Pediatric Nursing Care Plans

Designed for the paediatric units in hospitals or home settings, this resource includes the most common acute and chronic problems and illnesses associated with children - from one month of age to pre-adolescence. The various conditions discussed are organized by body systems. Coverage includes an overview of the system, general physiological changes in structure and function associated with growth and development, and essential diagnoses and care plans (all of which can be easily adapted to specific patients).
