Why is Developmental Screening Important?

Why Developmental Screening is Important
• Developmental and behavioral guidance and surveillance have always been an integral part of care of young children. The use of standardized screens at specific ages builds and strengthens this long tradition.
• Parents expect their doctor to identify developmental and behavioral problems early and accurately and by integrating standardized screening you can better meet this expectation.
• Formalized, evidence-based screening
detects far more delays than surveillance alone. Developmental screening and appropriate referral are critical for school readiness and lifelong health.

Why Developmental Screening is Important
New York lags behind the rest of the country, ranking 49 out of 50 states in implementing developmental screenings. Implementing AAP recommendations across Nassau County can improve school readiness by identifying needs and providing necessary services at the earliest, most effective times, saving against intervention and remediation costs later.

Detection Rates
Without standardized, valid, reliable tool
With standardized, valid, reliable tool
• 30% of developmental disabilities identified
(Palfrey et al. JPEDS. 1994; 111:651-655)
• 70-80% with developmental disabilities correctly identified
(Squires et al., JDBP 1996; 17:420-427)

Common Barriers & Opportunities for Growth
Common barriers to developmental screening:
• Time• Office capacity • Comfort with referral process and
sources • Reimbursement
What are some barriers you can identify in your work place, and what are some ways to work through these barriers?

Accepting the Challenge!
• Change is never easy, and success in implementing change is dependent on perseverance. In order to persevere, you will need to accept the challenge that current practice–whatever that is for you—is inadequate.
• The literature on developmental screening implementation points to critical barriers in physician knowledge and attitudes towards screening. Without addressing these barriers it is difficult to implement change. 171919
