Author Description

Lippincott's Pediatric Nursing Video Series consists of three documentary-style videos demonstrating nursing care of children and families. Each video covers five age groups--infant, toddler, pre-school, school age, and adolescent--and includes nurse, patient, and family interviews. Volume 1, Growth and Development, shows normal physical, psychosocial, and cognitive development from infancy through adolescence. Volume 2, Communicating with Children and Families, provides communication techniques specific to each age group. Volume 3, Care of the Hospitalized Child, focuses on involving family caregivers, promoting growth and development, safety, pain management, and medication in the hospital setting.
