ADAPT-HV


The Assessing and Describing Practice Transitions Among Evidence-Based Home Visiting Programs in Response to the COVID-19 Public Health Emergency (ADAPT-HV) project is funded by the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) through a contract with The Policy & Research Group (PRG) and Mathematica.


What is the purpose of this questionnaire? This questionnaire aims to understand home visitors’ use of strategies to conduct effective coaching when appropriate over each learning cycle of the ADAPT-HV study.


There are no risks or benefits to your participation. Your participation in this questionnaire is voluntary. You have the right to skip any question or end your participation at any time. There is no penalty if you choose not to participate in this questionnaire.


In order to know who has completed this questionnaire, we ask for your name and the name of the agency for which you work. This information will be removed when data are saved. We will not attribute any responses you give in the questionnaire to you personally and will not use your name when results from the research are shared. Only the research team will have access to individual responses. Your responses will be combined with other responses before results are reviewed. All data will be stored safely and destroyed at the end of the study.


The questionnaire should take roughly 10–15 minutes to complete.


If you have any questions about the study, please contact Teresa Smith at The Policy & Research Group ([email protected] or (225) 281-3783).

COACHING STRATEGIES IMPLEMENTED

This section asks about the number of families with whom you have implemented strategies to conduct effective coaching when appropriate during home visits over the past week (7 days).

The questions will reference the specific coaching strategies your site has identified to test during this learning cycle through the ADAPT-HV study. As a reminder, those strategies are listed below.
