23. CONCLUSION
• Child health nursing differs fundamentally
from adult care because it requires
understanding the child's developmental
stage.
• Key differences include the need for age-
appropriate communication and assessment
techniques, a focus on growth and
development, and the inclusion of parents and
caregivers in the health plan.
