Details
These stories from health visitors and service users demonstrate the work and benefits of the transformed health visiting service. The service offers 4 levels of support depending on need, 5 universal reviews at key points in a child’s life and 6 high impact areas where health visitors make the biggest difference.
These examples are structured under the 6 high impact areas, which are:
- transition to parenthood
- maternal mental health
- breastfeeding
- healthy weight and nutrition
- managing minor illness and preventing accidents
- the 2 year review.
These are key development points in a child’s life.
