Years model and the Health Visiting service

Neighbourhood Teams• Provides a local service that meets the needs of that

neighbourhood

way, with the client at the centre of planning their own care

• A number of agencies within that neighbourhood work in

partnership to ensure the right care and support is provided to

that individual / family. Reduce duplications, clients not

having to re-tell their story
