Help with Friedman Family Assessment Model???

Published

I am in grad school and in my Family & Community class we have to do an assessment on a family using the Friedman Family Assessment Model (Long Form). I have been unable to find a link online that has this assessment form. All of the links take me to a boook that I can purchase that has the form, but no links to just the assessment form. Can anyone help???

I am doing a Family health risk appraisal and would love to have a template for an ecomap and/or genogram if anyone has one.

Here you go. This has a free 7 day trial period, and you can do your ecomap/genograms with it. It's a pretty cool program. If I remember correctly, you have to copy/paste into Paint to print out for some reason.

Thanks BBFRN for giving banynurse11 info for a trial! In our Family & Community class we were required to use the GenoPro genomap program for our Friedman Family Assessment Model. Our instructors sent us a password to enter that would give us a free 90 day trial for the program. Alot of us in the class did not like this program very much. Entering the information and getting the genogram moved around so that it would fit onto an 11X8 piece of paper was quite time consuming. However, the printed genogram turned out to be very nice. It was very detailed, colorful and easy to read.

I used the GenoPro myself, before I realized Smartdraw had the genogram, too. I know exactly what you mean, ccu.

Hi. Do you still have the ecomap and genogram templates? If so would you mind sending them to me? Thanks. Also, so do you have the Calgary family assessment form?

Yes, I feel all of the same sentiments as everyone on this thread...

Hello, were you able to find any help for the friedman family assessment on this page? I am a sophomore nursing student and we have been given an assignment to write about a family using this model, but we have not been given a whole lot of information on the model itself, what it it is, or how to use it. Any guidance would be soooo appreciated. Thank you!

I went to the library and got the original book from the 90's, but have yet to go through it.

From what I have found, you really need to have the book.

Good luck.

Apparently you are a pro and only person on the net that knows anything about Friedman and finding the short form info. Is there any way you could help a poor student out? I may be able to find that journal in my library but it would be a shot in the dark maybe. It's quite the challenge for us. Any ideas would be great!
