Pediatric Nursing
Pediatrics (also spelled paediatrics) is the branch of medicine that deals with the medical care of infants, children,
and adolescents. Child health nursing or pediatric nursing is an area of nursing and medical practice with a focus on
providing holistic care to infants, children and adolescents.
One of the major principles of pediatric nursing is the concept of family centred care.
Pediatric nurses function to support the family by providing nursing care that the family cannot perform, educating and
supporting them to maintain their normal caring activities and actively viewing the parents as partners in the care
process.
Pediatric nurse is a healthcare worker who assists medical doctors in their tasks, deals with emergencies, and provides
professional nursing care for sick babies and children in the children's ward of a medical institution. Pediatric
nursing can take you from intensive care of a newborn baby with breathing problems, to looking after a six-foot
tall adolescent whose leg has been broken in an accident.

The reason you're there as a children's nurse is because children are not just mini adults. Their bodies (and minds)
work in different ways. The onset of symptoms can be sudden and extreme. Because children are still growing, the impact
of the illness or injury on their development has to be taken into account. And because they are young, they may be more
scared or confused by what is happening to them. That's why they need pediatric nurses who understand their particular
needs. Medical Schools & Nursing Colleges
