book of this quality would benefit a broader readership.

" . . "Safeguarding Children and Young People, a Guide for
Nurses and Midwives'" is an excellent book which I would have no
hesitation in recommending to nursing and midwifery colleagues. It
is both thought provoking and informative, providing what I
consider to be a useful reference which can be utilised to help
staff understand more clearly (and thus respond more confidently
to) some of the challenging issues which can arise as a result of
safeguarding work.

prevent, identify and respond to child maltreatment, they may not

an accessible text that outlines and explores professional roles
andresponsibilities in the context of inter-agency working.

working in this field.. . Dr Cheryll Adams, Acting Lead
