Child and Youth Health Practice Manual for Child Health Nurses and Indigenous Child Health Workers

This manual covers practice issues and guidelines for child, youth and family health practice. It is specifically designed for Child and Youth Health Nurses and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Child and Youth Health Workers who are working with families, children and young people (0-18 years) within Queensland Health. The manual will be a very valuable clinical practice tool and resource for new practitioners and will also provide a detailed reference tool for experienced Child Health Nurses.
