简要总结
The study evaluates the effectiveness of the WellWe-intervention in promotion of parental self-efficacy for healthy behaviors and mindfulness in parenting from the perspective of families. Aim is also to evaluate the effectiveness of the WellWe-intervention in facilitation of family-centered approach of the health visit in Child health clinic perceived by the families and Public health nurses (PHN). Half of the participants will receive WellWe-intervention and half of the participants will receive usual care.
详细描述
Families with pre-school aged children attend to regular health visits in Child health clinics on a yearly basis. During the health visits PHNs assess and promote the health and wellbeing of the whole family through health discussions.
In this study we aim to evaluate whether the addition of gamified method into the health discussion promotes healthy behaviors and mindfulness of the families and increases the family-centered approach of health visit compared to the traditional method.
WellWe-intervention includes the use of gamified WellWe app at home and during the health discussion in the Child health clinic. Usual care includes paper-based questionnaires filled by the parents and health discussion using these questionnaires in the Child health clinic.
