The Royal Borough of Greenwich is redesigning its Health Visiting and School Nursing provision through commissioning a new integrated 0-19 service.

The 0-19 Integrated Public Health Service will provide leadership, co-ordination and delivery of the Healthy Child Programme in Royal Greenwich.

As an essential part of the Children’s Services ‘system’, it will make a major contribution to our Children and Young People’s Plan ambitions by improving health and well-being outcomes for children and young people, identifying additional needs early, building resilience and reducing health inequalities by providing effective universal and targeted interventions for children and their parents.
