Child Health Nursing: Partnering with Children & Families, 3rd Edition, is a textbook developed for courses in pediatric nursing. The text focuses on partnering with families to tailor care plans for infants, children, and adolescents across hospital and community environments.

Coverage addresses developmental stages, pediatric and newborn assessment, and health promotion from infancy through adolescence. The volume also examines nursing care for acute and chronic health conditions, life-threatening illness, and end-of-life care and bereavement.

To guide clinical reasoning, the 2018 edition incorporates recommendations from NANDA International diagnoses, Nursing Intervention Classifications, Nursing Outcomes Classifications, and Healthy People 2020.
