Pediatric Hospital Admissions with Concern for Neglect: Correlations Between Neglect Types and Other Clinical and Environmental Risk Factors.

Our findings highlight five specific types of neglect seen in an impoverished and ethnically diverse geographic region. Post-discharge care needs should focus on removing social barriers and optimizing resources, in particular mental health, to mitigate the risk of continued neglect. Future studies should focus on prevention strategies, tailored interventions, and improved resource allocations per neglect type and discharge location.
