@HenSloman @SAPHNAsharonOBE @SAPHNAteam@iHealthVisiting Never lose sight we are here for the child. If we start with their voice and their needs in everything we do we won’t go far wrong.
@CheryllMa@alrattenbury@iHealthVisiting@salhogg Devon have face to face clinic booked appointments offered to assess baby’s with growth concerns, video teleconferencing for those who don’t need face to face but need additional feeding support and a virtual group offer video to promote wellbeing universally.
Went for a lovely cycle today and saw multiple exposed breasts all on men who were cycling with no top on. Then noted a mum hidden away just off the path with her toddler whilst breastfeeding her baby. How can we have it so wrong ?!
Just wondering does anyone know - what is the prevalence rate of Health workers died from Covid-19 in UK compared to general population rate. Would be really interested to know the comparison as keep hearing numbers but the context is not there without comparison.
I work in public health tackling coronavirus so recognise I'm better informed than average. I am shocked by how little friends, family neighbours understand. Please can we have some clear, credible highly visible public messaging. What we have isn't working for people
