@yr2melthamce P is using play-doh to learn about fractions at home. She was able to tell us about halves and quarters. Well done P 🌟👏🏻🙂

Excellent news item by @Damian_Roland on the surge in measles cases and the importance of vaccinations.
Health visitors have an important role to play to support ⬆️in MMR uptake 👇

[Crohn's & Colitis UK @CrohnsColitisUK]

Frustrating to see this @educationgovuk. School attendance matters, but so does supporting children with chronic conditions. Not every tummy ache is mild. It could be something serious like Crohn's or Colitis. Many kids want to be in school, learning with their friends but can't.

[Action on Postpartum Psychosis @ActionOnPP]

New mum seems strange? Seek help.

It could be postpartum psychosis (PP), a treatable medical emergency.

Help make an urgent appointment with their doctor, midwife, health visitor or call 111. If you think there is imminent danger, call 999. With help they will recover.

Mental Health Awareness Week is from 15-21 May and the theme is anxiety. It really helps to talk when you’re feeling anxious and this is just as important for dads. Don’t bottle things up – talk earlier to get support. Speak to other dads, your GP or Health Visitor.

Today is International Nurses Day.
It takes a special person to be a nurse.
Thank you to all of them for doing what they do.

So here’s a thread 🧵 on some of the support HV’s provide on a daily bases. We do not just weigh babies, however that is an overlooked action. When HV’s are “just weighing baby” they are assessing a multitude of variables. Relationships, feelings, feeding…

@yr4melthamce @yr1melthamce C & P had fun in the snow today ❄️🛷🥶🌨️☃️

Listen to the health visitors!
They know what they’re talking about interacting with families on the ground day to day. Start addressing this grim reality by funding health visiting better.
