Family Specialist Fidelity Evaluation

This sample fidelity assessment is part of the overall evaluation of Family Specialists in a Teaching-Family program. Family Specialists provide intensive, short-term, in-home treatment to families whose children have been or are about to be removed from their homes due to a variety of social or mental health problems.

The fidelity instrument is designed to assess the following dimensions: treatment planning, relationship development, teaching skills, clinical judgement, intervention progress, and record keeping.
