Background: I took DD2 to the nurse with a rash this week and she told me I should have seen a HV about it. Even if I ignore that a rash might be meningitis, scarlet fever and other serious things, our local HV team is so under staffed (with appalling admin support too) that I'd be lucky to get an appointment within a fortnight.
Made me think though - I always got the impression HVs are for developmental and growth stuff rather than medical. Did I get that wrong?
