**The Role**
The new EPC is a dedicated facility to support mothers, fathers, parents, carers, families and their children up to four years of age. EPCs deliver a suite of core services, through a nurse-led multidisciplinary care team. High quality and safe EPC service delivery is best achieved through a workforce built on a strong nursing leadership team, including Maternal and Child Health (MCH) Nurses, that provides leadership and clinical oversight and support for the multidisciplinary clinical team.
The combined health and community services model is a strength of EPC service delivery, with a multidisciplinary team-based approach enabling the different disciplines to provide the right support and care to each family and child visiting an EPC.
EPCs recognise the health and wellbeing of mothers, fathers, parents and carers and the broader family impacts the child’s health, wellbeing and development. EPC services aim to enhance the parent-child relationship, and support mothers, fathers, parents, carers and families with strategies to achieve their parenting goals in areas like sleep and settling, parent attachment, child behaviour, and parent and child health and wellbeing. Parents and caregivers are provided with strategies to respond to the issue in real and extended time (e.g., supporting children to settle during the day or night). This is achieved through stepped up, more intensive support services, including a day stay program and residential program.
The Early Parenting Practitioner (EPP) is a valued and integral member of the EPC’s team. Working directly under the Associate Nurse Unit Manager, the EPP provides frontline care to families to assist in the establishment and maintenance of healthy parent-child relationships. The role assists parents in learning to care for their young children and themselves as parents, including establishment and maintenance of feeding, sleeping, rest, play and limit setting of behaviour, safety and hygiene.
All interventions are founded on a sound understanding of the enduring nature of attachment relationships for the healthy development of children into adulthood. The EPP establishes and maintains effective supportive, safe and welcoming learning environment for children and their parents. In addition, under supervision of the ANUM or Maternal and Child Health Nurse, they plan, organise, implement, guide and evaluate play and age-appropriate learning experiences for young children, encouraging parents to participate.
