Nurses working with childbearing families today face a variety of new challenges, including shortened lengths of stay, the trend toward greater use of community-based and home care, and downsizing and mergers of health care systems.

Maternal-Newborn Nursing Care: The Nurse, the Family, and the Community (formerly Essentials of Maternal-Newborn Nursing) continues to emphasize the central role played by nurses working with todays childbearing families. *NEW- Chapter 29, "Home Care of the Postpartal Family," discusses assessment, teaching, and physical care of the postpartal woman, newborn, and family in the home. *NEW- Community-in-Focus boxes describe innovative community-based nursing programs in operation around the country. *NEW- Community-based nursing care and home care are described in key sections of the text to help students understand how therapeutic care of maternal-newborn conditions is given in the community. *NEW- Fifteen Critical Pathways have been added to address nursing care for women with complications and high risk newborns.
