Nursing Approach to the Evaluation of Child Maltreatment
By: Giardino, Eileen R. (ed.); Giardino, Angelo P. (ed.)
Published by: G.W. Medical Publishing
Nurses and nurse practitioners are critical members of child abuse treatment teams. Nursing Approach to the Evaluation of Child Maltreatment provides the information nurses need to identify and accurately interpret the signs of maltreatment and then to report it correctly. Presented in 17 chapters comprising three major sections—Overview, Healthcare Evaluation, and Related Issues—the areas of physical abuse, sexual abuse, and neglect are extensively addressed. Each chapter is structured to give a general overview of the topic area, followed by a detailed treatment plan relevant to the specific types of abuse. In addition, each chapter includes easy-to-use checklists, examination hints, and flow charts for ready access to important information. Edited by a nurse and a pediatrician, with chapter contributions by experts in the various fields of child maltreatment, this handy reference is a must-have for every nurse and nurse practitioner who may be confronted with possible child abuse. It clearly illustrates how to identify abuse and details the most common types of child abuse, as well as uncommon but possible causes. The steps to be taken when interviewing the child and the details to be addressed in performing a physical examination in a suspected abusive situation are also provided. Nursing Approach to the Evaluation of Child Maltreatment also explores the important issues of domestic violence, the risk of the Internet, Munchausen syndrome by proxy, and legal issues. This book is especially valuable for nurse practitioners, school nurses, pediatric nurses, APNs, FNPs, social service and safety personnel, state and federal agents, and allied health/emergency room technicians.

A Practitioners' Tool for Child Protection and the Assessment of Parents
By: Fowler, Jeff
Published by: Jessica Kingsley Publishers
A practical tool for the assessment of children and their families, this guide enables professionals to make informed decisions about child protection issues. Firmly rooted in current practice, it draws on the expertise of a practising consultant and experienced qualified social worker Jeff Fowler, whose work has already formed the basis of guidance reports for child protection agencies and court proceedings. Providing detailed checklists for collecting and interpreting information vital to a best practice assessment, it also includes practical sections that focus on assessing attachment issues, childhood experiences, alcohol and drug abuse, and parenting skills and abilities. It presents a central case study leading to an assessment report which can be used for case conferences, as a core assessment in care proceedings, or for statements in public and private law matters. This is a helpful tool for anyone undertaking assessments but also for others who may be involved in aspects of child protection work such as social workers, health professionals, teachers, and legal and criminal justice professionals.
