Essentials of Maternity, Newborn, and Women’s Health Nursing offers a comprehensive and practical approach to understanding the maternal needs of women and their newborn infants.
Tailored specifically for nursing students, the textbook emphasizes the nursing process, guiding learners from theoretical concepts to practical application. The author builds on previously mastered knowledge, ensuring that students are well-prepared to pass the NCLEX® and safely practice maternity nursing.
Each chapter delves into various aspects of a woman's health throughout her life cycle, addressing risk factors, lifestyle choices, and appropriate interventions. Essential nursing education topics are also covered, helping students understand how to preserve and enhance the health of women and their newborns within the broader context of women's health. This holistic approach ensures that students gain a thorough understanding of the interconnected elements of women’s healthcare.
To bridge the gap between theory and practice, the textbook includes real-life scenarios that present relevant information on maternity, newborn, and women's health. These scenarios are designed to perfect students' caregiving skills by simulating clinical experiences, accompanied by questions that encourage critical evaluation and decision-making.
Additionally, real-life case studies provide further opportunities for practical application and critical thinking. The sixth edition also provides features such as Unfolding Patient Stories, case studies, step-by-step nursing procedures, maternity skill-based videos, and Practice and Learn case studies, all aimed at enhancing students' learning experiences and proficiency in maternity nursing.
