Clinician Satisfaction and Self-Efficacy With CenteringParenting Group Well-Child Care Model: A Pilot Study

摘要

Introduction: Group-based models for well-child care have been shown to positively affect patient experience. One promising group well-child care model is CenteringParenting. However, clinician self-efficacy with delivery of the model is unknown and clinician satisfaction with the model has been understudied. Objectives: To investigate sense of self-efficacy, degree of satisfaction, and comfort with trauma-informed care (TIC) among diverse clinical providers implementing the CenteringParenting curriculum. We also examined the relationship between self-efficacy, satisfaction, and comfort with TIC, and delivery of the model. Methods: Electronic surveys were sent to CenteringParenting providers (N = 98) from 49 clinics. Providers (N = 41) from 24 clinical sites completed the survey, corresponding to a 42% individual and 49% site response rate. Surveys explored provider: satisfaction with the curriculum, perceived self-efficacy, and perspective on competency with TIC. Results: Providers indicated that the CenteringParenting model achieves each of its four objectives (means ranged from 4.10 to 4.52 for each objective, with 5 being the highest possible response). Providers rated their level of satisfaction (scale of 1 [unsatisfied] to 5 [very satisfied]) with their ability to address patient concerns higher with CenteringParenting in the group care setting (mean = 4.10) than in the individual care setting (mean = 3.55). Respondents demonstrated a high mean average Self-Efficacy in Group Care score of 93.63 (out of 110). Unadjusted logistical regression analyses demonstrated that higher provider Self-Efficacy in Group Care score (odds ratio [OR] = 1.08) and higher comfort with TIC (OR = 22.16) is associated with curriculum content being discussed with a facilitative approach. Conclusions: Providers from diverse clinical sites report high satisfaction with and self-efficacy in implementing the CenteringParenting model.
