Neonatal Families Ambassadors Training

 

iHV has been supported by the Tiny Lives Trust to develop and offer a programme of training for health visitors to be “Neonatal Families Ambassadors” for their areas. The training has been co-produced by parents and professionals to support health visitors in their role with families.

Who is it for?

Qualified health visitors with an interest in preterm and sick babies, and staff development, will be offered the opportunity to receive additional training to support them to share their learning with their health visitor colleagues to enhance the support health visitor’s offer to these families.

What is it?

The programme of training is underpinned by evidence-based resources that will support health visitors in practice to effectively help families who have had a baby and spent time on a neonatal unit.
