Abstract
Specialized knowledge and skills applicable to caring for children in foster care include guidelines developed to address this population's special health care needs, cross-system collaboration, and helping families cope with the health impacts of trauma. This paper begins with a review of the special health care needs of children in foster care and relevant guidelines. We discuss different models of health care delivery that can be employed to meet the special health care needs of children in foster care. We then provide examples of two programs employing different models of care that work collaboratively to deliver care to children in foster care in our community.
