Hey there, social workers!
Tune in to Relational Practice with Dr. Jodie Park and Rose Mackey as they keep digging into how we assess parenting capacity. This episode, " Beyond the Checklist: Unpacking Informal Parenting Capacity Assessments" is all about the super important role of those daily interactions and observations. They're key to understanding what's going on with parents, guiding our casework, and figuring out the best ways to help.
Jodie and Rose chat about crucial observation skills, like checking out relationships, how people solve problems, manage emotions, and if their words match their vibe.
They wrap things up with a powerful real-life example, showing how those everyday observations and formal assessments come together to understand a mom's parenting capacity and her drive to make changes, especially when aiming for reunification.
