Engagment with Children and Young People 2012

Engagement with Children and Young People

April 2012 – May 2012

To improve service provision for parents with children aged 0 to 4 years in the Antrim area, Questionnaires have been developed to identify the needs for these families. Questionnaires will be distributed to parents through Health Visitors and other local Health Professionals. It is anticipated that the questionnaires will provide an evidence base of identified need.

A focus group of parents will be completed on receipt of the questionnaires to further plan for improving services by ensuring the voice of parents are at the centre of the process.
