PREFACE

Maternal- newborn nursing are expanding areas of nursing as a result of the broadening scope of practice within the nursing profession and the recognized need for better preventive and restorative care in these areas. The care of the childbearing and

childrearing family is a major focus of nursing practice. To have healthy children, it is

important to promote the health of the childbearing woman, her family from the time before the children is born to the time until they reach childhood. Prenatal care and guidance are essential to the health of the woman, fetus, and of the familys emotional preparation for childbearing. As you scan this book, you can see the different interviews and assessment to the clients done by the author and the appropriate

interventions encountered

to

any

existing

problems and

during

childbearing

childbirth as well. Also, the author discussed the nursing process, the systemic changes that normally occur during pregnancy, the

immediate care given to the newborn, the menstrual cycle, and the overview of both the female and male reproductive systems. This maternal and child book views

maternal and child health care not as two separate disciplines but as a continuum of knowledge.
