How this E-Learning Course is Organized
This online curriculum seeks to share knowledge, videos and handouts for pediatric care providers to develop a deeper understanding of the elements of healthy relationships and how best to support the parent-child relationship within the clinic setting. The social-emotional needs of children and their parents and a relationship-focused approach to feeding, sleep, and development are reviewed. The course offers a paradigm shift in understanding and supporting challenging behavior in children. Provider Tip Sheets for each Well Care Visit through 24 months and handouts for caregivers are also included.
