Introduction: Early intervention services play a pivotal role in the management of children with developmental delays but the utilization of these is quite low. This study aims to explore the influence of parental perceptions on the utilization of these services.Material and Methods: This is a hospital based qualitative study of 31 parents having children with developmental delay in 2 or more domains who presented for the first time for diagnostic evaluation. A semi-structured questionnaire was used in the interviews, exploring various aspects of parental perceptions regarding the child’s disability and the services required for them.Results: Apart from factors like educational and socioeconomic status of parents, accessibility of the services there are other factors involved at the level of parents which influence their readiness and motivation to utilize a service, viz understanding of the total spectrum of a child’s disability by parents and how well their child care needs are fulfilled.Conclusion: The parents’ long term motivation for utilizing the services depends upon how well their idea of a futuristic goal for their child is being addressed.

Growing evidence supports the efficacious nature of early intervention (EI) services to children with developmental delays and their families. Pediatricians can play a crucial role in identifying developmental delays and referring families to EI services provided by each state, under Part C of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA). The goals of this article are to educate pediatricians about the benefits of EI services and resources available within their state to help facilitate family involvement in EI. By being involved in the EI process, pediatricians can work as partners with parents and multidisciplinary teams to provide seamless coordinated care to children and their families.

Stress Inventory

The effectiveness of an early intervention program to remediate developmental delays in children age birth to 3 years was examined in part- and full-time groups (Study 1). Significant improvements on age-appropriate measures of developmental standing were observed for both groups, with the greatest gains observed for the full-time group. In Study 2, the stress of parents with developmentally delayed children was measured on the Parental Stress Inventory. Reductions in stress related to children's characteristics and dysfunctional parenting skills were observed on some sub-scales, supporting prior research which indicated extension of the outcomes of early intervention beyond the child was desirable.
