Here's a rough layout I put together for risk factor assessment.
1. Assess for natal and prenatal factors:
- Early or late birth
- Weight at birth
- Genetics
- Birth defects
- Medical conditions that slow development.
2. Continuing Developmental Assessment
- Monitor growth - height and weight
- Assess behavioral and cognitive responses against what is expected for the infant's age.
- Evaluate sleep patterns of the infant.
3. Sociological and Family
- Make sure special needs infants are under the care of specialists as needed.
- Interface with the parents, so they know what to expect and what to do.
- Make sure families are aware of social services options.
- Monitor and teach family to monitor failure to thrive.
- Schedule follow-ups - 6 over 24 months.
