Law and Ethics in Children's Nursing is an important and practical guide on the legal
and ethical spects of child health care, that will enable nurses to understand the
legal and ethical principles that underpin everydaynursing practice, and help them
understand the legal and ethical implications of their actions. It explores the concept
of childhood and children's rights and the extent to which their rights are upheld
in a variety of settings and evaluates the relationship between law and ethics and
how they interact in resolving problems and dilemmas that commonly arise in practice.
With case studies, learning outcomes and scenarios throughout, Law and Ethics in Children's
Nursing places the care and treatment of children in a legal and ethical framework,
and explores the way in which legal and ethical aspects of children's nursing differs
from those of adults. It explores general principles such as autonomy and consent,
confidentiality and accountability and negligence. It then goes on to look at specialist
areas such as abortion, sterilisation, research, mental health, organ donation, child
protection and death. - Publisher
