Why is it important?

Field professionals applied the INTOVIAN tool for the identification of infants and toddlers at risk for family maltreatment, and evaluated whether the tool could be smoothly implemented in their professional everyday activities. This is important because somebody else id the job for you! The professionals said that the tool could be easily applicable, without disturbing their other heavy duties, and they found it useful in general. The INTOVIAN is freely accessible online!

Perspectives

The INTOVIAN is one of the few tools that allow field professionals an easy screening for infants and toddlers at risk of family abuse, and it is freely accessible online. If so many professionals from three European countries ahve evaluated it positively, I would try it myself!
