Product Description Engaging and easy to read, this concise textbook offers just the right level of maternity and pediatric nursing coverage. It provides a solid foundation in normal body function, then builds on that knowledge to help you understand how to modify nursing care when the unexpected arises. Clear writing and interactive learning tools (including video and animation) reinforce key concepts and encourage you to think critically and apply what you've learned. Critical to Remember boxes highlight "need to know" information for quick and easy access. Critical Thinking Exercises challenge you to apply critical thinking and problem-solving skills to realistic clinical scenarios. Illustrated Procedure boxes provide clear, step-by-step instructions for performing key clinical nursing tasks. Nursing Care Plans in every clinical chapter help you learn to use the nursing process to develop individualized care for maternity and pediatric patients. Communications Cues provide practical verbal and nonverbal tips for communicating effectively with patients and families. Want to Know boxes offer helpful patient teaching guidelines. Photo Stories use engaging pictures to demonstrate the types of care nurses provide in a variety of clinical settings. Pathophysiology boxes in pediatric chapters provide illustrated overviews of common disorders. Companion CD-ROM contains video clips, 3-D animations, illustrated skills, case studies with critical thinking questions, NCLEXÂ® examination-style review questions, and an audio glossary complete with Spanish pronunciations. Evolve Student Resources Website offers up-to-date web links, video clips, resources for health care providers, review questions, and a variety of interactive exercises. Integrated electronic features match icons in the text, so you can use print and electronic resources more effectively together. Using Research to Improve Practice boxes help you determine proper care to reinforce best practice. Spanish translations are included for phrases commonly encountered with maternity and pediatric patients. Improved design makes the text easier to read, and up-to-date photos ensure accuracy.
Reviews

Maternal child bundle pack This order came on time and in great condition. I would buy again from this seller.
Not pleased I never received this item and I purchased it a month ago. I emailed the seller a couple of times and did not receive a response, and I had already paid for the item and needed it for school. This whole experience was awful and I wouldn't recommend purchasing from anyone without checking all their feedback. Amazon did say that I would get a refund, but I have yet to receive it.
Maternal Child Nursing Text This text is not only hard to find information you need, some of the chapters are hard to follow and read. The illustrations are good but information can be hard to come by. And talk about typos! Someone needs to proof read this text before it goes to the printer the next time. Overall I think two stars is being very generous. I am sure there is a better text to pick from.
Great study guide This study guide makes up for everything that the text book lacks. I got the study guide in time for the 2nd exam and oh boy has it helped. I have recommended to all my fellow class mates to get this book.
okay textbook Mostly general information. I had a hard time finding some of the information that I needed. Honestly, I don't feel like I have gained a whole lot of studying out of this text. Some of the chapters were hard to understand.
