Description
Focusing on nursing care rather than disease processes, this excellent research-based text looks at issues such as discharge planning,
adolescents and cancer, and coping strategies for family and staff. It concentrates on the psychological and social aspects of care and
reflects the radical changes that have occurred in recent years in this field.
Audience
Post graduate nurses-in community and hospital settings-working with children with cancer or studying professional and academic specialist
courses eg ENB240 (Paediatric Oncology). Undergraduate RSCNs. Health Visitors. School nurses
