Home Assessments - Nurses and Referrals

Submitted by Brandy on 1 February 2012 - 3:17pm

Do you know of any programs that have used nursing students for home environmental assessment with the EPA assessment tool?  If so, were the families receiving home visits referred by hospital ERs, physician offices, school nurses?  

Any suggestions for how to get families interested in the home environmental assessments?

The results which you showed on the webinar ("selected outcomes") were very iimpressive. I didn't catch whether you said how many home visits were performed prior to evaluating improvements. Could you tell us more about what the level of engagement with the families was prior to seeing these results?

Awesome presentations! Thanks so much.
