Description:

The Southwark specialist family focus team have shared their parenting assessment tool which is used to determine the level of support required for parents/carers when they have been referred to their team.  The assessment tool informs the service delivery plan which is agreed in partnership with the parent/carer and where appropiate with partner agencies, and can be used with an individual parent or a whole family.  The assessment tool can be used with parents/carers on statutory parenting order or with on voluntary intervention to support the enhancement of parenting skills.

Once the assessment is complete, a formal report is completed.  Southwark specialist family focus team have shared their guidance on report writing when completing assessments as well as the report template.
