Abstract:
The Alberta Child Health Passport was developed to provide parents and health professionals with a shared record of the child's health, growth, development, immunization and contacts with health services. A structured evaluation of the passport, and survey of the views of mothers and community nurses using it was carried out. The need for such a record was confirmed by those questioned. Responses also helped to identify sections of the booklet that are particularly useful and those which might be modified or removed. The passport is seen as having considerable advantages in improving the relationship between health professionals and clients.
