SIMOES, Aida de Jesus Correia; LOPES, Saudade e DIXE, Maria dos Anjos. Risk factors for the development of children and young people referred at a commission for the protection. Rev. Enf. Ref. [online]. 2021, vol.serV, n.6, e20046. Epub 14-Set-2021. ISSN 0874-0283. https://doi.org/10.12707/rv20046.
Background:
Helping children at risk or in danger requires careful assessment to make a sustained and coherent decision.
Objectives:
To identify caregiver-related risk factors that jeopardize the lives of children and young people referred to a Commission for the Protection of Children and Young People (CPCJ).
Methodology:
This descriptive exploratory study with a qualitative approach was conducted between October and December 2018 with a sample of 20 case files of children/young people referred to a CPCJ. The information collected from the case files was analyzed using Bardin’s technique.
Results:
The majority of caregivers are the parents (54%). Neglect was the most common problem among the children referred to the CPCJ. The following risk factors were highlighted: the family’s financial conditions; needs inherent to the child’s development; discipline methods; communication problems; mental health problems; lack of extended family support; and family relationship patterns.
Conclusion:
Risk factors were identified that could contribute to the development of an instrument for a concerted assessment adjusted to the families’ needs.
