Essentials of Nursing Children and Young People

About this book

This innovative and student-friendly textbook provides up-to-date information on the core content of child nursing courses and helps students understand how it applies to practice. Covering all settings throughout, including the acute and community ones, it focuses on the importance of child and family centred care, by having them directly involved through the use of voices and case studies.

This book provides a comprehensive framework for student knowledge development by including:

  • Activities and theory stop-points to encourage students to develop their critical thinking skills.
  • Pointers to further reading resources, including journal articles and videos for students to explore and build knowledge more independently.
  • A range of online resources including extra scenarios for lecturers to use in their teaching and MCQs for students to revise.

Essential reading for undergraduate nursing students specialising or wanting to specialise in children and young people nursing.
