Verbatim
“Yet the profession is in crisis. With 45% fewer health visitors than in 2015, preventive support for families has been eroded over years of underinvestment.”
“Health visitors are described by Unicef UK as the 'backbone of the early years … the safety net around all families'. A long-established and trusted profession, health visitors are specialist public health nurses who work with families to improve health and reduce inequalities.”
