Psychosocial Care of Children in Hospitals
By L. Gaynard, et al (1998).

An ACLP Best Seller! A fundamentally-important resource for "making the case" for child life, Psychosocial Care of Children in Hospitals belongs in every child life specialist's professional library.

The integration of theory and practice, the clinical detail, and the inclusion of specific examples are designed to help all readers understand and learn from the ACCH Child Life Research Project's successful approach to psychosocial care of hospitalized children and their families.
