any potential developmental delays present in the children participating in my program. I allow the child to become comfortable in the program before administering these tools, typically using them when the child has been enrolled at least a month. In order to gain maximal benefit and assist in the individualization of my program, I make sure that these tools are administered and scored within the first 45 days of attendance. If a child scores low on the first screening, I notify the parents and work with the child to see if I can strengthen skills in the area(s) where there is a deficit. I then conduct the screening again about 60 days later. If there is skill a concern at this point, I hold a conference with the child’s parents and make a pre-referral to the Special Needs/Mental Health Coordinator for Head Start/Early Head Start.…

    Examination of the Newborn

    The purpose of this assignment is to explore the issue surrounding screening and examination of the new born from birth. The article will look at why we perform this examination following birth and will pay particular attention to the examination of the eye. It is documented that the purpose of the first examination of the new born is to confirm normality and to provide reassurance to the parents (MacKeith, 1995, Hall, 1999) and also to identify any apparent physical abnormality (Buston and Durward 2001). However the question that we may wish to consider is ‘what is normal in a neonatal who is undergoing major physiological adaptations to extra uterine life (Blackburn and Loper, 1993) ? How as midwives can we fulfil this expectation of norm, when there is, as Hall (1999) suggests no confirmation of normality available ? Nevertheless a thorough search of the literature suggests that the neonatal examination is universally accepted as ‘good practice’, and any deviation from this practice could perhaps, potentiate negligence when subjected to the Bolam test (Sherratt, A, 2001). This test is often used as a benchmark to measure any negligence by, and examines if another professional of same standing would act in the same manner.…
