Featuring the most accurate, current, and clinically relevant information available, Perry’s Maternal Child Nursing Care in Canada combines essential maternity and pediatric nursing information in one text. Comprehensive coverage includes promotion of wellness and the care for persons experiencing common health concerns throughout the lifespan, care in childbearing, as well as the health care of children and child development in the context of the family. Health concerns, including physiological dysfunctions and special needs and illnesses, are also featured.
