Healthy Family Teams are part of the Healthy Families Programme. This brings together care provided by the Specialist Public Health Practitioners and their teams. These used to be known as Health Visitors and School Nurses. It also includes the Family Nurse Partnership Programme for young parents and the National Child Measurement Programme. Each team of practitioners and support staff have responsibility for a certain area and work across the 0-19 years age. These are known as ‘Healthy Family Teams’.

It also covers expectant mums and young people attending Nottinghamshire schools up to the age of 19 years.
