The first edition of this authoritative textbook has become the key
text for a wide audience of providers and facilitators of care and
treatment through childhood. It is essential reading for child
health professionals and is still the only text in this important
area. This exciting new edition is again structured into four main
sections: 'Organisational facets'' 'Philosophical issues',
'Dimensions of practice', and 'Advancing practice', and has been
expanded to include detailed guidance on the commissioning and
resourcing of services. It provides essential information for
implementing the requirements of the children's National Service
Framework that will support the expansion of Community Children's
Nursing and enable it to move forward and away from fragmented
service delivery. Bringing together the work of some of the most
distinguished experts in the field, there is comprehensive coverage
of the key aspects of Community Children's Nursing, including
multi-disciplinary/interagency planning; provision of nursing
services to sick children and their families in a range of
community setting; and the needs of both the recipients and
providers of care within the trajectory of acute, life-limiting and
terminal illness. This edition provides invaluable knowledge for
all professionals and students involved with Community Children's
Nurses wherever sick children and their families receive care or
treatment, including health visitors, school nurses, district
nurses, social workers, acute bases nurses, mental health nurses,
learning disability nurses, GPs, commissioners and managers of
