Opis

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. While this illustrated text is an ideal tool for anyone who works on or with a child fatality review team, it is also a reference asset to any medical library. In the arena of education, Child Fatality Review is a valuable teaching tool in university social-work classes or law enforcement teaching facilities.
