Document Summary
Week 5 readings: nursing care for families living with pediatric chronic. Reading #1: beacham, b. l. , & deatrick, j, a. (2015). Children with chronic conditions: perspectives on condition management. Children with chronic health conditions (chcs) learn how to manage their conditions through everyday life experiences with their families, peers, health providers, and others in their communities. The purpose of this qualitative descriptive study was to systematically describe the understandings of condition management from the perspectives of school-aged children (8 13 years) with a variety of chc. School-aged children are transitioning from concrete ways of thinking to cognitive thought processes that are more complex and intellectual. The lives of children with chc are filled with daily reminders and potential learning experiences related to their condition. School aged children with chcs begin to learn how to navigate life and their conditions outside the home.
