A Practical Guide to the Evaluation of Child Physical Abuse and Neglect
Child abuse and neglect, child maltreatment, and child victimization are inter- changeable terms that refer to a major public health problem confronting children and families. Abuse manifests when the child or adolescent’s caregiver fails to pro- vide for the youth’s health and well-being either by causing an injury or, as in neglect, by not meeting a basic need. Because of the multifaceted nature of abuse, a comprehensive definition of child abuse and neglect draws upon information from a number of disciplines and a variety of professionals.
