Health Visiting South Gloucestershire

The health visiting service in South Gloucestershire  is made up of health visitors and nursery nurses who work in the community with children and families from the antenatal period until they go to school. The service offers support for parents of all children (from pregnancy to age five), whatever their circumstances.
 

Health Visitors

Health Visitors are qualified nurses or midwives with a specialist qualification in public health for children, young people and families. They work alongside families offering support and information around parenthood and early parenting. Their training in public health enables them to provide evidence based support and information on a wide range of topics that can affect the health and wellbeing of families.

Community Nursery Nurses

Community nursery nurses also work alongside families using their knowledge of child development to help support parents to understand their child’s behavior, build a loving relationship with their child and enjoy their parenting journey.
