Abstract
Aims (1) identify and compare family-centered care (FCC) and collaborative goal-setting (CGS) beliefs and practices of out-patient pediatric physical therapists (PTs) in Saudi Arabia (SA) and the United States (US); (2) describe CGS approaches; and (3) determine the association between CGS practices and educational level, clinical experience, and FCC beliefs and practices. Methods 87 PTs completed an online survey. Results Ninety percent of PTs believed in FCC to a great extent. PTs in the US rated their organization's family-centeredness and their own FCC application significantly higher than PTs in SA. PTs believed in CGS with parents (86%) and children (66%) to a great extent while 69% of PTs reported applying CGS with parents to a great extent compared to 39% with children. PTs in SA rated the importance of determining therapy goals by PTs significantly higher than PTs in the US. The most selected CGS strategy was asking about concerns and needs. Low to moderate significant positive associations were found between CGS practices and PTs belief of their organization's family-centeredness and their own FCC application. Conclusion Similarities and differences were found between the two countries in FCC and CGS beliefs and practices. Organizational and individual FCC practices influence CGS practices.
