Springer Publishing Company | 2006 | ISBN 082618815X | 352 pages When a dream becomes a vision and that vision provides guiding principles and actions for health professionals to improve health and well-being of children, a substantial contribution to the discipline occurs. This book, written by national experts in their respective areas, and the culmination of years of careful deliberation and dialogue between leaders in professional organizations in nursing, is an excellent resource for pediatric nurses in practice, as well as those in educational programs. The systematic approach to assessment, planning, and evaluation and the use of a case study in each chapter to illustrate the guiding principles is a particular strength. This book, which raises the bar on the type of health care services parents should expect and children everywhere deserve, should be required reading by all nurses who touch the lives of children.
