Provide quality nursing care through each stage of child
development! Wong's Nursing Care of Infants and Children, 12th
Edition uses an easy-to-follow, family-centered approach to
describe the care of children at each age and stage of development.
The book begins with a discussion of the influences on and
assessment of child health, then provides chapters on child health
promotion and health problems - all organized by age groups and
body systems. Up-to-date, evidence-based information helps you
develop critical thinking skills along with the sensitivity needed
to become a compassionate, caring pediatric nurse. Written by a
team of experts led by Marilyn J. Hockenberry, Wong's continues to
be the leading text in pediatric nursing. Focus on family-centered
care emphasizes the role and influence of the family in child
health and illness with a separate chapter and Family-Centered Care
boxes. Full-color drawings and photographs reflect the latest in
nursing care. Nursing Care Guidelines boxes offer clear,
step-by-step instructions for interventions in a variety of
situations and conditions, and Nursing Care Plan boxes included
