Karin Nordin – författare

Sjuksköterskan som arbetar inom barnsjukvård möter barn i olika åldrar, allt från nyfödda till 18-åriga ungdomar. Omvårdnaden måste anpassas för barn med olika ohälsotillstånd utifrån deras behov, förutsättningar och utvecklingsnivå. I mötet med barnet och familjen får sjuksköterskan också ta del av barnets tankar, vilket ofta är en glädje, men det kan också vara en utmaning eftersom barnet och dess familj befinner sig i en sårbar situation. När barn drabbas av ohälsa, olycksfall eller svår sjukdom påverkas hela familjen och ofta är det dessutom barnets första kontakt med hälso- och sjukvården. Hur detta möte upplevs kan påverka barnets och familjens framtida kontakter med hälso- och sjukvård.För att kunna ge god och säker vård krävs mångfacetterade kunskaper. Därför får läsaren ta del av sjuksköterskors, läkares, farmaceuters och psykologers kunskaper och erfarenheter om olika sjukdomar och tillstånd hos barn som är i behov av vård. Boken har ett barn- och familjecentrerat fokus och tar sin utgångspunkt i ett tydligt omvårdnadsperspektiv.Målgruppen är i första hand studenter i specialistsjuksköterskeprogram på avancerad nivå, men även närliggande yrkesgrupper som arbetar med barn och unga inom vård och omsorg kan med fördel läsa boken.

Reader review⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Teenage girls can do some pretty awful things… Lexie and Amber used to share everything, especially their dream of getting out of their small-town home. Born only ten months apart, they once thought they couldn’t be closer. THEY WERE WRONG. Fifteen years ago, Amber was brutally murdered in the woods, and Lexie’s high-school boyfriend was sentenced to death for her killing. Lexie is still stuck in the town she dreamed she’d leave, and everyone thinks she knew more about the night of the killing than she told. PROBLEM IS, THEY’RE RIGHT.

AND TIME IS RUNNING OUT… Readers are LOVING Sweet Little Lies‘Gripped me from page one’‘Kept me on the edge of my seat’‘I would recommend to anyone’‘A must read’‘Keeps up the suspense right up until the very end’
