Child Health Surveillance |
| Developmental checks on the under fives are
important. The details are set out in the "Red book" that is
the parent held record. Each child that is born or an under five moving
into this practice is contacted by a health visitor to make sure
progress with the aid of the Red Book is up to date. This includes
immunisations.
Some medical checks are included and done by doctors certified to undertake Child Health Surveillance. At Keyworth this is Dr Doug Jenkinson, Dr Jill Langridge and Dr Julie O'Donoghue. These doctors work in close association with the health visitors to provide a comprehensive and cohesive service. Family
