Later chapters address non-normal situations such as premature birth.
Each of the chapters starts with a brief overview that could be useful to anyone with limited knowledge of the subject. The rest of each chapter is quite specific on the subject covering how to assess the neonate or family situation, and then how to develop a plan and implement it for the well-being of the neonate and to assist the neonate's family with caring for the child. Descriptions are clear but rely on nursing knowledge. The need to assess the emotional state of the parents is also addressed. There are selected references for further reading at the end of each chapter.
