Analysis of the characteristics of children who received universal health visitor reviews in 2018 to 2019 and 2019 to 2020. Characteristics include:

  • ethnicity
  • deprivation
  • looked-after children
  • disability
  • vulnerability
  • whether children have moved within and between areas
  • where children have a preferred language other than English

The analysis gives further detail to that available from the health visitor metrics and outcomes for children in the early years which are produced routinely by Public Health England (PHE) based on data from the interim national reporting system for children’s public health 0 to 5 years. Data from the interim national reporting system is available in the early years section of the child and maternal health profiles in PHE’s Fingertips tool.
