The skills required by children's nurses are many and varied, and are undertaken in a variety of settings. Sick children are cared for at home, in children's units and hospitals, and sometimes in adult wards. This book provides a clinical manual of common practices in children care.
This package provides you with the book plus the eBook - giving you the printed book, plus access to the complete book content electronically. Evolve eBooks allows you to quickly search the entire book, make notes, add highlights, and study more efficiently. Buying other Evolve eBooks titles makes your learning experience even better: all of the eBooks will work together on your electronic "bookshelf", so that you can search across your entire library of Nursing eBooks.
The skills required by children's nurses are many and varied, and are undertaken in a variety of settings. Sick children are cared for at home, in children's units and hospitals, and sometimes in adult wards. In addition, children with disabilities may need nursing care while at special schools or in residential settings. This book provides a clinical manual of common practices. Each practice is research-based and presented in a common format which covers:
Objectives
Rationale
Factors to note
Guidelines
Positioning
Equipment
Method
Special observations and possible complications
References and further reading
The guidelines have been written specifically for children's nursing by contributors from well-known children's units. They are not simply adaptations from adult practices and therefore recognise the unique differences between adult and children's nursing. The introductory section covers common concepts and infection control. There is also a chapter on complementary therapies and an appendix on the use of play as a distraction.
All hospital and community nurses dealing with children, whether at home, in specialised units or in community settings, will find the book of great practical help.
The common format of each practice makes the book easy to use and refer to in a clinical setting.
Each practice is based on the latest research to ensure it is evidence-based and up to date
Introductory chapters cover issues common to all practices to make the book easier to use.
The appendix on play reinforces its common usage as a distraction technique
A chapter on complementary therapies explains these as they are becoming more widespread
All practices have been reviewed by regional centres to avoid parochialism
Content reorganised to reflect the Essential Skills Clusters from the NMC
New chapter on communicating with children
All chapters updated to reflect the current evidence base
