Book Description

The STUDY GUIDE TO ACCOMPANY MATERNAL AND CHILD HEALTH NURSING complements the text that nursing students have relied on for more than three decades. It reflects changes to the text, such as changes in practice, an increased focus on the nursing process, health promotion, family-centered care, cultural diversity and care in the home and community settings. Additionally, it includes more clinical situations and critical thinking questions. * Each exercise begins with an introductory statement and clinical tie-in questions that relate to the students' assigned clinical setting or community. * Each chapter contains various types of study questions - multiple choice, fill-in-the-blank, and short answer. * Additional "probe questions" are provided at the end of many of the chapters. * Answers to the study guide questions for each chapter are found at the end of the study guide. More clinical situations with critical thinking questions are added to promote clinical decision making abilities. New 2-column design provides more streamlined, appealing format.
