Health Visitor to School Nurse Transfer Guidelines (G250)
This guidance document outlines the minimum standard expected of Specialist Community Public Health Nurses - School Nurses and Health Visitors - when transferring records prior to a child commencing in full time education. It outlines the goals of the transfer process and the roles that each professional concerned plays within that process. This document supports a commitment to evidence-based care. It is expected that Specialist Community Public Health Nurses employed by DCHS exercise professional judgement and have clear, documented evidence of the rationale for their decision making if they feel that it is not in the family’s or child’s interest to follow the SOP or policy has not been followed. It is also expected that Specialist Community Public Health Nurses exercise sound professional judgement (following their assessment) in deciding whether a client/family should receive additional support and intervention. This Standard Operating Procedure should be used in conjunction with other DCHS Childrens and DCHS Trust policies along with The NMC Code.
