    Author: Stepanek JS, Ahmann E.
    Journal: Pediatr Nurs; 1995; 21(5):466-8. PubMed ID: 8684850.
    Abstract:
    Parents and family members may be unable to visit a hospitalized child frequently for any number of logistical or emotional reasons. Strategies to promote parent-professional collaboration when parents visit infrequently include: reaching out to both establish a relationship with family members and encourage their relationship with the hospitalized child; providing logistical support to facilitate visiting; and providing training and support for staff in family-centered care, including accepting diversity in family styles and choices.
