Summary

This study is a hybrid implementation-effectiveness trial of the Family Check-Up 4 Health (FCU4Health), an adapted version of the Family Check-Up, in pediatric primary care. Patients will be recruited based on their BMI as documented in the Electronic Health Record (EHR) and randomized to receive the FCU4Health or Treatment as Usual.

Detailed description

The FCU4Health is an assessment-driven, Motivational Interviewing (MI) based, parent training program. Parents and children complete a comprehensive assessment, including questionnaire and observation data. The FCU4Health coordinator reviews the assessment results with the parents, using MI strategies to create a tailored plan to address family needs. This plan may include referrals to community resources or parenting modules that focus on family management.
