Description
Effective pain prevention and pain management are central to good nursing care. Whilst this has been acknowledged in adult nursing, children's pain has been, until recently, largely ignored. "Child and Infant Pain" provides a comprehensive and reader-friendly discussion of the issues related to children's pain. It aims to answer both the everyday and less common questions that nurses ask when caring for children, as well as providing theory and research relevant to the development of nursing practice. This book should be of interest to practising and student paediatric nurses (diploma and degree level).
