Abstract "This comprehensive maternity book is now even better! Maternity and Women's Health Care, 13th Edition provides evidence-based coverage of everything you need to know about caring for women of childbearing age. In addition to emphasizing childbearing concerns like newborn care, it also addresses wellness promotion and management of women's health problems. In describing the continuum of care, it integrates the importance of understanding family, culture, and community-based care. New guidelines are incorporated with updated content throughout, focusing on prioritization of care and interprofessional care." -- Provided by publisher.
