A parent carer is an adult primary caregiver for a child with a disability. Parent carers are at risk of poorer mental and physical health; targeted health promotion interventions are being developed, requiring evaluation. This study aimed to identify the important health and …

Developing services for a public health approach to child maltreatment
Calls for a public health approach to child maltreatment – a strategy that aims primarily to reduce risk factors for maltreatment - have been based on four main arguments. (O’Donnell et al . 2008; Reading et al. 2009; Barlow and Calam, 2011) The right of children to be protected from harm in the first place. The frequency of child maltreatment, which, if all occurrences were notified, would overwhelm child protection systems. The inaccuracy of id…
Consulting parents about the design of a randomized controlled trial of osteopathy for children with cerebral palsy
BACKGROUND: Although the UK Department of Health has advocated the involvement of service users and carers in health research for several years, there is little evidence about their contribution to the design of randomized controlled trials (RCTs). OBJECTIVE: To demonstrate how consulting parents about the design of a study, including which outcomes to use, led to the design and successful delivery of a RCT of osteopathy for children with cerebra…
