The Healthy Child Programme (HCP) is the national evidence-based framework for the delivery of universal public health services for all children and families from conception to 19 years. The HCP model and commissioning guides were updated in May 2021 outlining a vision of a modern health visiting and school nursing service that flexibly to need, to offer every family a programme of screening, developmental reviews and information and guidance to support parenting and healthy choices. The programme supports healthy pregnancy, children's early development and readiness for school, support for children and young people (CYP) in and out of school settings and reducing health inequalities and vulnerabilities. The 0 to 5 element of the HCP is led by Health Visitors and the 5 to 19 element is led by Specialist Community Public Health Nursing (SCPHN), utilising a skill mix workforce, including (but not limited to) community staff nurses and nursery nurses and contribution from a range of delivery partners. The HCP model covers 4 levels of service, referred to as Community, Universal, Targeted and Specialist. An integrated 0 to 19 years public health service across Oxfordshire will include the 5 mandated developmental reviews for 0 to 5 years and nationally recommended contacts for 0 to 19 years, a Family Nurse Partnership (FNP) programme or local equivalent, Vision Screening for 4 to 5 year olds, the National Child Measurement Programme (NCMP), and a Personal Safety/Protective Behaviours programme. It is expected that the service will provide a seamless care pathway from 0 to 19 years. The contract period will be 5 years and 6 months (66 months) with an option for the Council to extend the contract period by a further 2 years (24 months). The contract is anticipated to commence on 1 October 2023 with service delivery commencing from 1 April 2024.
