Abstract

The well-being of a child who has experienced abuse or neglect is dependent on whether or not an interdisciplinary, holistic treatment perspective is applied in the hospital setting. This paper examines the different interdisciplinary approaches used by two major hospitals, one in the United States and the other in Brazil, in their attempt to confront the social problem of child maltreatment.
