In 1991, the National Center for Children in Poverty undertook a study of low-income parents as child care consumers. The study involved a review of current research findings, interviews with staff of child resource and referral agencies, and an examination of child care consumer education provided in the Job Opportunities and Basic Skills (JOBS) program. This report presents the results of these inquiries. Chapter I identifies sources of consumer information on child care. Three public subsidy programs discussed are the Family Support Act, Child Care and Development Block Grant, and the Title IV-A At-Risk Child Care Program. Chapter II considers parents as child care consumers, examining the ways parents search for child care, the kinds of child care families use and the kinds they really want, and the child care characteristics that satisfy parents. In chapter III, the same issues are examined with respect to low-income parents. In addition, constraints facing low-income child care users, including transportation problems, time constraints, lack of money and expertise, and problems related to cultural differences, are discussed. Finally, chapter IV focuses on the provision of child care consumer education, identifying essential program features, points in time when consumer education should be provided, delivery methods, and information provided to JOBS participants. The JOBS child care consumer education report is appended. (AC)

People with developmental disabilities (DD) overwhelmingly rely on family caregivers to provide the support they need at home and in the community, often because of limited funding, long waiting lists for paid services, and more recently a dangerous shortage of paid caregivers. Family caregivers experience physical, social, and psychological demands of the extended caregiving they provide and have poorer health outcomes, negative impacts on their financial well-being, and higher incidence of stress and depression than non-caregivers. Family Supports (FS) programs provide services and other resources designed to help individuals with disabilities remain living in their family homes (Freedman et al., 2000; Heller et. al., 1999). These programs often offer flexible but limited funding for services and are consumer-directed in that individuals with DD and their families can decide which services they want to access, and in which amounts within their funding allowance. Given the significant demands on family caregivers over the lifetime of a person with a developmental disability, FS programs must be considered a viable option to provide at least some support to people who may be waiting for other funding options. In some states, FS programs may not be available or may be underutilized. This study was designed to understand the factors that influence people to utilize (or not utilize) a FS program, and to measure how useful FS program services are to people with DD and their families. Research questions also asked if there were relationships between satisfaction and demographic characteristics or specific need factors of people served. Using both a phenomenological approach and Andersen's behavioral model (1995) as a framework, the study employed an explanatory sequential practical action research model, consisting of a quantitative survey followed by qualitative interviews to expand on the quantitative findings. Participants included family caregivers of individuals with DD currently and previously enrolled in a FS program administered by one agency in a large metropolitan area in a Midwestern state in the U.S. Both participants enrolled in the program and those previously enrolled gave similar ratings (helpful or very helpful) to program services, were satisfied or very satisfied with the FS program, and willing to recommend it to others. Participants did give overall higher ratings of service usefulness than non-participants, which may explain why non-participants are no longer enrolled in the program. Program participants specifically rated the services of camp and incontinence supplies as more useful than non-participants, which may have been related to the timing of the research post-COVID pandemic when these surveys were in high demand and low supply. Participants also provided helpful suggestions for FS program improvement to improve ease of access to services, allow for greater self-direction, and include ongoing feedback of caregivers and participants in future FS program decisions.

Learn how public policies can help families provide the care their elderly relatives need Family and Aging Policy examines how public initiatives to assist the elderly in the United States, Canada, Singapore, Denmark, and Sweden can impact families who provide them with long-term care. For the majority of older people, the aging experience involves their families directly and indirectly, affecting income security, housing, and health care. This unique book addresses the aging issues that matter most to families struggling to deal with the demands of care giving and provides answers on how the public sector can help. As the traditional nuclear family becomes a memory and the notion of extended family disappears, the need for public interventions to help the elderly increases. A significant number of people grow old without families they can depend on. Others have families who want to help, but lack the financial means or the housing needed to provide care. Family and Aging Policy offers options on how families and formal services can share responsibilities, including how families can juggle jobs and care giving, the effects of the Family and Medical Leave Act, consumer-directed service options, community-based care programs, accessory dwelling units and zoning ordinances, and provisions for caregiver support in each of the 50 United States and the District of Columbia. Family and Aging Policy examines: extensive welfare programs in Sweden publicly funded home care programs in Denmark family-oriented social policies in Singapore shared responsibilities of families and formal services in Canada the Administration on Aging’s National Family Caregiver Support program in the United States California Caregiver Resource Centers and much more! Family and Aging Policy is an invaluable tool for researchers and policy analysts working in family policy issues and as an essential supplemental text for course work in gerontology, sociology, family relations, and social work.

"Nurses play a vital role in improving the safety and quality of patient car -- not only in the hospital or ambulatory treatment facility, but also of community-based care and the care performed by family members. Nurses need know what proven techniques and interventions they can use to enhance patient outcomes. To address this need, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ), with additional funding from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, has prepared this comprehensive, 1,400-page, handbook for nurses on patient safety and quality -- Patient Safety and Quality: An Evidence-Based Handbook for Nurses. (AHRQ Publication No. 08-0043)." - online AHRQ blurb, http://www.ahrq.gov/qual/nurseshdbk/
