Description - Child and Adolescent Mental Health Nursing by Tim McDougall
All nurses share a responsibility to promote the mental health and
mental wellbeing of children and young people in the context of
recent developments including the National Service Framework for
Children, Young People and Maternity Services.
Child and Adolescent Mental Health Nursing equips nurses
with the essential skills and competencies needed when working with
this important group of people. It explores best practice in a
variety of settings and addresses issues such as eating disorders,
self-harm, ADHD, learning disabilities, forensic mental health
issues and misuse of drugs and alcohol in children and young
people, as well as child protection, clinical governance and legal
requirements.
Child and Adolescent Mental Health Nursing enables nurses
working in CAMHS to provide a high quality, evidence-based service
to all children and young people with mental health problems and
disorders, ensuring effective assessment, treatment and support,
for them and their families. It is essential reading for all nurses
working with children and young people, particularly those working
in specialist child and adolescent mental health settings.
