Focus on counselling: Children, caregivers and genograms in mother and father counselling
New approaches to counseling in mother and father counseling
In parent and child counseling (MVB), the focus is on supporting families during a child's first years of life. Specialists advise parents on issues of development, health, and parenting – taking into account not only the child's situation but also their environment and caregivers. To present this complexity clearly, the case management software developed by Comitas for MVB offers practical functions such as genograms and WHO developmental curves. Learn more about the basics. Find out here why digital case management is indispensable for MVB.
Digital registration of children and caregivers
A key element of the counseling process is the structured recording of information about children and parents. The parent counseling software allows for the documentation of basic data, developmental information, and counseling progress in one central location. Additional caregivers, such as grandparents or other support persons, can also be added. This creates a complete digital case file that remains accessible at all times.
Genograms for better overview
A particular highlight is the digital representation of genograms. These visualize family relationships at a glance and show how children and their caregivers are connected. For professionals, this significantly simplifies the analysis of family constellations and provides a better basis for counseling.
WHO curves for developmental documentation
Regular developmental data is crucial, especially in the first few years of life. MVB software integrates WHO growth and development curves (height, weight, head circumference) and automatically displays them graphically. This allows deviations to be identified early and directly incorporated into consultations.
More time for the actual consultation
The centralized and structured collection of all data eliminates the tedious task of gathering information from various sources. This frees up valuable time for professionals, which they can then invest in providing support to parents and children.
Conclusion: Efficiency gains through digital case management in maternal and paternal counseling
The digital case management software developed by Comitas makes maternal and paternal counseling even more effective: With genograms, WHO curves, and the clear recording of children and caregivers, it creates a solid foundation for well-founded counseling. The result is more precise analyses, better data quality, and greater efficiency in everyday practice – always with a focus on the well-being of children and their families.
