Book Description
Children and Their Families: The Continuum of Care provides a unique interdisciplinary perspective that underscores the nurse’s role in planning, coordinating, and working with all members of a pediatric health care team. It shows students how to make critical judgments and assessments to manage the care of children in a variety of community settings, including homes, schools, and medical centers. From infancy through adolescence, this text thoroughly covers the health promotion, surveillance, and maintenance needs of children. In this edition, threaded case studies follow a community of pediatric clients and continue throughout the chapter to show the interrelated dynamics of pediatric nursing care. A companion Website includes journal articles, NCLEX[registered]-style chapter review questions, a Spanish-English audio glossary, Watch and Learn videos, a fluids and electrolytes tutorial, and much more.
Editorial Reviews
Review
— “I like the ease of reading and the level of difficulty. My students often complain of not understanding the chapter content. I especially like the family coping tables. It is very good to see it arranged in that fashion.” — “Very clear wording, easy to read understand.” –“Very easy to read and follow author’s train of thought. Did a stellar job in explaining the more difficult information. Did not waste time with text that was easy to understand.”
