It is designed to serve CFR team members, potential team members, and interested nonmembers as the only text they will need on child death review. The title details common types of child fatalities for professionals to use as a reference, including sections devoted to review procedures, the roles of each team member, and full-color photographs of various causes of child death and manners of death. Case studies illustrate abusive and accidental forms of death, including neglect, Sudden Infant Death Syndrome (SIDS), suicide, burning, drowning, genetic diseases, natural causes, and shaken baby syndrome. This text is a vital tool for all members of a child fatality review team, and can serve as a guide for anyone trying to form a team.
