Sometimes families are in special need of nursing intervention due to situational or developmental crises that go beyond the family's internal resources.Developmental crises occur as part of expected growth events that can take place during any developmental stage of the family or its individual members and include such situations as being displaced,hospitalization of a family member,domestic violence,and serious depression.Childbirth is a normal event that does not generally require special nursing intervention unless complications occur.
