SENIOR health professionals say babies and children will be put in danger by Hampshire Council funding cuts. They are pressing Hampshire County Council to think again about its controversial plans to slash its public health budget. The council proposes to reduce the 0-19 Public Health Nursing Service budget by £2.09 million per year, cutting 47 posts or around 12 per cent of the service. The cuts would mean fewer health visitors and school nurses and so less support for vulnerable families. For children 0-5 years, all children will only get one face-to-face health review. All other reviews will be risk assessed to decide whether they should be completed face-to-face, by video or by telephone. In the past many children have received numerous supportive visits by health visitors.
