Synopsis

Sized for the on-the-go professional to carry in a pocket or a brief-case, "Child Abuse Quick Reference" is a comprehensive field guide for identifying child abuse and documenting an investigation. Lists describe the indicators of the widest range of possible abuses, from common to unusual manifestations. Also described are conditions that can be mistaken for abuse, from accidental and genetic to religious and cultural causes, to help you avoid reporting mistakes. Written by acknowledged experts in paediatrics, radiology, emergency medicine, dentistry, ophthalmology, psychology, art therapy, law and law enforcement, teaching, and social work, this practical guidebook takes you through each step involved in an intervention. You'll be given explicit instructions for performing thorough examinations, assessing lab and radiologic studies, doing effective interviews, and turning what you've seen into competent reports that will stand up under courtroom scrutiny. A detailed table of contents, an extensive index, and eye-catching colour-coded chapters make accessing the book's tremendous quantity of information easy. Every topic in "Child Abuse Quick Reference" is designed to equip you to effectively handle the complexities of today's child abuse cases.
