About the Book

This basic maternity textbook emphasizes normal childbearing and women's health. It focuses on caring and nursing competencies, with the content being supported by nursing research. Using a nursing process framework, this text addresses new and evolving technologies as well as changes in society, all preparing practitioners to function in a wide variety of settings. Prevention, maintenance of health, self-care, family processes, sensitivity to culture and ethnicity, and awareness of legal and ethical issues are central concepts throughout the text. In this updated edition, community aspects of care are introduced and then integrated throughout to emphasize that care can take place wherever the woman and her family may be. There are also two new chapters on pregnancy at risk, one of pre-existing conditons and the other on gestational conditions, focusing on the care and treatment of the pregnant woman with conditions she had prior to becoming pregnant and with conditions she acquired during pregnancy.
