abstract="Health visitors have a vital role in identifying potential child abuse in high-risk families. Screening should be in three stages over the first nine months of the child's life; looking first at the broad checklist of social factors, later at the parents' perceptions of their child and family stress, and later still at the infant's behaviour and attachment. The abusive pattern is set in the first year. We need to intervene very early in parenting if we are going to have a preventive effect.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
