Fundamental aspects of children's and young people's nursing procedures - Alan Glasper

Change is occurring from a variety of angles that clearly impact not only on healthcare provision on the wider scale, but also the grass roots of individual children's nurse practitioners.
This book embodies the knowledge of numerous nurses working with children and young people, and its primary purpose is to provide information on the fundamental aspects and essential requirements of nursing care for children, young people and their family or carer. The child or young person is an integral member of the family. Children and young people's nursing care is most effective when it is integrated with the value and belief that family-centred care is crucial.
This book is remarkable for its honesty about the essential and fundamental aspects of nursing care of babies, children, young people and their families or carers.
The book is designed to support the learning needs of nurses, not only by virtue of its design, but also by the level of knowledge acquisition it facilitates.
This book provides a sensible compromise between a lengthy discussion of basic sciences on the one hand, and a didactic handbook on the other. It will be an excellent source of information for nurses learning about caring for babies, children, young people and their families and carers, and a useful reference for experienced nurses working with children and young people.
