PROVIDENCE – A textbook written and edited by health care providers at Women & Infants Hospital won a 2012 Book of the Year Award from the American Journal of Nursing, hospital officials announced on Feb. 25.
The book, “Obstetric Triage and Emergency Care Protocols,” published by the Springer Publishing Company, came in second in the Maternal Child Health section.
The editors were Diane J. Angelini of the hospital’s Nurse Midwifery Section of the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, and Dr. Donna LaFontaine, former medical director of the hospital’s Triage Department.
“This book goes beyond the basics of obstetric care, providing an excellent reference for anyone who needs to implement or improve obstetric triage in the hospital setting,” said Jessica Deeb, one of the judges. “It seems that nothing is excluded. This is a must-read for any hospital with an obstetric triage.”
Chapters in the book by Women & Infants staff include:
