Practitioners ’ Self-Assessment of Family-Centered Practice in Telepractice Versus In-Person Early Intervention

This study compared the self-assessed use of family-centered practices by a group of practitione rs delivering FCEI through telepractice with that of a similar group delivering FCEI in-person. A sample of 38 practitioners (15 telepractice and 23 in-person) from two early intervention programs for children who are DHH completed a self-assessment tool: the Measures of Processes of Care for Servic e Providers. Results indicated that there were no significant differences between telepractice and in-person sessions with regard to practitioners’ self-assessment of their use of family-centered practices.
