Easy-to-follow step-by-step advice, nurse- and parent-tested methods and clear illustrations will show you how to: assess a situation and stay calm, treat an injury in a child-friendly way, recognise warning signs that show your child has a serious illness, know when to get help, and make your home child-safe.

The information in this book is a trusted compilation of best practices from Australia's peak clinical bodies-including the Australian Resuscitation Council, ASICA, Australian Venom Research Unit -and valuable case studies from Australian parents.
