Includes bibliographical references (leaves 67-72). The training and supervision of home visitors for the Parent Centre's Parent-Infant Home Visitation Programme (PIHVP) was evaluated. The evaluation aimed to determine whether training and supervision prepared the home visitors to deliver the PIHVP as intended. The supervision questionnaire measured home visitors' views on the extent to which group and individual supervision fulfil their educative, supportive and administrative functions, and the extent to which they felt supervision prepared them for visits. The training questionnaire asked them to rate the extent of their home visiting skills and knowledge a) before training and b) immediately after training. Interviews were also conducted with 27 past programme recipients, during which they were asked a) in which areas their home visitor assisted them, b) which assistance they found most useful and c) if there were any other areas in which they would like to have been assisted. 2015-01-04T14:36:48Z 2015-01-04T14:36:48Z 2009 Master Thesis Masters MSocSc http://hdl.handle.net/11427/11272 eng application/pdf Organisational Psychology Faculty of Commerce University of Cape Town
