We are the Harrogate & District NHS Foundation Trust Northumberland 0-19 (25) Service and we are contacting you to update you on the development of our digital support for all parents/carers and young people in Northumberland.
Below is a link to find out more about us and what we offer in Northumberland.
Healthy Families Northumberland – Harrogate and District NHS Foundation Trust (hdft.nhs.uk)
An exciting development within our service is the new Digital offer. (Please find our flyer attached). You will see we have a which has a range of national and local information for families, all in one place, covering lots of health information. Within the App, we have a unique ‘Health Chat’ option to enable parents/carers to direct message our service which is sent to either our 0-5 (Health Visitor) Duty Team or our 5-19/25 (School Nurse) Duty Team. This is available Monday to Friday 9.00 -17.00.
Below is a link to our Facebook page where we share lots of health advice, as well as links to local services and events. You are welcome to ‘like’ our Facebook page and we will share posts from your Facebook page, unless you let us know otherwise.
It would be great to get as many parents/carers and young people as possible to have access to these resources in Northumberland, and we would greatly appreciate if you could share it with your service users, colleagues, and partners. Please encourage everyone to download the App and give us follow on Facebook.
Feel free to print the flyer attached to display in any communal areas and we would love it if you could share it on any of your digital platforms. You are also welcome to use the video attached on any screens you may have in your communal areas, as well as on digital platforms. You will see there is a smaller version of the QR code (attached) that you are welcome to print, cut and handout to anyone you feel would benefit from accessing our Digital offer.
Our aim is that every family in Northumberland will have access to this fantastic digital offer to support their health & wellbeing.
If you have any questions or comments, please don’t hesitate to get in touch.
Kind regards
NHS HDFT Northumberland 0-19 Service
