COVID 19
Due to COVID 19, the Children’s Health service will complete a risk assessment prior to booking an appointment with you. This precaution is needed to help reduce the spread of infection and to help keep everyone safe. We are working hard to make sure we provide the best quality service we can.
The outcome of the risk assessment will determine the type of contact you will receive.
The delivery of contact will either be;
- face to face (home, or community settings) and we ask that you wear a face covering.
- video call
- telephone call.
Our journey from birth to 25 years old provides you with trusted, age-related information.
