Abstract(s)
No presente estudo de caso, propusemo-nos descrever e avaliar o
acompanhamento que foi feito num programa de intervenção precoce
domiciliário, a uma criança com atraso de desenvolvimento psicomotor
e sua família.
O objectivo deste estudo foi perceber como é feito o acompanhamento
pela educadora e se as práticas implementadas são centradas na
família.
Para avaliar este programa, as sessões de apoio foram observadas ao
longo de 6 meses, utilizando-se técnicas de observação participante.
Foram também feitas duas entrevistas semi-estruturadas, no início e
no fim do programa, à mãe e à técnica de intervenção precoce.
Após a análise dos resultados obtidos concluímos que as práticas
implementadas por esta educadora são centradas na família. Durante
as sessões, os comportamentos que ocorreram com maior frequência
são os de interacção entre a mãe e a educadora em momentos de
“conversa” sobre o desenvolvimento da criança e diversos assuntos.
Os resultados deste estudo parecem evidenciar que as práticas
utilizadas pela educadora respeitam todas as recomendações relativas
à Intervenção Precoce.
ABSTRACT: The main purpose of this qualitative case-study research is to observe a home-basead early intervention program which was implemented with a child diagnosed with developmental delay and his family and evaluate the degree of family-centeredness. To evaluate this program, the support sessions were observed for 6 months, with participant observation techniques. We have also conducted 2 semi-structured interviews with the mother and the early intervention professional, in the beginning and at the end of program. We concluded that in this program, this pre-school teacher implemented family-centered practices. During the sessions the behaviours that occurred more frequently, were interactions between mother and early intervention professional, when they were speaking about child development and several other issues. The results of this study seem to show that the implemented practices follow all the recommended practices in early intervention
