This guidance only applies to the management of children aged 12 years or younger or with a developmental age of 12 years or younger. The aim of parent-training/education programmes is to improve parents’ or carers’ relationship with their child, and improve their child’s behaviour. The programmes are usually given in 2- hour sessions once a week for 8–12 weeks, in a hospital, community or home setting, either in a group or individually. The programmes are run by healthcare or social care professionals, or sometimes by suitably trained staff from voluntary agencies. The programmes teach parenting and communication skills, and help parents to learn to understand their own and their child’s feelings and behaviour.

This document has been developed to support the implementation of NICE guidance. The audit support has been produced in response to the report by the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Dementia entitled ‘Always a last resort’. The report found over-prescribing of antipsychotics in care homes is a problem, and recommended local and national audit of the use of antipsychotics for people with dementia in care homes. The objective of this audit is to measure current practice in dementia against the recommendations in the guideline. To do this the document includes criteria about the use of non-pharmacological interventions as well as those on the use of medication. The audit criteria and data collection tool are intended to be used as part of a local audit project, by either using the whole tool or relevant parts within a local audit template.
