Health Visitor.

What is he going on about? It’s bloomin obvious what happened, it’s the same conclusions at each serious case review done 😡 Invest in community health & social care! Better joint up working between services & time to do our work properly! Prevention is better than cure🙄

[iHV @iHealthVisiting]

PM commits to leaving no stone unturned to find out what went wrong for little Arthur- will he also commit to investing in the infrastructure to put things right? #healthvisiting #schoolnursing

Everyone should read this. I met a family from Hong Kong today, they thought Health Visiting was a brilliant idea!

Science to prove the power of mother/infant love 🥰

[Dr Mary O'Kane @MOKEarlyYears]

Isn't this the most beautiful image!

Not quite what it seems however. It is a real MRI image of mother and baby. In fact, neuroscientist Rebecca Saxe from MIT who worked to create this image, is also the mother in it, curled up inside the tube with her infant son.

What if the #DrugsInBreastmilk service wasn't around? There's often no need to stop #breastfeeding to take meds. Please RT & raise awareness of support available:

Wow! This still makes me so sad ☹️

Victoria Adjo Climbié would have been 30 today! She died aged 8.
She was tortured and murdered by her great-aunt and her boyfriend. Her death led to a public inquiry and produced major changes in child protection policies in the United Kingdom.

You may have seen the #Budget2021 pledge to allocate £50million to #BreastfeedingSupport.
It is our hope that this funding will go some way towards changing the current inequity of support across the UK. You can read more on our blog, here:

No other country has such a dedicated service- we are taken for granted generally, but as soon as there’s a problem ‘health visitor will do it’ and, yes, we do even if it means squeezing it in our diaries & putting our own well-being second.

[iHV @iHealthVisiting]

700 leading children’s organisations called on the Govt to rebuild health visiting- they can’t all be wrong. They understand that HVs provide a vital infrastructure needed for the early years. It’s time for the govt to deliver on their commitment to rebuild HV @RishiSunak

[The Breastfeeding Network UK @BfN_UK]

We ❤️ this #breastfeeding statue at @V_and_A museum, sculpted by Dalou c.1873. It's wonderful to think that feeding a child can look identical almost 150 years later.
We'd love to hear about your favourite representations of breastfeeding in art - let us know below 🤱🎨🎭✒️🎶

I feel like we are an endangered species! When I talk to people from other countries, I explain my job & they think it’s a brilliant idea. People don’t appreciate what they have until it’s gone #InvestInHealthVisiting

[iHV @iHealthVisiting]

iHV launches two new infographics setting out “Who are #HealthVisitors and what do they do?” and “It’s time to invest in #HealthVisiting because…”. https://t.co/sYp5aLA4qS

@Pauline36266586 @KeelyTongue @rebeccasobey70 @aisdip @AHague1 @loubarrett73 I might show this to one of our fellow HCP that asked us to ‘pop out & do a mummy visit’ 🤦🏻‍♀️

There was a great response to my last tweet saying that facilitation skills are a "must-have" superpower for leaders. You can download an outstanding free eBook on the power of facilitation here: https://t.co/mnH5MshgGC Thanks @FacPower for your generosity in sharing this wisdom

Did you know there's a patron saint of #breastfeeding? Some people find comfort praying to St Giles for breastfeeding issues.
We 💜 all breastfeeding support, but we're not sure he's a trained peer supporter...😉 Call @NBHelpline if you'd like to speak to one for info & support.

[Maternity Action @MaternityAction]

Are you a midwife or HCP working with Afghan women in the UK?

We're running a series of FREE webinars to help you understand access to housing, support and primary healthcare for Afghan women who are pregnant or new mothers.

More dates to follow! https://t.co/odo1ak6en3

[The Smallest Things @_SmallestThings]

Feeding a baby born too soon can be one of the biggest challenges parents face in NICU, from expressing round the clock to establishing breastfeeding.
Parents share their stories, tips and advice for families in neonatal care.
