{"product_id":"family-centred-perinatal-care-improving-pregnancy-birth-and-postpartum-care-9781316627952","title":"Family-Centred Perinatal Care: Improving Pregnancy, Birth and Postpartum Care","description":"Since childbirth became a medicalized - and usually hospitalized - event a century ago, women's and families' psychosocial needs have been relegated to a somewhat peripheral role within the clinically focussed hierarchy of medical care. This text reinstates psychosocial issues as a primary focus of care, together with clinical excellence. Family-centred care is a familiar phrase in today's maternity services, with professional guidelines and hospital policies including the term in their care protocols; however, few definitions, and no specific standards, for family-centred care exist. While all caregivers and care services are likely to define their care as sensitive to women's needs, and family-centred, the actual implementation of a family-centred approach - despite it being a current fashion in care - is still inadequate. This book clearly defines family-centred perinatal care, and outlines how truly family-centred care can, and should, be implemented, and how, and where, this has been done.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Beverley Chalmers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Cambridge University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/03\/2017\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 236\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.78lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.22w x 0.80d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781316627952\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eChalmers, Beverley:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Beverley Chalmers DSc (Med), PhD, is a perinatal health consultant in Kingston, Ontario.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cambridge University Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44187127808115,"sku":"9.78132E+12","price":136.32,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/files\/img_e04c05d7-dd5d-4c8b-99df-f0b46027f582.jpg?v=1767279320","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/family-centred-perinatal-care-improving-pregnancy-birth-and-postpartum-care-9781316627952","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
