    Author: Blatt SD, Saletsky RD, Meguid V, Church CC, O'Hara MT, Haller-Peck SM, Anderson JM.
    Journal: Child Welfare; 1997; 76(2):331-47. PubMed ID: 9062985.
    Abstract:
    Every community has children placed in the out-of-home care system. Despite a high prevalence of health, mental health, and developmental morbidity in children in care, most child welfare agencies have not provided adequate diagnostic and therapeutic services for these children. A comprehensive, multidisciplinary clinic for children in out-of-home care involving pediatrics, child psychology, nursing, child development, and child welfare is described. Profiles of the health, mental health, and developmental status of the children in out-of-home care are also presented.
