Aim of the Improvement WorkTo maximise global development and wellbeing outcomes for children at 27-30 months of age by earlier detection and prevention of areas of concern.

Aim95% of children aged 12 -15 months of the test population designated by the Health Visitor caseload in the Coatbridge locality will have a review completed by 31 March 2015 and provided with interventions around areas of concern and anticipatory guidance to prevent areas of concern developing at a later stage.

How we will change to improve to reach this Improvement Goal

Health Visitors Voice

Health visitors leading the way!

Have been able to rapidly apply learning from tests of change

Developed their own parent feedback form and anticipatory guidance checklist based on their learning while carrying out the test.

Feedback from Parents

Q1 I have found this assessment useful?

Q2 I found the information given during the assessment useful?

Q3 I would recommend this contact with a health visitor be available to other parents?

21 Parental Review Questionnaires received as of 07/10/14.

All have answered Yes so far to these questions.

We are learning that parents value the strengthening relationship with health visitor and reassurance given, not just the assessment itself.

+Comments by Parents

After my first baby didn’t have any further

assessment then just before school found out

she needed speech therapy.

I think early assessment like this is excellent for picking up any issues.

Very informative, particularly having older

child with autism.

Good to know my child is doing

well.

Brilliant informatio

n, very helpful

Very useful,

this should be offered to everyone

I was glad to have

assessment to ease

any concerns

Weekend appointme

nt was suitable

Happy to hear my child is doing well

This was very useful, good to

be given guidance.

Found this to be very useful and beneficial. I

am now aware of support that I am able

to get

Very reassuring

An excellent service and very reassuring as a parent

to understand where my child should be

developmentally etc. Really pleased to have been

part of this programme.

It provides the opportunity to have reassurance on my

daughters developmental stages. Many thanks.

I found the assessment

helpful, to know what stage my child was at for

her age.

+Next Steps
