The International Children’s Palliative Care Network (ICPCN) is delighted to announce the release of A Really Practical Handbook of Children’s Palliative Care for Doctors and Nurses Anywhere in the World by Dr. Justin Amery.
The book is structured around common questions that arise in often-difficult palliative care situations. Each chapter deals with one question, and starts by reminding the reader of what they already know before going on to fill in some common gaps. Contributors to the book include experts in children’s palliative care from around the world and it is hoped that this book will give the reader everything they need to manage real life cases in real life settings, with confidence, wherever they are in the world.
Download the book in PDF format from the ICPCN website or as an ePub file or purchase as a hard copy from Lulu.com
