Kirklees 0-19 Service

The Kirklees 0-19 service is a key provider of the Healthy Child Programme, which aims to improve health outcomes for children and their families. We work closely with other local services to ensure families receive the right support at the right time. Every family in Kirklees is offered support by the 0-19 service.

The 0-19 service is an integrated team of 0-19 Specialist Practitioners, Health Visitors, School Nurses, Infant Feeding Specialists, Child Development Practitioners, and School Nurse Assistants.

Health Visitors and School Nurses are qualified nurses with a specialist qualification in public health. 0-19 Specialist Practitioners are qualified as either a Health Visitor or School Nurse, but have an additional certification enabling them to support the entire 0-19 age group.

Between the ages of 0-5, you will receive support from either a 0-19 Specialist Practitioner, Health Visitor, or Child Development Practitioner.

From ages 5-19, support is available from either a 0-19 Specialist Practitioner, School Nurse, or School Nurse Assistant.

At Locala Health and Wellbeing we are committed to our patients, and the wider community, is at the heart of all that we do. We want to hear what our patients and communities are saying, and involve you in how our community healthcare services are delivered. There are different ways you can get involved including:

Becoming a member - be better informed about Locala and our services, and receive invitations to complete surveys, attend events, be a mystery shopper, look at patient feedback and join in discussions - you can be involved as much, or as little, as you like.

Volunteering to work directly with our services - you can use your skills and experiences to support our services and benefit our patients.

Visit our 'Tell Us What You Think' - let us know what you think about the services you have used. We do listen and do make changes based on the feedback we get.
