Essentials of Nursing Children and Young People by Jayne Price

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.

Essentials of Nursing Children and Young People Reviews

Fantastic evidence-base on the mechanisms of child biology, physiology, assessing children, and all the different childhood illness. They talk about community care, law, policy, and there's also a section about caring for children with complex or high-needs, or critically ill children.

-- Grace Barry - Registered Nurse and Blogger
The book features multiple contributors from a variety of clinical, academic and leadership roles as well as viewpoints on many aspects of care from students, parents and most importantly, children. The book signposts the student to consider critical aspects of practice throughout such as 'safeguarding stop points', 'what's the evidence?' boxes and links to critical thinking or reflection.

The book is aimed at second and third year children's nursing students and keeps this audience firmly in focus with reference to a review panel of students. It would also be a good introductory resource for any qualified nurse newly caring for children and young people. -- Alison Taylor, Senior lecturer in Child Health Nursing, University of Brighton
