Providing an in-depth look at the issues surrounding the palliative care of children and their families, this innovative text considers children with both malignant and non-malignant conditions, and the specialist care required.

By addressing the complexities of providing palliative care to children, it aims to assist all those who work in this field to enhance their practice. Special features include:

? broad research evidence, from national and international sources, on
which to base practice
? absorbing activities to support learning and help build knowledge in
a meaningful way
? interprofessional perspectives from the whole palliative care team

The contributors to the book are drawn from both education and practice across a range of disciplines. The result is a genuinely engaging, interdisciplinary text that is essential reading for students and professionals aiming to deliver quality palliative care in partnership with children and their families.
