About this book

The second edition of Maternity and Neonatal Care begins with an additional chapter on pre-conceptual care, and also now includes a chapter on bereavement, with an appropriate care study. There is expansion to both the explanation of methods of palpetia, and infertility and family planning. Additional up-to-date references are included throughout. This new edition provides the material on maternity and neonatal care that nursing students need, and would be helpful to those undertaking preparation for further health visiting education.
