Details

Annual official statistics in development on health visitor service delivery. Information is presented at local authority of residence, regional and England level.

The latest annual data covers the period 1 April 2022 to 31 March 2023. Data from previous years was published by OHID and Public Health England.

The metrics cover health reviews for pregnant women, children and their families at several stages which are:

  • antenatal contact
  • new birth visit
  • 6 to 8 week review
  • 12 month review
  • 2 to 2 and a half year review

The data was collected through an interim reporting system set up to collect health visiting activity data at a local authority resident level. Data was submitted by local authorities on a voluntary basis.

Local authority commissioners and health professionals can use these resources to track how many pregnant women, children and families in their local area have received health promoting reviews at particular points during pregnancy and childhood.
