Well Child Developmental Assessment Paper Guidelines
Students will conduct a developmental assessment met in a home setting to identify
factors influencing a child's development.
WELL CHILD DEVELOPMENTAL ASSESSMENT PAPER (20%)
Each student will conduct a pediatric developmental assessment in order to
facilitate his/her learning of the multiple, predictable aspects of a child's growth and
development. The student will also assess the child's home environment to identify some
of the factors influencing the child's development. Following the visit, a written paper
will be due which will include physiologic and psychosocial assessment data, goals for
the child and family, interventions, and recommendations.
I.
PROCEDURE FOR THE VISIT
Identify a well child (1 month – 10 years of age) either in a home or school
environment. The child should not be a member of the student's immediate family.
For home visits, you will be conducting a developmental and a home assessment for a
child birth to 10 years of age. For school students, you may conduct a systematic
assessment of their developmental status and identify environmental factors located in
the school which are aimed at stimulating their development.
Some suggested parameters to include:
a) birth date, age, and gender
b) growth parameters - use growth charts based on the
➢ For children < 2 years, use the Birth to 36 months 3rd-97th percentile
forms and plot the following on the chart:
o length for age
o weight for age
o head circumference for age
o weight for length
➢ For children > 2 years, use the 2-20 years 3rd-97th percentile forms and
plot the following on the chart:
o stature for age
o weight for age
o BMI for age
c) nutritional status
d) development – remember the different aspects of development
e) family
➢ Who lives in the home and what are their roles with the child?

➢ What influences do they have on the child's development?
➢ Is the child cared for outside of the home and what impact does that have
on the child and his/her family?
f) home environment or school assessment–
➢ include safety issues that may not be covered by this tool, i.e.: guns in
home, helmets w/ bikes, harmful chemicals within reach, etc.
2) ANALYSIS OF DATA
a) Interpret the child's growth percentiles.
b) Describe and interpret child developmental findings. Select at least two
developmental theorists and compare the child's development.
c) Assess the child’s environment in the areas of cognitive and social
emotional support, safety, nutrition, and list factors that facilitate or inhibit
the child's growth and development. Or, if school based, describe
environmental factors you have identified that are stimulating the child’s
development
d) Discuss problems to be addressed, nursing diagnoses, and needs. If there
are no problems, discuss anticipatory guidance needs.
3) GOALS - for child and family
4) INTERVENTIONS OR RECOMMENDATIONS - to maintain and promote growth,
development and health of the child. Include documented rationale.
