Review
I think this book is a very good resource for student midwives, nurses and health care assistants working in the neonatal unit. The depth of writing is at an appropriate level and the text is easy to understand and uses appropriate reference material. The information boxes summarise the text effectively providing a quick reference point for students. I like the way each chapter commences with aims and outcomes and mapping where appropriate. --Fiona Hutchinson, Senior Lecturer, Northumbria University.

Product Description
Neonatal Care provides student midwives, student nurses, nursery nurses and senior health care assistants with a practical and theoretical guide to all aspects of basic neonatal care. All chapters are mapped where appropriate to the NHS Knowledge and Skills Framework (2004) and the NMC Standards of proficiency for pre-registration midwifery education (2004). The role of the health care assistant is increasing significantly, particularly in the postnatal care of mother and baby, and there is a requirement for them to develop knowledge and skills to support their developing role. This book will enable HCAs to gain an understanding of basic neonatal care, including the identification of issues that may need to be referred to someone with more advanced skills. The chapters provide a gradual progression through the types of neonatal services available, the care the neonate may require and why, and the midwife or nurse s role in facilitating neonatal care within the family. There is also consideration of cultural and diversity issues, communication, and legal and professional matters pertinent to caring for the neonate. All chapters have specific learning outcomes and self assessment exercises to enable readers to assess and track their own progress. Contents: Introduction Chapter 1 Introduction to the Neonate and Services Available to the Neonate Chapter 2- Maternal and Family Health and impact on Fetus and Neonate Chapter 3 Transition to Extra-uterine Life Chapter 4 Neonatal Screening Chapter 5 Principles of Feeding Chapter 6 - Assessment of on-going well being Chapter 7 Communication Chapter 8 - Neonatal Disorders Chapter 9 - Cultural Issues Chapter 10 - Professional and Legal Requirements References Glossary Index
