Dealing with children who have or may be exposed to infectious diseases takes extra special care. Immature body systems cannot handle exposure to disease in the same way as adult systems. Action must be taken swiftly but carefully and all those involved with the sick child must know what they are doing. The particular audience for this book is not nurses who work all the time with children (though they will find it a quick and easy reference). This book is for nurses who work onlyi occasionally with children, nurses who need easy access to information about infectious diseases as they affect children, e.g. incubation times, isolation methods and notifications requirements. An important difference about this book is that it views nurses and the child's family as members of the same team. Each chapter of the book includes a section on Education for Carers, being those at home who are looking after a child with an infectious disease. The information for nurses to pass on to families is direct and helpful; in fact the book itself can be recommended to families with young children as a handy reference.
In the author's own words, 'this book is up to date and applicable in busy clinical areas'. It is highly recommended for all nurses working in clinical situations.
