INVESTIGATING OF ENROLLMENT OF PARENTS AT EARLY INTERVENTİON SERVICE AND THEIR CONTINUITY

Year 2020, Volume: 3 Issue: 2, 103 - 113, 31.12.2020

Abstract

Early childhood intervention services are recognized as the fundamental right of children and their parents under “The Declaration of the Rights of the Child”. Although the importance of early intervention services is known, there are some problems in the attendance of parents. The aim of the study is to examine the participation of parents who are directed/invited to early intervention support. The parental attendance of two different early intervention projects in 2018-2019 was examined. Sixty-eight (69.3%) parents of 98 of the low-risk group and 53 (96.3%) parents of 55 of the high-risk group accepted to participate in the study. Parents who rejected to participate EI often cited the problems of transportation and permission to work. Parents who dropped out cited problems of infections and permission to work. The present study examined the barriers to access early intervention services. It is important that most of the detected factors can be changeable.

Abstract

Erken çocukluk müdahale hizmetleri, “Cenevre Çocuk Hakları Bildirgesi” ile çocukların ve ebeveynlerinin temel hakkı olarak kabul edilmektedir. Erken müdahale hizmetlerinin önemi bilinmesine rağmen, ebeveynlerin katılımında bazı sorunlar bulunmaktadır. Çalışmanın amacı, erken müdahale desteğine yönlendirilen / davet edilen ebeveynlerin katılımlarını incelemektir. Çalışma kapsamında 2018-2019 yıllarında iki farklı erken müdahale projesine ebeveynlerin katılımları incelenmiştir. Düşük risk grubunda yer alan 98 ebeveynin altmış sekizi (% 69,3) ve yüksek risk grubunda yer alan 55 ebeveynin 53'ü (% 96,3) çalışmaya katılmayı kabul etmiştir. Erken müdahale programına katılmayı reddeden ebeveynler genellikle ulaşım sorunlarını ve iş yerinden iznin alamadıklarını gerekçe göstermişlerdir. Programı yarıda bırakan ebeveynler sıklıkla enfeksiyon riskini ve iş yerinden izin almada sorun yaşadıklarını belirtmişlerdir. Bu çalışma, erken müdahale hizmetlerine erişimin önündeki engelleri incelemiştir. Tespit edilen faktörlerin çoğunun değiştirilebilir olması önemlidir.
