Care of Sick Children: A Basic Guide (Ausmed Audiobooks)

The AudioBook version of Care of Sick Children: A Basic Guide provides an abridged 2 hour version of the text on two audio CDs - an immensely practical way to speed the learning process. Readers can listen to the CDs while driving their cars to work, or at other times in their busy lives - even copying them to their personal digital audio players if they wish.

Also included in each package is a copy of the book: for parents, teachers, childcare workers, and others who are responsible for the care of children, and written in a clear, non-technical style, it provides essential information on the common illnesses and injuries of childhood.

Every adult who has responsibility for the care of children could benefit from having this audiobook/book package on hand. They will find it helpful in providing fundamental advice for carers on a wide range of childhood health problems.
