Reader accompanying the new Framework <br>
2) I believe that all case files should have a Critical Incident File at the <br>

freed from all the vast accumulation of detail that files inevitably gather, <br>
can give a readily available overview of the <u>pattern</u> of events. A

very persuasively. <br>

Just one quick comment on the choices available to parents involved with
CPS. Families are referred to CPS for all sorts of reasons and with varying
levels of severity of abuse. Some forms of abuse require immediate removal
and a case plan that requires the parents to perform certain tasks before
reunification can occur. Thus, limiting the options available to the family
involved. However, families who commit some form of low-level abuse that
does not involve an immediate life-threatening injury or who have come to
the attention of CPS for the first time may have a wide range of options
available to them. Whether families perceive those "options" to be options
has a great deal to do with the caseworker-client relationship. This is
where motivational interviewing can be very helpful in engaging families in
a process of examining and pursuing options available to them and at the
same time preventing the frustration and burn-out that many caseworkers feel
when they encounter "resistant" families.

While the basic tenet of Bill Miller's work - that denial is a
process created by client/therapist interactions and not a
personality trait or defense mechanism of the client - is likely
to apply across a wide range of human services I am unsure of
how transferable motivational interviewing will be from the
addiction field into CW.
MINT assumes that specific cognitive structures underpins the
addictive behaviour and by reshaping these, motivation for
behaviour change can be improved. However, our knowledge of
the cognitive processes underlying child maltreatment or poor
parenting are less well developed. For example, MINT requires an
increase in self-efficacy. It is my understanding that the
empirical research on parenting self-efficacy or self-efficacy
and child maltreatment is limited. I am uncertain as to what
techniques are required to improve parenting self-efficacy and
how effective they are. Are they the same as those presented in
the addictive behaviour model of MINT?
Also, MINT assumes that the decision to change is the
responsibility of the client, that the client has real choices,
and accessible and effective means of behaviour change can be
offered. Within CW this may not always be the case, rather
protection plans may be required, in which the client has little
choice. I am not sure how this effects MINT.
However, I do agree with the point that there is a tremendous
potential within MINT for CW service. However, more research is
need regarding the translation of MINT into the CW setting.
