GROUP DISCUSSIONS WITH PARENTS OF ILL CHILDREN

LUIGI LUZZATTI M.D.1 and BARBARA DITTMANN M.D.1

1 The Department of Medicine (Pediatrics), Children's Hospital of the East Bay, Oakland, Calif.

Group discussions with parents of diabetic children were started as part of the services offered in the Metabolic Clinic of the Children's Hospital of the East Bay, followed later by similar groups of parents of children with cerebral palsy. This approach to some of the delicate problems confronting parents of children with chronic disease and the children themselves was utilized in an attempt to solve some of the aspects of care that cannot be dealt with entirely in a one-to-one approach in a clinic or doctor's office. The technical aspects of such groups are presented and some of the significant points are discussed.
