Health Visiting and School Nursing Services consultation

Overview

Northumberland County Council and Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust are planning to enter into a partnership arrangement, aiming to link health visiting and school nursing services more closely with other services which support children and young people and their families in Northumberland.

The two organisations are asking for views about what opportunities there are for closer joint working, and whether the proposed partnership is the best way to realise those opportunities.
