Opportunity overview
The 0-19 Public Health Services are crucial in ensuring children and families get a good start in life. The services consist of the health visiting service and school nursing service. The health visiting service delivers the 5 public health mandated contacts that are to be completed with families before a child reaches age 2 and a half.

Both services also play key role in safeguarding processes. Both by identifying safeguarding issues and supporting the wider system with health input into cases.
