Product Description

Review

“Overall, this is a book I will consult when I need authoritative advice on specific diagnoses and definitions of disorders.  It is also one I will use when writing an assignment, because I know I can trust the quality of writing and referencing.”  ( Nursing Children and Young People , 1 September 2012)  

Product Description

As an increasing number of children and adolescents with psychiatric symptoms go unrecognized in our current health care system, the ability to identify and treat these issues in multiple health care settings has become vitally important. With access to primary care providers increasing and a shortage of child psychiatric providers, collaboration between psychiatric, pediatric and family advanced practice nurses is essential to improving care for this vulnerable population. Child and Adolescent Behavioral Health: A Resource for Advanced Practice Psychiatric and Primary Care Practitioners in Nursing provides a practical reference to aid in this endeavor.

Aimed at advanced practice nurses and graduate students in nursing, this book is divided into 4 sections addressing assessment, treatment, special populations, and special issues. Within these sections, each chapter includes state-of-the-art, evidence-based information about the most common issues faced by psychiatric and primary care practitioners alike. Chapters focused on disorders review clinical manifestation, etiology, nursing interventions, integration with primary care, and implications for practice, research, and education. Chapters focused on issues describe the linkages between the behavioral/psychiatric profile of the child and associated risk and management strategies.

Written/reviewed by over 70 nurse experts, Child and Adolescent Behavioral Health: A Resource for Advanced Practice Psychiatric and Primary Care Practitioners in Nursing is a must-have reference for all practitioners caring for children and adolescents.

I am in an on-line Peds/adolescent Psych CNS program. I happened to see this book either here or when searching for references. Anyway, it has great info, all in one place. The section on drugs includes a chart with many of the common meds given as well as what type of monitoring (Ht, Wt, BMI, Labs, EKG) is needed and how often. I haven't read through the whole book (it is big) but what I have looked at has been great. I am so happy that I stumbled across this book. I would highly recommend it.
