Watson, G (ed)

Safeguarding and protecting children, young people & families : a guide for nurses and midwives - Los Angeles SAGE 2014

Safeguarding and protecting the welfare of children is a statutory duty for all nurses and midwives. This book helps equip student nurses and midwives with the confidence, knowledge and skills needed for working with families to support and protect children. It covers the full spectrum of safeguarding work, from professional issues such as boundaries and confidentiality through to attachment and communication. It features a clear explanation of the policy and key theories informing safeguarding work, a consideration of the common challenges you are likely to face, such as vulnerability in pregnancy, domestic violence and parenting capacity, and reflective activities and case histories which help you to develop and enhance your own practice.
