Maternity and Pediatric Nursing, Fourth Edition by Susan Scott Ricci and Susan Carman was awarded Second Place in the 2021 AJN Book of the Year Awards in Maternal-Child/Prenatal Nursing/Childbirth. Published by Lippincott Williams & Wilkins, this trusted text establishes the knowledge base and critical thinking skills students need to ensure safe, effective maternity and pediatric nursing care.
The latest edition has been designed with curriculum efficiency in mind, helping instructors maximize class time while guiding women and children toward higher levels of wellness throughout the life cycle. A nursing process approach provides relevant content in a concise, straightforward manner, streamlining coverage of a broad scope of maternity topics while clearly distinguishing the differences between the care of adults and children.
The text emphasizes commonly encountered clinical challenges in maternity and pediatric care, building students' abilities to anticipate, identify, and address problems and provide timely, evidence-based interventions that reduce long-term complications. Core topics include antepartum, intrapartum, and postpartum care, newborn assessment, growth and development, pediatric illness management, and family-centered care.
This text is essential for nursing students preparing for the NCLEX-RN and the maternal-child health content tested on licensure examinations, as well as for instructors teaching maternity and pediatric nursing courses.
