Abstract

The present study describes the efforts of a home visiting (HV) continuous quality improvement learning collaborative aimed at increasing father engagement in HV and parenting. Local implementing agencies (n = 11) delivering 3 evidence-based HV models participated in the collaborative. Each agency developed and implemented 3 rapid-cycle Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) projects to increase father engagement. Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Realistic, Time-bound (SMART) aims were used to guide development of change strategies and meaningful measurement goals. HV providers collected data from enrolled families (n = 714) about fathers' level of parenting and HV involvement. Mean father engagement scores increased 39% from the first to the second assessment and over 60% of the PDSAs met or exceeded their SMART aim goal. Data suggest that fathers are open to participating in HV and are responsive to parenting guidance. In the current paper, we share engagement strategies and lessons learned during the collaborative.

父亲参与家访：持续质量改进学习合作组织的研究结果。

本研究介绍了一个家访（HV）持续质量改进学习合作组织为提高父亲在家访和养育子女方面的参与度所做的努力。提供 3 种循证家访模式的当地执行机构（n = 11）参与了合作。每个机构都制定并实施了 3 个快速循环的 "计划-实施-研究-行动"（PDSA）项目，以提高父亲的参与度。具体、可衡量、可实现、现实、有时限（SMART）的目标被用来指导制定变革策略和有意义的衡量目标。保健志愿服务提供者从注册家庭（n = 714）中收集了有关父亲养育子女水平和保健志愿服务参与度的数据。从第一次评估到第二次评估，父亲参与的平均得分提高了 39%，60% 以上的 PDSA 达到或超过了 SMART 目标。数据表明，父亲对参与 "家庭责任 "持开放态度，并对育儿指导做出了回应。在本论文中，我们将分享参与策略以及在合作过程中吸取的经验教训。
