Abstract
Children with disabilities and their families experience a wide array of problems. In order to
better respond to their needs, 81 families have been studied, by collecting and analysing both
quantitative and qualitative information. A number of problems emerge from this analysis:
poor communication between the health and social services, the parents, poor links with
and support by the community; disparity in attention experienced by the siblings and consequent
unease and uncertainties; parents feeling overwhelmed and left alone. Paediatricians
and other health professionals need to be aware of all these aspects and to get more involved
in the coordination and facilitation of integrated care to the families of children with severe
disability.
