PC offered by Health visitors teams (HVs) is limited, despite HVs being ideally placed to be part of this pathway through their universal and timely reach to all families. There is an opportunity to strengthen PC advice and continuity between midwifery and HVs, by building on the successful iHV innovation in SRH project (2021). This project will explore HVs current practice, alongside the barriers and enablers to extending the HVs universal role in PC to include advice on contraceptive options and potential for prescribing. These insights will inform the co-production of a bespoke PC training programme for HVs, in partnership with Teesside University. 50 HVs will complete training as part of the HV course. These HVs have the potential to reach over 1000 families in the year post training. An evaluation will inform local commissioning plans and system development. This work will support the national priority to reduce the burden of unplanned pregnancies.
